With simple debug code, I found there are exactly nr_sleep - nr_wakeup of theads in D state. So there are missed wakeup. $ dmesg | grep nr_sleep [ 52.917115] ---> nr_sleep=1046, nr_wakeup=873, delta=173 $ vmstat 1 1 173 0 712640 24292 96172 0 0 0 0 419 757 0 0 0 100 0 To quote Tejun: Ah, okay, freed_request() wakes up single waiter with the assumption that after the wakeup there will at least be one successful allocation which in turn will continue the wakeup chain until the wait list is empty - ie. waiter wakeup is dependent on successful request allocation happening after each wakeup. With queue marked dead, any woken up waiter fails the allocation path, so the wakeup chaining is lost and we're left with hung waiters. What we need is wake_up_all() after drain completion. This patch fixes the missed wakeup by waking up all the theads which are sleeping on wait queue after queue drain. Changes in v2: Drop waitqueue_active() optimization Acked-by: Tejun Heo Signed-off-by: Asias He Fixed a bug by me, where stacked devices would oops on calling blk_drain_queue() since ->rq.wait[] do not get initialized unless it's a full queue setup.
