io_schedule() calls blk_flush_plug() which, depending on the contents of current->plug, can initiate arbitrary blk-io requests. Note that this contrasts with blk_schedule_flush_plug() which requires all non-trivial work to be handed off to a separate thread. This makes it possible for io_schedule() to recurse, and initiating block requests could possibly call mempool_alloc() which, in times of memory pressure, uses io_schedule(). Apart from any stack usage issues, io_schedule() will not behave correctly when called recursively as delayacct_blkio_start() does not allow for repeated calls. So: - use ->in_iowait to detect recursion. Set it earlier, and restore it to the old value. - move the call to "raw_rq" after the call to blk_flush_plug(). As this is some sort of per-cpu thing, we want some chance that we are on the right CPU - When io_schedule() is called recurively, use blk_schedule_flush_plug() which cannot further recurse. - as this makes io_schedule() a lot more complex and as io_schedule() must match io_schedule_timeout(), but all the changes in io_schedule_timeout() and make io_schedule a simple wrapper for that.
