When this line tries to cancel a running map work, i.e. when ufshpb_get_map_req() calls below lines, it will be stuck at blk_queue_enter(). req = blk_get_request(hpb->sdev_ufs_lu->request_queue, REQ_OP_SCSI_IN, 0); Please check block layer power management, and see also commit d55d15a33 ("scsi: block: Do not accept any requests while suspended").I am agree with your comment. How about add BLK_MQ_REQ_NOWAIT flag on blk_get_request() to avoid hang?That won't work - BLK_MQ_REQ_NOWAIT allows one to fast fail from blk_mq_get_tag(), but blk_queue_enter() comes before __blk_mq_alloc_request();In blk_queue_enter(), BLK_MQ_REQ_NOWAIT flag can make error than wait rpm resume. Please refer following code.Oops, sorry, my memory needs to be refreshed on that part. But will BLK_MQ_REQ_NOWAIT flag breaks your original purpose? When runtime suspend is out of the picture, if traffic is heavy on the request queue, map_work() will be stopped frequently once it is not able to get a request from the queue - that shall pull down the efficiency of one map_work(), that may hurt random performance...
I think deadlock prevention is the most important. So I want to add BLK_MQ_REQ_NOWAIT flag. Starvation of map request can be distinguish by return value of blk_get_request(). -EWOULDBLOCK means there is no available tags for this request. -EBUSY means failed on blk_queue_enter(). To overcome starvation of map request, we can try N times in heavy traffic situation (maybe N=3?). Thanks, Daejun
