Hi,
When I checked the freeze feature for ext3 filesystem using fsfreeze
command at 3.1.0-rc4, I think the following deadlock problem happened.
How to reproduce:
# mkfs -t ext3 /dev/sdd1
# mount /dev/sdd1 /MNT
# ./fsstress -d /MNT/tmp -n 10 -p 1000 > /dev/null 2>&1 &
# fsfreeze -f /MNT
# fsfreeze -u /MNT
If this deadlock is reproduced, "fsfreeze -u /MNT" does not return.
The detail of deadlock:
o [flush-8:16:1523]
wb_do_writeback
wb_writeback
...
ext3_journalled_writepage
journal_start
start_this_handle
# waiting until journal->j_barrier_count turns 0...
# j_barrier_count was incremented by journal_lock_updates()
# via ext3_freeze().
o [fsstress:2673]
sys_sync
sync_filesystems
iterate_supers
down_read(sb->s_umount)
sync_one_sb
__sync_filesystem
writeback_inodes_sb
writeback_inodes_sb_nr
wait_for_completion
wait_for_common
# waiting for completion of [flush-8:16:1523]...
o [fsfreeze:2749]
sys_ioctl
do_vfs_ioctl
thaw_super
# waiting for down_write(sb->s_umount)...
# [fsfreeze:2673] did down_read(sb->s_umount).
I got the following messages.
