From 97dcdea076ecef41ea4aaa23d4397c2f622e4265 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chandan Rajendra Date: Fri, 23 Dec 2016 15:00:18 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] Btrfs: Fix deadlock between direct IO and fast fsync The following deadlock is seen when executing generic/113 test, ---------------------------------------------------------+---------------------------------------------------- Direct I/O task Fast fsync task ---------------------------------------------------------+---------------------------------------------------- btrfs_direct_IO __blockdev_direct_IO do_blockdev_direct_IO do_direct_IO btrfs_get_blocks_direct while (blocks needs to written) get_more_blocks (first iteration) btrfs_get_blocks_direct btrfs_create_dio_extent down_read(&BTRFS_I(inode) >dio_sem) Create and add extent map and ordered extent up_read(&BTRFS_I(inode) >dio_sem) btrfs_sync_file btrfs_log_dentry_safe btrfs_log_inode_parent btrfs_log_inode btrfs_log_changed_extents down_write(&BTRFS_I(inode) >dio_sem) Collect new extent maps and ordered extents wait for ordered extent completion get_more_blocks (second iteration) btrfs_get_blocks_direct btrfs_create_dio_extent down_read(&BTRFS_I(inode) >dio_sem) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In the above description, Btrfs direct I/O code path has not yet started submitting bios for file range covered by the initial ordered extent. Meanwhile, The fast fsync task obtains the write semaphore and waits for I/O on the ordered extent to get completed. However, the Direct I/O task is now blocked on obtaining the read semaphore. To resolve the deadlock, this commit modifies the Direct I/O code path to obtain the read semaphore before invoking __blockdev_direct_IO(). The semaphore is then given up after __blockdev_direct_IO() returns. This allows the Direct I/O code to complete I/O on all the ordered extents it creates.
