virtio-blk: Reset device after blk_cleanup_queue()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
blk_cleanup_queue() will call blk_drian_queue() to drain all the
requests before queue DEAD marking. If we reset the device before
blk_cleanup_queue() the drain would fail.

1) if the queue is stopped in do_virtblk_request() because device is
full, the q->request_fn() will not be called.

blk_drain_queue() {
   while(true) {
      ...
      if (!list_empty(&q->queue_head))
        __blk_run_queue(q) {
	    if (queue is not stoped)
		q->request_fn()
	}
      ...
   }
}

Do no reset the device before blk_cleanup_queue() gives the chance to
start the queue in interrupt handler blk_done().

2) In commit b79d866, We abort requests
dispatched to driver before blk_cleanup_queue(). There is a race if
requests are dispatched to driver after the abort and before the queue
DEAD mark. To fix this, instead of aborting the requests explicitly, we
can just reset the device after after blk_cleanup_queue so that the
device can complete all the requests before queue DEAD marking in the
drain process.
