There is a case which will lead to io stall. The case is described as follows. /test1 |-subtest1 /test2 |-subtest2 And subtest1 and subtest2 each has 32 queued bios already. Now upgrade to max. In throtl_upgrade_state, it will try to dispatch bios as follows: 1) tg=subtest1, do nothing; 2) tg=test1, transfer 32 queued bios from subtest1 to test1; no pending left, no need to schedule next dispatch; 3) tg=subtest2, do nothing; 4) tg=test2, transfer 32 queued bios from subtest2 to test2; no pending left, no need to schedule next dispatch; 5) tg=/, transfer 8 queued bios from test1 to /, 8 queued bios from test2 to /, 8 queued bios from test1 to /, and 8 queued bios from test2 to /; note that test1 and test2 each still has 16 queued bios left; 6) tg=/, try to schedule next dispatch, but since disptime is now (update in tg_update_disptime, wait=0), pending timer is not scheduled in fact; 7) In throtl_upgrade_state it totally dispatches 32 queued bios and with 32 left. test1 and test2 each has 16 queued bios; 8) throtl_pending_timer_fn sees the left over bios, but could do nothing, because throtl_select_dispatch returns 0, and test1/test2 has no pending tg. The blktrace shows the following: 8,32 0 0 2.539007641 0 m N throtl upgrade to max 8,32 0 0 2.539072267 0 m N throtl /test2 dispatch nr_queued=16 read=0 write=16 8,32 7 0 2.539077142 0 m N throtl /test1 dispatch nr_queued=16 read=0 write=16 So force schedule dispatch if there are pending children.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
