From f91ca31f5379a6979d0a83aaac215def130ccb15 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Josef Bacik Date: Fri, 20 Jul 2018 11:46:10 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Btrfs: fix btrfs_write_inode vs delayed iput deadlock commit 3c4276936f6fbe52884b4ea4e6cc120b890a0f9f upstream. We recently ran into the following deadlock involving btrfs_write_inode(): [ +0.005066] __schedule+0x38e/0x8c0 [ +0.007144] schedule+0x36/0x80 [ +0.006447] bit_wait+0x11/0x60 [ +0.006446] __wait_on_bit+0xbe/0x110 [ +0.007487] ? bit_wait_io+0x60/0x60 [ +0.007319] __inode_wait_for_writeback+0x96/0xc0 [ +0.009568] ? autoremove_wake_function+0x40/0x40 [ +0.009565] inode_wait_for_writeback+0x21/0x30 [ +0.009224] evict+0xb0/0x190 [ +0.006099] iput+0x1a8/0x210 [ +0.006103] btrfs_run_delayed_iputs+0x73/0xc0 [ +0.009047] btrfs_commit_transaction+0x799/0x8c0 [ +0.009567] btrfs_write_inode+0x81/0xb0 [ +0.008008] __writeback_single_inode+0x267/0x320 [ +0.009569] writeback_sb_inodes+0x25b/0x4e0 [ +0.008702] wb_writeback+0x102/0x2d0 [ +0.007487] wb_workfn+0xa4/0x310 [ +0.006794] ? wb_workfn+0xa4/0x310 [ +0.007143] process_one_work+0x150/0x410 [ +0.008179] worker_thread+0x6d/0x520 [ +0.007490] kthread+0x12c/0x160 [ +0.006620] ? put_pwq_unlocked+0x80/0x80 [ +0.008185] ? kthread_park+0xa0/0xa0 [ +0.007484] ? do_syscall_64+0x53/0x150 [ +0.007837] ret_from_fork+0x29/0x40 Writeback calls: btrfs_write_inode btrfs_commit_transaction btrfs_run_delayed_iputs If iput() is called on that same inode, evict() will wait for writeback forever. btrfs_write_inode() was originally added way back in 4730a4bc5bf3 ("btrfs_dirty_inode") to support O_SYNC writes. However, ->write_inode() hasn't been used for O_SYNC since 148f948ba877 ("vfs: Introduce new helpers for syncing after writing to O_SYNC file or IS_SYNC inode"), so btrfs_write_inode() is actually unnecessary (and leads to a bunch of unnecessary commits). Get rid of it, which also gets rid of the deadlock.
