[PATCH 5/5] blk-mq: Replace tags->lock with SRCU for tag iterators

From: Ming Lei <hidden>
Date: 2025-08-01 11:45:18
Subsystem: block layer, the rest · Maintainers: Jens Axboe, Linus Torvalds

Replace the spinlock in blk_mq_find_and_get_req() with an SRCU read lock
around the tag iterators.

This is done by:

- Holding the SRCU read lock in blk_mq_queue_tag_busy_iter(),
blk_mq_tagset_busy_iter(), and blk_mq_hctx_has_requests().

- Removing the now-redundant tags->lock from blk_mq_find_and_get_req().

This change improves performance by replacing a spinlock with a more
scalable SRCU lock, and fixes lockup issue in scsi_host_busy() in case of
shost->host_blocked.

Meantime it becomes possible to use blk_mq_in_driver_rw() for io
accounting.
