[PATCH] nbd: do del_gendisk() asynchronously

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

 



Now open_mutex is used to synchronize partition operations (e.g,
blk_drop_partitions() and blkdev_reread_part()), however it makes
nbd driver broken, because nbd may call del_gendisk() in nbd_release()
or nbd_genl_disconnect() if NBD_CFLAG_DESTROY_ON_DISCONNECT is enabled,
and deadlock occurs, as shown below:

// AB-BA dead-lock
nbd_genl_disconnect                    blkdev_open
nbd_disconnect_and_put
				       lock bd_mutex
// last ref
nbd_put
    lock nbd_index_mutex
	del_gendisk                    nbd_open
					   try lock nbd_index_mutex
	    try lock bd_mutex

 or

// AA dead-lock
nbd_release
    lock bd_mutex
    nbd_put
        try lock bd_mutex

Instead of fixing block layer (e.g, introduce another lock), fixing
the nbd driver to call del_gendisk() in a kworker. To ensure the
reuse of nbd index succeeds, moving the calling idr_remove() after
del_gendisk(), so if the reused index is not found in nbd_index_idr,
the old disk must have been deleted. And reusing the existing
destroy_complete to ensure nbd_genl_connect() will wait for
the completion of del_gendisk().

Also adding a new workqueue for nbd removal, so nbd_cleanup()
can ensure all removals completes before exits.
