[PATCH 4.18 090/350] nvmet-rdma: use a private workqueue for delete

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sun Nov 11 2018 - 17:30:18 EST


4.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sagi Grimberg <sagi@xxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 2acf70ade79d26b97611a8df52eb22aa33814cd4 ]

Queue deletion is done asynchronous when the last reference on the queue
is dropped. Thus, in order to make sure we don't over allocate under a
connect/disconnect storm, we let queue deletion complete before making
forward progress.

However, given that we flush the system_wq from rdma_cm context which
runs from a workqueue context, we can have a circular locking complaint
[1]. Fix that by using a private workqueue for queue deletion.
