"megaraid_sas" driver calls “scsi_scan_host()” to discover SCSI
devices. In this failure case, scsi_scan_host() is taking a long time
to complete, hence causing delay in system boot.
With "host_tagset" enabled, scsi_scan_host() takes around 20 mins.
With "host_tagset" disabled, scsi_scan_host() takes upto 5-8 mins.

The scan time depends upon the number of scsi channels and devices per
scsi channel is exposed by LLD.
megaraid_sas driver exposes 4 channels and 128 drives per channel.

Each target scan takes 2 seconds (in case of failure with host_tagset
enabled). That's why driver load completes after ~20 minutes. See
below:

[ 299.725271] kobject: 'target18:0:96': free name
[ 301.681267] kobject: 'target18:0:97' (00000000987c7f11):
kobject_cleanup, parent 0000000000000000
[ 301.681269] kobject: 'target18:0:97' (00000000987c7f11): calling
ktype release
[ 301.681273] kobject: 'target18:0:97': free name
[ 303.575268] kobject: 'target18:0:98' (00000000a8c34149):
kobject_cleanup, parent 0000000000000000

In Qian's kernel .config, async scsi scan is disabled so in failure
case SCSI scan type is synchronous.
Below is the stack trace when scsi_scan_host() hangs:

[<0>] scsi_scan_host+0x198/0x1c0

This issue hits when lock related debugging is enabled in kernel config.
kernel .config parameters(may be subset of this list) are required to
hit the issue:

CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT=y
CONFIG_UNINLINE_SPIN_UNLOCK=y
CONFIG_LOCK_STAT=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_RT_MUTEXES=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_WW_MUTEX_SLOWPATH=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_RWSEMS=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=y
CONFIG_LOCKDEP=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP=y
CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS=y
CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS_NMI=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT=y
CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=y
CONFIG_PREEMPTIRQ_TRACEPOINTS=y

When scsi_scan_host() hangs, there are no outstanding IOs with
megaraid_sas driver-firmware stack as SCSI "host_busy" counter and
megaraid_sas driver's internal counter are "0".
Key takeaways:
1. Issue is observed when lock related debugging is enabled so issue
is seen in debug environment.
2. Issue seems to be related to generic shared "host_tagset" code
whenever some kind of kernel debugging is enabled. We do not see an
immediate reason to hide this issue through disabling the
"host_tagset" feature.

John,
Issue may hit on ARM platform too using Qian's .config file with other
adapters (e.g. hisi_sas) as well. So I feel disabling “host_tagset” in
megaraid_sas driver will not help. It requires debugging from the
“Entire Shared host tag feature” perspective as scsi_scan_host()
waittime aggravates when "host_tagset" is enabled. Also, I am doing
parallel debugging and if I find anything useful, I will share.

Qian,
I need full dmesg logs from your setup with
megaraid_sas.host_tagset_enable=1 and
megaraid_sas.host_tagset_enable=0. Please wait for a long time. I just
want to make sure that whatever you observe is the same as mine.

Thanks,
Sumit
