From 2645672ffe21f0a1c139bfbc05ad30fd4e4f2583 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jens Axboe Date: Tue, 21 Jun 2022 10:03:57 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] block: pop cached rq before potentially blocking rq_qos_throttle() If rq_qos_throttle() ends up blocking, then we will have invalidated and flushed our current plug. Since blk_mq_get_cached_request() hasn't popped the cached request off the plug list just yet, we end holding a pointer to a request that is no longer valid. This insta-crashes with rq->mq_hctx being NULL in the validity checks just after. Pop the request off the cached list before doing rq_qos_throttle() to avoid using a potentially stale request.
