From c0c362b60e259e3480a36ef70280d545818844f0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo Date: Mon, 6 Sep 2010 17:57:14 +0200 Subject: libata: implement cross-port EH exclusion In libata, the non-EH code paths should always take and release ap->lock explicitly when accessing hardware or shared data structures. However, once EH is active, it's assumed that the port is owned by EH and EH methods don't explicitly take ap->lock unless race from irq handler or other code paths are expected. However, libata EH didn't guarantee exclusion among EHs for ports of the same host. IOW, multiple EHs may execute in parallel on multiple ports of the same controller. In many cases, especially in SATA, the ports are completely independent of each other and this doesn't cause problems; however, there are cases where different ports share the same resource, which lead to obscure timing related bugs such as the one fixed by commit 213373cf (ata_piix: fix locking around SIDPR access). This patch implements exclusion among EHs of the same host. When EH begins, it acquires per-host EH ownership by calling ata_eh_acquire(). When EH finishes, the ownership is released by calling ata_eh_release(). EH ownership is also released whenever the EH thread goes to sleep from ata_msleep() or explicitly and reacquired after waking up. This ensures that while EH is actively accessing the hardware, it has exclusive access to it while allowing EHs to interleave and progress in parallel as they hit waiting stages, which dominate the time spent in EH. This achieves cross-port EH exclusion without pervasive and fragile changes while still allowing parallel EH for the most part.
