           Summary: Kernel hang in spin_unlock_irq from scsi_request_fn from
                    do_IRQ
           Product: IO/Storage
           Version: 2.5
     KernelVersion: 2.6.28-rc3
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: SCSI
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]

Latest working kernel version: commit c8d7aa after 2.6.28-rc2 Earliest failing kernel version: commit 920da6 after 2.6.28-rc2
Distribution: Debian
Hardware Environment: sata_sil24, amd64, 2cpu
Software Environment: 64bit kernel, 32bit userspace, preemptible kernel Problem Description:

When I/O is under stress, from time to time CPU1 hangs, most probably due to endless stream of interrupts. Backtrace printed either by kernel's softlockup detection or alt-sysrq-p is below (written down; I/O is dead when this happens).

_spin_unlock_irq + 0x30 (after sti)
scsi_request_fn + 0x1b9 (after spin_unlock_irq(shost->host_lock) at not_ready:)
blk_invoke_request_fn
__blk_runqueue
scsi_run_queue
scsi_next_command
scsi_end_request
scsi_io_completion
scsi_finish_command
scsi_softirq_done
blk_done_softirq
__do_softirq
call_softirq
do_softirq
irqexit
do_IRQ
ret_from_intr
<EOI>
native_safe_halt
trace_hardirqs_on
default_idle
c1e_idle
cpu_idle
start_secondary

Steps to reproduce:

It seems to occur under heavy I/O (updatedb, dumping core from ~3GB app), but I was not able to trigger it reliably - most reliable is hard resetting box, then it occurs in ~80% cases when replaying journals on disks connected to sata_sil24 (through PMP, but problem does not seem to occur on 2.6.28-rc2 with Jens's PMP patches).

------- Comment #1 from [email protected] 2008-11-09 01:57 ------- Apparently my lower bound test kernel did not had Jens's patch to use tagged queuing from SCSI layer applied. I've discovered reliable test case (write 4GB of data concurrently to every attached disk), and found that reverting all 4 SATA tagged queueing related checkins gets rid of the problem:

This looks identical to

Could you see if this refinement of the discussed patches fixes it for you?
