#1340200 — Freezable workqueue blocks non-freezable workqueue during the system resume process

SubjectFreezable workqueue blocks non-freezable workqueue during the system resume process
Message-ID<r5bPH-7KL-1@gated-at.bofh.it>
Hi Tejun Heo and Florian Mickler,

I have a question that during the system resume process, the freezable
workqueue can be thawed if there is a non-freezable workqueue is
blocked (At uninterruptable state)?

My case like below, I have a USB OTG (Micro-AB) cable is at USB
Micro-B port, and there is a USB driver on it, and un-plug this
cable can wake up system from the suspend. There is a non-freezable
workqueue ci_otg will be scheduled after disconnecting OTG cable,
and in its worker ci_otg_work, it will try to disconnect USB drive,
and flush disk information. But flush disk information is done by
freezable workqueue writeback, it seeems workqueue writeback is
never got chance to execute, the workqueue ci_otg is waiting there
forever, and the system is deadlock.

Both change workqueue ci_otg as freezable or change workqueue writeback
as non-freezable can fix this problem.

The call stack like below:

Please ignore it, the system is locked at driver's resume,
maybe at scsi or usb driver, so of cos, the freezable processes
can't be thawed.

These operations probably are not safe while the system is resuming.

It sounds like making ci_otg freezable is the easiest solution.

You might want to complain to the block-layer people about this.  I 
don't know if anything can be done to fix it.

Or maybe flush_work and flush_delayed_work can be changed to avoid 
blocking if the workqueue is frozen.  Tejun?

I have a patch to show the root cause of this issue.

I don't get it.  Why would it deadlock?  Shouldn't things get rolling
once the workqueues are thawed?

Thanks.

Hi Tejun,

The workqueue writeback can't be thawed due to driver's resume
(dpm_complete) is lock nested, and can't be finished.

Ugh... that's nasty.  I wonder whether the right thing to do is making
writeback workers non-freezable.  IOs are supposed to be blocked from
lower layer anyway.  Jan, what do you think?

Thanks.

Well no, at least currently IO is not blocked in lower layers AFAIK - for
that you'd need to freeze block devices & filesystems and there are issues
with that (Jiri Kosina was the last one which was trying to make this work
AFAIR). And I think you need to stop writeback (and generally any IO) to be
generated so that it doesn't interact in a strange way with device drivers
being frozen. So IMO until suspend freezes filesystems & devices properly
you have to freeze writeback workqueue.
