Panic in kernel CephFS client after kernel update

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



All:
I’m not sure this should go to LKML or here, but I’ll start here.  After upgrading from Linux kernel 4.19.60 to 4.19.75 (or 76), I started running into kernel panics in the “ceph” module.  Based on the call trace, I believe I was able to narrow it down to the following commit in the Linux kernel 4.19 source tree:

commit 812810399999a673d30f9d04d38659030a28051a

    ceph: use ceph_evict_inode to cleanup inode's resource
    
    [ Upstream commit 87bc5b895d94a0f40fe170d4cf5771c8e8f85d15 ]
    
    remove_session_caps() relies on __wait_on_freeing_inode(), to wait for
    freeing inode to remove its caps. But VFS wakes freeing inode waiters
    before calling destroy_inode().

Backing this patch out and recompiling my kernel has since resolved my issues (as far as I can tell thus far).  The issue was fairly easy to create by simply creating and deleting files.  I tested using ‘dd’ and was pretty consistently able to reproduce the issue. Since the issue occurred in a VM, I do have a screenshot of the crashed machine and to avoid attaching an image, I’ll link to where they are:  http://kvanals.kvanals.org/.ceph_kernel_panic_images/

Am I way off base or has anyone else run into this issue?

Thanks,
