Subject: [PATCH] ext4: fix deadlock during page writeback
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[ Upstream commit 646caa9c8e196880b41cd3e3d33a2ebc752bdb85 ]
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Commit 06bd3c36a733 (ext4: fix data exposure after a crash) uncovered a
|
||
|
|
deadlock in ext4_writepages() which was previously much harder to hit.
|
||
|
|
After this commit xfstest generic/130 reproduces the deadlock on small
|
||
|
|
filesystems.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The problem happens when ext4_do_update_inode() sets LARGE_FILE feature
|
||
|
|
and marks current inode handle as synchronous. That subsequently results
|
||
|
|
in ext4_journal_stop() called from ext4_writepages() to block waiting for
|
||
|
|
transaction commit while still holding page locks, reference to io_end,
|
||
|
|
and some prepared bio in mpd structure each of which can possibly block
|
||
|
|
transaction commit from completing and thus results in deadlock.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Fix the problem by releasing page locks, io_end reference, and
|
||
|
|
submitting prepared bio before calling ext4_journal_stop().
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[ Changed to defer the call to ext4_journal_stop() only if the handle
|
||
|
|
is synchronous. --tytso ]
