From 531ad7d58c6476c5856653448b4c7d26427502b4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jaegeuk Kim Date: Tue, 30 Apr 2013 11:33:27 +0900 Subject: f2fs: avoid deadlock during evict after f2fs_gc o Deadlock case #1 Thread 1: - writeback_sb_inodes - do_writepages - f2fs_write_data_pages - write_cache_pages - f2fs_write_data_page - f2fs_balance_fs - wait mutex_lock(gc_mutex) Thread 2: - f2fs_balance_fs - mutex_lock(gc_mutex) - f2fs_gc - f2fs_iget - wait iget_locked(inode->i_lock) Thread 3: - do_unlinkat - iput - lock(inode->i_lock) - evict - inode_wait_for_writeback o Deadlock case #2 Thread 1: - __writeback_single_inode : set I_SYNC - do_writepages - f2fs_write_data_page - f2fs_balance_fs - f2fs_gc - iput - evict - inode_wait_for_writeback(I_SYNC) In order to avoid this, even though iput is called with the zero-reference count, we need to stop the eviction procedure if the inode is on writeback. So this patch links f2fs_drop_inode which checks the I_SYNC flag.
