Hello all, In 4.14.13 we have hit the bug with the full backtrace noted below. This looks like a double free problem somewhere related to cached_dev_write_complete calling search_free. It looks like the compiler inlined cached_dev_bio_complete so the stack trace is not complete. This is the call order: cached_dev_write_complete -> cached_dev_bio_complete -> search_free -> bio_put -> bio_free -> bio_disassociate_task -> put_io_context <<<< BUG I noticed that put_io_context released the ioc from a work_queue, so perhaps bcache is calling search_free on the same bio twice and the ioc is being queued to be freed twice. Is this possible? There is another bug report caused when search_free calls bio_put in 4.13.12, here: https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-bcache/msg05434.html In this earlier report by Łukasz Magiera, BIO_REFFED was not flagged so he hit the bio_put BUG for its use counter instead of decending into put_io_context like my bug did. In both cases, I think this might fix the issue---but the cause is still not clear to me: Why would the same bio referenced by the same search struct be decended by search_free more than once? If this is the case, then this simple patch might fix it. Please tell me what you think. If this bug is popping up for more than one person, then it would be great if we could pin it down.
