If EIO happen after we have drop j_state_lock so it is reasonable to move this check under i_sate_lock critical section. This patch helps to prevent false positive complain after EIO #DMESG: __jbd2_log_wait_for_space: needed 8448 blocks and only had 8386 space available __jbd2_log_wait_for_space: no way to get more journal space in ram1-8 ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 15 PID: 6739 at fs/jbd2/checkpoint.c:168 __jbd2_log_wait_for_space+0x188/0x200() Modules linked in: brd iTCO_wdt lpc_ich mfd_core igb ptp dm_mirror dm_region_hash dm_log dm_mod CPU: 15 PID: 6739 Comm: fsstress Tainted: G W 3.17.0-rc2-00429-g684de57 #139 Hardware name: Intel Corporation W2600CR/W2600CR, BIOS SE5C600.86B.99.99.x028.061320111235 06/13/2011 00000000000000a8 ffff88077aaab878 ffffffff815c1a8c 00000000000000a8 0000000000000000 ffff88077aaab8b8 ffffffff8106ce8c ffff88077aaab898 ffff8807c57e6000 ffff8807c57e6028 0000000000002100 ffff8807c57e62f0 Call Trace: [<ffffffff815c1a8c>] dump_stack+0x51/0x6d [<ffffffff8106ce8c>] warn_slowpath_common+0x8c/0xc0 [<ffffffff8106ceda>] warn_slowpath_null+0x1a/0x20 [<ffffffff812419f8>] __jbd2_log_wait_for_space+0x188/0x200 [<ffffffff8123be9a>] start_this_handle+0x4da/0x7b0 [<ffffffff810990e5>] ? local_clock+0x25/0x30 [<ffffffff810aba87>] ? lockdep_init_map+0xe7/0x180 [<ffffffff8123c5bc>] jbd2__journal_start+0xdc/0x1d0 [<ffffffff811f2414>] ? __ext4_new_inode+0x7f4/0x1330 [<ffffffff81222a38>] __ext4_journal_start_sb+0xf8/0x110 [<ffffffff811f2414>] __ext4_new_inode+0x7f4/0x1330 [<ffffffff810ac359>] ? lock_release_holdtime+0x29/0x190 [<ffffffff812025bb>] ext4_create+0x8b/0x150 [<ffffffff8117fe3b>] vfs_create+0x7b/0xb0 [<ffffffff8118097b>] do_last+0x7db/0xcf0 [<ffffffff8117e31d>] ? inode_permission+0x4d/0x50 [<ffffffff811845d2>] path_openat+0x242/0x590 [<ffffffff81191a76>] ? __alloc_fd+0x36/0x140 [<ffffffff81184a6a>] do_filp_open+0x4a/0xb0 [<ffffffff81191b61>] ? __alloc_fd+0x121/0x140 [<ffffffff81172f20>] do_sys_open+0x170/0x220 [<ffffffff8117300e>] SyS_open+0x1e/0x20 [<ffffffff811715d6>] SyS_creat+0x16/0x20 [<ffffffff815c7e12>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b ---[ end trace cd71c831f82059db ]--- Signed-off-by: Dmitry Monakhov <dmonakhov@xxxxxxxxxx> --- fs/jbd2/checkpoint.c | 6 ++++-- 1 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/fs/jbd2/checkpoint.c b/fs/jbd2/checkpoint.c index 9ffb19c..1fbf599 100644 --- a/fs/jbd2/checkpoint.c +++ b/fs/jbd2/checkpoint.c @@ -115,8 +115,6 @@ void __jbd2_log_wait_for_space(journal_t *journal) nblocks = jbd2_space_needed(journal); while (jbd2_log_space_left(journal) < nblocks) { - if (journal->j_flags & JBD2_ABORT) - return; write_unlock(&journal->j_state_lock); mutex_lock(&journal->j_checkpoint_mutex); @@ -132,6 +130,10 @@ void __jbd2_log_wait_for_space(journal_t *journal) * trace for forensic evidence. */ write_lock(&journal->j_state_lock); + if (journal->j_flags & JBD2_ABORT) { + mutex_unlock(&journal->j_checkpoint_mutex); + return; + } spin_lock(&journal->j_list_lock); nblocks = jbd2_space_needed(journal); space_left = jbd2_log_space_left(journal); -- 1.7.1 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
