From: Mingzhe Zou <mingzhe.zou@xxxxxxxxxxxx> We had a problem with io hung because it was waiting for c->root to release the lock. crash> cache_set.root -l cache_set.list ffffa03fde4c0050 root = 0xffff802ef454c800 crash> btree -o 0xffff802ef454c800 | grep rw_semaphore [ffff802ef454c858] struct rw_semaphore lock; crash> struct rw_semaphore ffff802ef454c858 struct rw_semaphore { count = { counter = -4294967297 }, wait_list = { next = 0xffff00006786fc28, prev = 0xffff00005d0efac8 }, wait_lock = { raw_lock = { { val = { counter = 0 }, { locked = 0 '\000', pending = 0 '\000' }, { locked_pending = 0, tail = 0 } } } }, osq = { tail = { counter = 0 } }, owner = 0xffffa03fdc586603 } The "counter = -4294967297" means that lock count is -1 and a write lock is being attempted. Then, we found that there is a btree with a counter of 1 in btree_cache_freeable. crash> cache_set -l cache_set.list ffffa03fde4c0050 -o|grep btree_cache [ffffa03fde4c1140] struct list_head btree_cache; [ffffa03fde4c1150] struct list_head btree_cache_freeable; [ffffa03fde4c1160] struct list_head btree_cache_freed; [ffffa03fde4c1170] unsigned int btree_cache_used; [ffffa03fde4c1178] wait_queue_head_t btree_cache_wait; [ffffa03fde4c1190] struct task_struct *btree_cache_alloc_lock; crash> list -H ffffa03fde4c1140|wc -l 973 crash> list -H ffffa03fde4c1150|wc -l 1123 crash> cache_set.btree_cache_used -l cache_set.list ffffa03fde4c0050 btree_cache_used = 2097 crash> list -s btree -l btree.list -H ffffa03fde4c1140|grep -E -A2 "^ lock = {" > btree_cache.txt crash> list -s btree -l btree.list -H ffffa03fde4c1150|grep -E -A2 "^ lock = {" > btree_cache_freeable.txt [root@node-3 127.0.0.1-2023-08-04-16:40:28]# pwd /var/crash/127.0.0.1-2023-08-04-16:40:28 [root@node-3 127.0.0.1-2023-08-04-16:40:28]# cat btree_cache.txt|grep counter|grep -v "counter = 0" [root@node-3 127.0.0.1-2023-08-04-16:40:28]# cat btree_cache_freeable.txt|grep counter|grep -v "counter = 0" counter = 1 We found that this is a bug in bch_sectors_dirty_init() when locking c->root: (1). Thread X has locked c->root(A) write. (2). Thread Y failed to lock c->root(A), waiting for the lock(c->root A). (3). Thread X bch_btree_set_root() changes c->root from A to B. (4). Thread X releases the lock(c->root A). (5). Thread Y successfully locks c->root(A). (6).
