Fork of alistair23 Linux kernel for reMarkable from https://github.com/alistair23/linux
f5785283dd
Though problem if found on a lower 4.1.12 kernel, I think upstream has
same issue.
In one node in the cluster, there is the following callback trace:
# cat /proc/21473/stack
__ocfs2_cluster_lock.isra.36+0x336/0x9e0 [ocfs2]
ocfs2_inode_lock_full_nested+0x121/0x520 [ocfs2]
ocfs2_evict_inode+0x152/0x820 [ocfs2]
evict+0xae/0x1a0
iput+0x1c6/0x230
ocfs2_orphan_filldir+0x5d/0x100 [ocfs2]
ocfs2_dir_foreach_blk+0x490/0x4f0 [ocfs2]
ocfs2_dir_foreach+0x29/0x30 [ocfs2]
ocfs2_recover_orphans+0x1b6/0x9a0 [ocfs2]
ocfs2_complete_recovery+0x1de/0x5c0 [ocfs2]
process_one_work+0x169/0x4a0
worker_thread+0x5b/0x560
kthread+0xcb/0xf0
ret_from_fork+0x61/0x90
The above stack is not reasonable, the final iput shouldn't happen in
ocfs2_orphan_filldir() function. Looking at the code,
2067 /* Skip inodes which are already added to recover list, since dio may
2068 * happen concurrently with unlink/rename */
2069 if (OCFS2_I(iter)->ip_next_orphan) {
2070 iput(iter);
2071 return 0;
2072 }
2073
The logic thinks the inode is already in recover list on seeing
ip_next_orphan is non-NULL, so it skip this inode after dropping a
reference which incremented in ocfs2_iget().
While, if the inode is already in recover list, it should have another
reference and the iput() at line 2070 should not be the final iput
(dropping the last reference). So I don't think the inode is really in
the recover list (no vmcore to confirm).
Note that ocfs2_queue_orphans(), though not shown up in the call back
trace, is holding cluster lock on the orphan directory when looking up
for unlinked inodes. The on disk inode eviction could involve a lot of
IOs which may need long time to finish. That means this node could hold
the cluster lock for very long time, that can lead to the lock requests
(from other nodes) to the orhpan directory hang for long time.
Looking at more on ip_next_orphan, I found it's not initialized when
allocating a new ocfs2_inode_info structure.
This causes te reflink operations from some nodes hang for very long
time waiting for the cluster lock on the orphan directory.
Fix: initialize ip_next_orphan as NULL.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
