From e3f858d5a4fc1f8d7d68f27dcbf95f2f1ec4f68b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Junichi Nomura Date: Tue, 26 May 2015 08:25:54 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] dm: run queue on re-queue Without kicking queue, requeued request may stay forever in the queue if there are no other I/O activities to the device. The original error had been in v2.6.39 with commit c69163c6522d ("block: remove per-queue plugging"), which replaced conditional plugging by periodic runqueue. Commit 567cc26c818f in v4.1-rc1 removed the periodic runqueue and the problem started to manifest. Fixes: 567cc26c818f ("dm: don't schedule delayed run of the queue if nothing to do") Signed-off-by: Jun'ichi Nomura Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer --- drivers/md/dm.c | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff --git a/drivers/md/dm.c b/drivers/md/dm.c index a930b72314ac9..0bf79a0bad374 100644 --- a/drivers/md/dm.c +++ b/drivers/md/dm.c @@ -1164,6 +1164,7 @@ static void old_requeue_request(struct request *rq) spin_lock_irqsave(q->queue_lock, flags); blk_requeue_request(q, rq); + blk_run_queue_async(q); spin_unlock_irqrestore(q->queue_lock, flags); } -- 2.39.5
