From: Yu Kuai <redacted> 'pers->prepare_suspend' is introduced to prevent a deadlock for raid456, this change prepares to clean this up in later patches while refactoring mddev_suspend(). Specifically allow reshape to make progress while waiting for 'active_io' to be 0.Hi Kuaiquoted
From my side, I can't understand the comments. The change hasrelationship with pers->prepare_suspend? And why this change can affect reshape? If this change indeed can affect these two things, can you explain more?
First of all, 'prepare_suspend' is used to fix a deadlock in raid456:
1) suspend is waiting for normal io to be done.
mddev_suspend
mddev->suspended++ -> new sync_thread can't start
percpu_ref_kill(active_io)
wait_event(percpu_ref_is_zero(active_io))
2) normal io is waiting for reshape to make progress.
3) reshape is waiting for suspended array to be resumed.
md_check_recovery
if (is_md_suspended(mddev))
return
Then prepare_suspend will failed the io that is waiting for reshape to
make progress:
mddev_suspend
mddev->suspended++
percpu_ref_kill(active_io)
-> new io will be stuck in md_handle_request
pers->prepare_suspend() -> raid5_prepare_suspend
-> wake_up(wait_for_overlap)
// woke up
raid5_make_request
make_stripe_request
!reshape_inprogress(mddev) && reshape_disabled(mddev)
// return io error for the io that is waiting for
// reshape to make progress
wait_event(percpu_ref_is_zero(active_io))
With this patch and the new api to suspend array:
mddev_suspend
percpu_ref_kill(active_io)
wait_event(percpu_ref_is_zero(active_io))
-> while waiting for normal io to be done, new sync_thread can still
start, and reshape can still make progress.
mddev->suspended++

Because mddev->suspended must be true when active_io is dying.
In the new api, active_io is killed before increasing suspended, and the difference is that the timing that array is suspended will be delayed from the start of mddev_suspend() to when all dispatched io is done. I think this is OK because this doesn't change behaviour when mddev_suspend() returns. Thanks, Kuai `
