Subject[PATCH 0/6]nvme-pci: fixes on nvme_timeout and nvme_dev_disable
Date
Hi Christoph, Keith and Sagi

Please consider and comment on the following patchset.
That's really appreciated.

There is a complicated relationship between nvme_timeout and nvme_dev_disable.
- nvme_timeout has to invoke nvme_dev_disable to stop the
controller doing DMA access before free the request.
- nvme_dev_disable has to depend on nvme_timeout to complete
adminq requests to set HMB or delete sq/cq when the controller
has no response.
- nvme_dev_disable will race with nvme_timeout when cancels the
outstanding requests.
We have found some issues introduced by them, please refer the following link

http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-nvme/2018-January/015053.html
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-nvme/2018-January/015276.html
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-nvme/2018-January/015328.html
Even we cannot ensure there is no other issue.

The best way to fix them is to break up the relationship between them.
With this patch, we could avoid nvme_dev_disable to be invoked
by nvme_timeout and eliminate the race between nvme_timeout and
nvme_dev_disable on outstanding requests.


There are 6 patches:

1st ~ 3th patches does some preparation for the 4th one.
4th is to avoid nvme_dev_disable to be invoked by nvme_timeout, and implement
the synchronization between them. More details, please refer to the comment of
this patch.
5th fixes a bug after 4th patch is introduced. It let nvme_delete_io_queues can
only be wakeup by completion path.
6th fixes a bug found when test, it is not related with 4th patch.

This patchset was tested under debug patch for some days.
And some bugfix have been done.
The debug patch and other patches are available in following it branch:
