Our test report a problem:

------------[ cut here ]------------
list_del corruption. next->prev should be ffff888127e0c4b0, but was ffff888127e090b0

We haven't reporduced it yet, but we think this is due to parent iocg is
freed before child iocg, and then in ioc_timer_fn, walk_list is
corrupted.

1) Remove child cgroup can concurrent with remove parent cgroup, and
ioc_pd_free for parent iocg can be called before child iocg. This can be
fixed by moving the handle of walk_list to ioc_pd_offline, since that
offline from child is ensured to be called before parent.

2) ioc_pd_free can be triggered from both removing device and removing
cgroup, this patch fix the problem by deleting timer before deactivating
policy, so that free parent iocg first in this case won't matter.

Which you already did in a previous patch, right?

Okay, so, yeah, css's pin parents but blkg's don't. I think the right thing
to do here is making sure that a child blkg pins its parent (and eventually
ioc).

I don't about this workaround. Let's fix properly?

Ok, and by the way, is there any reason to delete timer after
deactivate policy? This seems a litter wreid to me.

ioc->running is what controls whether the timer gets rescheduled or not. If
we don't shut that down, the timer may as well get rescheduled after being
deleted. Here, the only extra activation point is IO issue which shouldn't
trigger during rq_qos_exit, so the ordering shouldn't matter but this is the
right order for anything which can get restarted.

Thanks.

Thanks for the explanation.

I'm trying to figure out how to make sure child blkg pins it's parent,
btw, do you think following cleanup make sense?

It's on you to explain why any change that you're suggesting is better and
safe. I know it's not intentional but you're repeatedly suggesting operation
reorderings in code paths which are really sensitive to ordering at least
seemingly without putting much effort into thinking through the side
effects. This costs disproportionate amount of review bandwidth, and
increases the chance of new subtle bugs. Can you please slow down a bit and
be more deliberate?

Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll pay close attention to explain this "why
the change is better and safe". And sorry for the review pressure.

Sorry about this, actually it's can be ensured that pd_offline
from child will be called before parent. Hence just moving he handle of
walk_list to ioc_pd_offline can fix this problem thoroughly.
