Re: [PATCH v4 4/4] blk-flush: reuse rq queuelist in flush state machine

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

 



Hi,

some of our (Proxmox VE) users have been reporting crashes [1] with NULL
pointer dereferences in blk_flush_complete_seq. AFAICT, all systems
crashing in blk_flush_complete_seq used software RAID1, and ran our
downstream kernel based on (Ubuntu) kernel 6.8.

On mainline kernel 6.9, I can reproduce the crash [1] by:

* compiling the kernel with CONFIG_FAIL_MAKE_REQUEST enabled
* setting up root on software RAID1
* enabling the write-intent bitmap with `mdadm --grow --bitmap=internal
/dev/md0`. So far, I have not been able to reproduce the crash with the
write-intent bitmap disabled.
* injecting write faults via CONFIG_FAIL_MAKE_REQUEST on one of the
RAID1 disks
* generating IO in a KVM guest with fio
* waiting ~5 minutes

I've used this reproducer for a bisect, which produced

 81ada09cc25e (blk-flush: reuse rq queuelist in flush state machine)

as the first commit with which I can reproduce the crashes. I'm not 100%
sure it is this one because the reproducer is a bit flaky. But it does
sound plausible, as the commit is included in our 6.8 kernel, and
touches `queuelist` which is AFAICT where blk_flush_complete_seq
dereferences the NULL pointer.

Does anyone have an idea what could be the cause for the crash, or how
to further debug this? Happy to provide more information if needed, as
well as the complete reproducer (I'd need to clean it up a little bit
first).

Do you think this could also affect setups without software RAID?

Best,

Friedrich
