[PATCH] sbitmap: fix permanent io blocking caused by insufficient wakeup times

From: Liu Song
Date: Fri Sep 16 2022 - 22:33:34 EST


From: Liu Song <liusong@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

In "sbitmap_queue_clear_batch", a batch of completed requests may be
processed at once, but "wait_cnt" is only reduced once by
"sbitmap_queue_wake_up".
In our environment, if "/sys/block/nvme0n1/nr_requests" is adjusted to
32, it is easily because no tag and then enter the waiting situation,
if continue change "nr_requests" to 1023 at this time, it will basically
fall into the situation of permanent blocking. Because there will be
"blk_freeze_queue" in "blk_mq_update_nr_requests", which will prevent
any new requests, but due to insufficient wake-up, there are tasks
waiting for wake-up, but no new wake-up opportunities will be generated
at this time, so this situation needs to be repaired.
