Hi Jens,
In blk_rq_timed_out_timer() in blk-timeout.c the comment at line 129
says that the request deadline can never be zero as that gets fixed in
blk_add_timer.
However commit 7838c15b8dd18e78a523513749e5b54bda07b0cb
removed the line that bumped deadline if zero.
So now AFAICT there's nothing to prevent deadline being zero, and
blk_rq_timed_out_timer may not always do the right thing when jiffies is
about to wrap.
There was a next_set flag in blk_rq_timed_out_timer but that's been
removed too.
Do you have any preferred fix? A next_set flag or a deadline bump or
something else?
regards
Richard
