[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [PATCH] xen/blkback: Prevent missed completion when draining I/O
xen_blk_drain_io() sets drain before checking inflight.
xen_blkbk_unmap_and_respond_callback() decrements inflight with
atomic_dec_and_test() before checking drain.
The pre-wait condition check was added to avoid missing a completion, but
atomic_set() is unordered. With one I/O in flight, the drain path can set
drain to 1 and read inflight as 1 before the completion decrement. The
completion path then decrements inflight to 0 but can still read drain as
0. It skips complete(), so the drain path waits until the timeout despite
no I/O remaining.
Add a full barrier between setting drain and reading inflight.
atomic_dec_and_test() already provides full ordering on the completion
side.
Fixes: 6927d92091df ("xen/blkback: Fix two races in the handling of barrier
requests.")

Found by auditing atomic operations used for synchronization.
