We met a crash issue when hot-insert a nvme device, blk_mq_tag_to_rq()
returned null(req=null), then crash happened in nvme_end_request():
req = blk_mq_tag_to_rq();
struct nvme_request *rq = nvme_req(req); //rq = req + 1
rq->result = result; <==crash here!!!

The analysis of the possible cause of above crash as below.
According to the test for io queues, in nvme_pci_enable(), 'dev->q_depth'
is set to 1024; in nvme_create_io_queues()->nvme_alloc_queue(),
'nvmeq->q_depth' is set to 'dev->q_depth'; in nvme_dev_add(),
'dev->tagset.queue_depth' is set to 1023:
dev->tagset.queue_depth = min_t(unsigned int, dev->q_depth,
BLK_MQ_MAX_DEPTH) - 1;
So we got below values for multiple depth:
dev->q_depth = 1024
dev->tagset.queue_depth = 1023
nvmeq->q_depth = 1024
In blk_mq_alloc_rqs(), it allocated 1023(dev->tagset.queue_depth) rqs for
one hw queue. In nvme_alloc_queue(), it allocated 1024(nvmeq->q_depth)
cqes for nvmeq->cqes[]. When process cqe in nvme_handle_cqe(), it get it
by:
struct nvme_completion *cqe = &nvmeq->cqes[idx];
We also added below prints in nvme_handle_cqe() and blk_mq_tag_to_rq():
static inline void nvme_handle_cqe(struct nvme_queue *nvmeq, u16 idx)
{
volatile struct nvme_completion *cqe = &nvmeq->cqes[idx];
struct request *req;
//debug print
dev_warn(nvmeq->dev->ctrl.device,
"command_id %d completed on queue %d, nvmeq q_depth %d,
nvme tagset q_depth %d, admin q_depth %d\n",
cqe->command_id, le16_to_cpu(cqe->sq_id),
nvmeq->q_depth, nvmeq->dev->tagset.queue_depth,
nvmeq->dev->admin_tagset.queue_depth);
if (unlikely(cqe->command_id >= nvmeq->q_depth)) {
dev_warn(nvmeq->dev->ctrl.device,
"invalid id %d completed on queue %d\n",
cqe->command_id, le16_to_cpu(cqe->sq_id));
return;
}
... ...
req = blk_mq_tag_to_rq(nvme_queue_tagset(nvmeq), cqe->command_id);
... ...
}
struct request *blk_mq_tag_to_rq(struct blk_mq_tags *tags,unsigned int tag)
{
//debug print
printk("tag, nr_tags:%d %d\n", tag, tags->nr_tags);
if (tag < tags->nr_tags) {
prefetch(tags->rqs[tag]);
return tags->rqs[tag];
}
return NULL;
}
According to the output, we know the max tag number(nr_tags) is 1023, but
nvmeq->q_depth is 1024 and nvmeq->cqes[] has 1024 cqes. So if command_id
(tag) is 1023, the judgement "if (unlikely(cqe->command_id >= nvmeq->q_depth))"
in nvme_handle_cqe() is useless, we will get a null pointer, which is
returned by blk_mq_tag_to_rq():
[ 16.649973] nvme nvme0: command_id 968 completed on queue 13,
nvmeq q_depth 1024, nvme tagset q_depth 1023, admin q_depth 30
[ 16.649974] tag, nr_tags:968 1023
In function blk_mq_alloc_map_and_requests(), it will adjust tagset depth by
'set->queue_depth >>= 1' if there is no enough memory for rqs. If this happens,
the real available number of tags(nr_tags) is much smaller than nvmeq->q_depth.
So the judgement "if (unlikely(cqe->command_id >= nvmeq->q_depth))" is really
meaningless.
It has the same issue for nvme admin queue, whose nvmeq->q_depth is 32, but
tagset depth is 30:
[ 7.489345] nvme nvme2: command id 24 completed on queue 0,
nvmeq q_depth 32, nvme tagset q_depth 0, admin q_depth 30
[ 7.489347] tag, nr_tags:24 30
This patch is to remove the meaningless judgement, we check whether the returned
req is null, if it is null, directly return. So with this patch, we can avoid a
potential null pointer deference.
