xen/blkback: free requests on disconnection
This is due to commit 86839c5 "xen/block: add multi-page ring support" When using an guest under UEFI - after the domain is destroyed the following warning comes from blkback. ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 95 at /home/julien/works/linux/drivers/block/xen-blkback/xenbus.c:274 xen_blkif_deferred_free+0x1f4/0x1f8() Modules linked in: CPU: 2 PID: 95 Comm: kworker/2:1 Tainted: G W 4.2.0 #85 Hardware name: APM X-Gene Mustang board (DT) Workqueue: events xen_blkif_deferred_free Call trace: [<ffff8000000890a8>] dump_backtrace+0x0/0x124 [<ffff8000000891dc>] show_stack+0x10/0x1c [<ffff8000007653bc>] dump_stack+0x78/0x98 [<ffff800000097e88>] warn_slowpath_common+0x9c/0xd4 [<ffff800000097f80>] warn_slowpath_null+0x14/0x20 [<ffff800000557a0c>] xen_blkif_deferred_free+0x1f0/0x1f8 [<ffff8000000ad020>] process_one_work+0x160/0x3b4 [<ffff8000000ad3b4>] worker_thread+0x140/0x494 [<ffff8000000b2e34>] kthread+0xd8/0xf0 ---[ end trace 6f859b7883c88cdd ]--- Request allocation has been moved to connect_ring, which is called every time blkback connects to the frontend (this can happen multiple times during a blkback instance life cycle). On the other hand, request freeing has not been moved, so it's only called when destroying the backend instance. Due to this mismatch, blkback can allocate the request pool multiple times, without freeing it. In order to fix it, move the freeing of requests to xen_blkif_disconnect to restore the symmetry between request allocation and freeing.
