That should have said fio still runs and it only shuts down when done
I simply dont see the stalls

For Bart's test the underlying scsi-mq driver is what is
regularly
hitting this case in __blk_mq_try_issue_directly():

        if (blk_mq_hctx_stopped(hctx) ||
blk_queue_quiesced(q))

These lockups were all triggered by incorrect handling of
.queue_rq() returning BLK_STS_RESOURCE.

Please be precise, dm_mq_queue_rq()'s return of BLK_STS_RESOURCE?
"Incorrect" because it no longer runs
blk_mq_delay_run_hw_queue()?

In what I wrote I was referring to both dm_mq_queue_rq() and
scsi_queue_rq().
With "incorrect" I meant that queue lockups are introduced that
make user
space processes unkillable. That's a severe bug.

And yet Laurence cannot reproduce any such lockups with your test...

Are you absolutely certain this patch doesn't help you?
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10174037/

If it doesn't then that is actually very useful to know.

We have time to get this right, please stop hyperventilating
about
"regressions".

Sorry Mike but that's something I consider as an unfair comment. If
Ming and
you work on patches together, it's your job to make sure that no
regressions
are introduced. Instead of blaming me because I report these
regressions you
should be grateful that I take the time and effort to report these
regressions
early. And since you are employed by a large organization that
sells Linux
support services, your employer should invest in developing test
cases that
reach a higher coverage of the dm, SCSI and block layer code. I
don't think
that it's normal that my tests discovered several issues that were
not
discovered by Red Hat's internal test suite. That's something Red
Hat has to
address.

You have no self-awareness of just how mypoic you're being about
this.

I'm not ignoring or blaming you for your test no longer passing.  Far
from it.  I very much want to fix this.  But I want it fixed in a way
that doesn't paper over the real bug(s) while also introducing blind
queue runs that compromise the blk-mq RESTART code's ability to work
as
intended.

I'd have thought you could appreciate this.  We need a root cause on
this, not hand-waving justifications on why problematic delayed queue
runs are correct.

Please just focus on helping Laurence get his very capable testbed to
reproduce this issue.  Once we can reproduce these "unkillable"
"stalls"
in-house it'll be _much_ easier to analyze and fix.

Thanks,
Mike

Hello Bart

OK, I ran 5 at once of 5 separate mount points.
I am using 4k block sizes
Its solid consistent for me. No stalls no gaps.

[global]
name=02-mq
filename=fio-output-02-mq.txt
rw=randwrite
verify=md5
;rwmixread=60
;rwmixwrite=40
bs=4K
;direct=1
;numjobs=4
;time_based=1
runtime=120

[file1]
size=3G
ioengine=libaio
iodepth=16

I watch I/O and I see it ramp up but fio still runs and it kind of
shuts down.

#!/bin/bash
for i in 1 2 3 4 5
do
        cd /data-$i
        fio /root/srp-test.lobe/fio_tests/02-mq 1>/data-$i.out 2>&1 &
done
