bcache: fix potential deadlock problem in btree_gc_coalesce
[ Upstream commit be23e837333a914df3f24bf0b32e87b0331ab8d1 ]
coccicheck reports:
drivers/md//bcache/btree.c:1538:1-7: preceding lock on line 1417
In btree_gc_coalesce func, if the coalescing process fails, we will goto
to out_nocoalesce tag directly without releasing new_nodes[i]->write_lock.
Then, it will cause a deadlock when trying to acquire new_nodes[i]->
write_lock for freeing new_nodes[i] before return.
btree_gc_coalesce func details as follows:
if alloc new_nodes[i] fails:
goto out_nocoalesce;
// obtain new_nodes[i]->write_lock
mutex_lock(&new_nodes[i]->write_lock)
// main coalescing process
for (i = nodes - 1; i > 0; --i)
[snipped]
if coalescing process fails:
// Here, directly goto out_nocoalesce
// tag will cause a deadlock
goto out_nocoalesce;
[snipped]
// release new_nodes[i]->write_lock
mutex_unlock(&new_nodes[i]->write_lock)
// coalesing succ, return
return;
out_nocoalesce:
btree_node_free(new_nodes[i]) // free new_nodes[i]
// obtain new_nodes[i]->write_lock
mutex_lock(&new_nodes[i]->write_lock);
// set flag for reuse
clear_bit(BTREE_NODE_dirty, &ew_nodes[i]->flags);
// release new_nodes[i]->write_lock
mutex_unlock(&new_nodes[i]->write_lock);
To fix the problem, we add a new tag 'out_unlock_nocoalesce' for
releasing new_nodes[i]->write_lock before out_nocoalesce tag. If
coalescing process fails, we will go to out_unlock_nocoalesce tag
for releasing new_nodes[i]->write_lock before free new_nodes[i] in
out_nocoalesce tag.
