Thanks!  I’ll remove my patch from my local build of the 4.19 kernel and upgrade to 4.19.77.  Appreciate the quick fix.

Thanks,

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?

Hi Kenneth,

This might be a botched backport.  The first version of this patch had
a conflict with Al's change that introduced ceph_free_inode() and Zheng
had to adjust it for that.  However, it looks like it has been taken to
4.19 verbatim, even though 4.19 does not have ceph_free_inode().

Zheng, Jeff, please take a look ASAP.


(Sorry for the resend -- I got Sasha's old addr)

Thanks Ilya,

I think you're right -- this patch should not have been merged on any
pre-5.2 kernels. We should go ahead and revert this for now, and do a
one-off backport for v4.19.

Sasha, what do we need to do to make that happen?

I think the easiest would be to just revert the broken one and apply a
clean backport which you'll send me?


Thanks, Sasha. You can revert the old patch as soon as you're ready.
It'll take me a bit to put together and test a proper backport, but
I'll try to have something ready within the next day or so.

Kenneth, this is now fixed in 4.19.77.  Thanks for the report!

               Ilya
