The kernel power management now supports allowing the VFS to handle filesystem freezing freezes and thawing. Take advantage of that and remove the kthread freezing. This is needed so that we properly really stop IO in flight without races after userspace has been frozen. Without this we rely on kthread freezing and its semantics are loose and error prone. The filesystem therefore is in charge of properly dealing with quiescing of the filesystem through its callbacks if it thinks it knows better than how the VFS handles it. The following Coccinelle rule was used as to remove the now superflous freezer calls: spatch --sp-file fs-freeze-cleanup.cocci --in-place --timeout 120 --dir fs/nfs --jobs 12 --use-gitgrep @ remove_set_freezable @ expression time; statement S, S2; expression task, current; @@ ( - set_freezable(); | - if (try_to_freeze()) - continue; | - try_to_freeze(); | - freezable_schedule(); + schedule(); | - freezable_schedule_timeout(time); + schedule_timeout(time); | - if (freezing(task)) { S } | - if (freezing(task)) { S } - else { S2 } | - freezing(current) ) @ remove_wq_freezable @ expression WQ_E, WQ_ARG1, WQ_ARG2, WQ_ARG3, WQ_ARG4; identifier fs_wq_fn; @@ ( WQ_E = alloc_workqueue(WQ_ARG1, - WQ_ARG2 | WQ_FREEZABLE, + WQ_ARG2, ...); | WQ_E = alloc_workqueue(WQ_ARG1, - WQ_ARG2 | WQ_FREEZABLE | WQ_ARG3, + WQ_ARG2 | WQ_ARG3, ...); | WQ_E = alloc_workqueue(WQ_ARG1, - WQ_ARG2 | WQ_ARG3 | WQ_FREEZABLE, + WQ_ARG2 | WQ_ARG3, ...); | WQ_E = alloc_workqueue(WQ_ARG1, - WQ_ARG2 | WQ_ARG3 | WQ_FREEZABLE | WQ_ARG4, + WQ_ARG2 | WQ_ARG3 | WQ_ARG4, ...); | WQ_E = - WQ_ARG1 | WQ_FREEZABLE + WQ_ARG1 | WQ_E = - WQ_ARG1 | WQ_FREEZABLE | WQ_ARG3 + WQ_ARG1 | WQ_ARG3 | fs_wq_fn( - WQ_FREEZABLE | WQ_ARG2 | WQ_ARG3 + WQ_ARG2 | WQ_ARG3 ) | fs_wq_fn( - WQ_FREEZABLE | WQ_ARG2 + WQ_ARG2 ) | fs_wq_fn( - WQ_FREEZABLE + 0 ) ) @ add_auto_flag @ expression E1; identifier fs_type; @@ struct file_system_type fs_type = { .fs_flags = E1 + | FS_AUTOFREEZE , }; Generated-by: Coccinelle SmPL Signed-off-by: Luis Chamberlain <mcgrof@xxxxxxxxxx> --- fs/nfsd/nfssvc.c | 2 -- 1 file changed, 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/fs/nfsd/nfssvc.c b/fs/nfsd/nfssvc.c index 1ed29eac80ed..5345c415c2bc 100644 --- a/fs/nfsd/nfssvc.c +++ b/fs/nfsd/nfssvc.c @@ -963,8 +963,6 @@ nfsd(void *vrqstp) atomic_inc(&nfsdstats.th_cnt); - set_freezable(); - /* * The main request loop */ -- 2.35.1
