block: Prevent potential deadlock in blk_revalidate_disk_zones()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The function blk_revalidate_disk_zones() calls the function
disk_update_zone_resources() after freezing the device queue. In turn,
disk_update_zone_resources() calls queue_limits_start_update() which
takes a queue limits mutex lock, resulting in the ordering:
q->q_usage_counter check -> q->limits_lock. However, the usual ordering
is to always take a queue limit lock before freezing the queue to commit
the limits updates, e.g., the code pattern:

lim = queue_limits_start_update(q);
...
blk_mq_freeze_queue(q);
ret = queue_limits_commit_update(q, &lim);
blk_mq_unfreeze_queue(q);

Thus, blk_revalidate_disk_zones() introduces a potential circular
locking dependency deadlock that lockdep sometimes catches with the
splat:

                *** DEADLOCK ***

Prevent this issue by moving the calls to blk_mq_freeze_queue() and
blk_mq_unfreeze_queue() around the call to queue_limits_commit_update()
in disk_update_zone_resources(). In case of revalidation failure, the
call to disk_free_zone_resources() in blk_revalidate_disk_zones()
is still done with the queue frozen as before.
