[ Upstream commit 6df0e077d76bd144c533b61d6182676aae6b0a85 ]
When libata calls ata_link_abort() to abort all ata queued commands, it calls blk_abort_request() on the SCSI command representing each QC.
This causes scsi_timeout() to be called, which calls scsi_eh_scmd_add() for each SCSI command.
scsi_eh_scmd_add() sets the SCSI host to state recovery, and then adds the command to shost->eh_cmd_q.
This will wake up the SCSI EH, and eventually the libata EH strategy handler will be called, which calls scsi_eh_flush_done_q() to either flush retry or flush finish each failed command.
The commands that are flush retried by scsi_eh_flush_done_q() are done so using scsi_queue_insert().
Before commit 8b566edbdbfb ("scsi: core: Only kick the requeue list if necessary"), __scsi_queue_insert() called blk_mq_requeue_request() with the second argument set to true, indicating that it should always kick/run the requeue list after inserting.
After commit 8b566edbdbfb ("scsi: core: Only kick the requeue list if necessary"), __scsi_queue_insert() does not kick/run the requeue list after inserting, if the current SCSI host state is recovery (which is the case in the libata example above).
This optimization is probably fine in most cases, as I can only assume that most often someone will eventually kick/run the queues.
However, that is not the case for scsi_eh_flush_done_q(), where we can see that the request gets inserted to the requeue list, but the queue is never started after the request has been inserted, leading to the block layer waiting for the completion of command that never gets to run.
Since scsi_eh_flush_done_q() is called by SCSI EH context, the SCSI host state is most likely always in recovery when this function is called.
Thus, let scsi_eh_flush_done_q() explicitly kick the requeue list after inserting a flush retry command, so that scsi_eh_flush_done_q() keeps the same behavior as before commit 8b566edbdbfb ("scsi: core: Only kick the requeue list if necessary").
Simple reproducer for the libata example above: $ hdparm -Y /dev/sda $ echo 1 > /sys/class/scsi_device/0:0:0:0/device/delete
