From 73416dab235e5ff030e3b3c61da0cd6ced324fc9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Liu Bo Date: Fri, 14 Aug 2015 18:33:07 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] Btrfs: move kobj stuff out of dev_replace lock range To avoid deadlock described in commit 084b6e7c7607 ("btrfs: Fix a lockdep warning when running xfstest."), we should move kobj stuff out of dev_replace lock range. "It is because the btrfs_kobj_{add/rm}_device() will call memory allocation with GFP_KERNEL, which may flush fs page cache to free space, waiting for it self to do the commit, causing the deadlock. To solve the problem, move btrfs_kobj_{add/rm}_device() out of the dev_replace lock range, also involing split the btrfs_rm_dev_replace_srcdev() function into remove and free parts. Now only btrfs_rm_dev_replace_remove_srcdev() is called in dev_replace lock range, and kobj_{add/rm} and btrfs_rm_dev_replace_free_srcdev() are called out of the lock range."
