This call trace in "kswapd blocked for more than brabra" message shows that generic_delete_inode() blocked. Is this put_nfs_open_context() -- iput() call in shrink_page_list() context intended? If not, I'd suggest a patch like this. INFO: task kswapd0:305 blocked for more than 120 seconds. "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message. kswapd0 D 0000000000000001 0 305 2 0x00000000 ffff88001f21d4f0 0000000000000046 ffff88001fdea680 ffff88001f21c000 ffff88001f21dfd8 ffff88001f21c000 ffff88001f21dfd8 ffff88001f21dfd8 ffff88001fdea040 0000000000014c00 0000000000000001 ffff88001fdea040 Call Trace: [<ffffffff8146155d>] io_schedule+0x4d/0x70 [<ffffffff810d2be5>] sync_page+0x65/0xa0 [<ffffffff81461b12>] __wait_on_bit_lock+0x52/0xb0 [<ffffffff810d2b80>] ? sync_page+0x0/0xa0 [<ffffffff810d2b64>] __lock_page+0x64/0x70 [<ffffffff81070ce0>] ? wake_bit_function+0x0/0x40 [<ffffffff810df1d4>] truncate_inode_pages_range+0x344/0x4a0 [<ffffffff810df340>] truncate_inode_pages+0x10/0x20 [<ffffffff8112cbfe>] generic_delete_inode+0x15e/0x190 [<ffffffff8112cc8d>] generic_drop_inode+0x5d/0x80 [<ffffffff8112bb88>] iput+0x78/0x80 [<ffffffff811bc908>] nfs_dentry_iput+0x38/0x50 [<ffffffff811285f4>] dentry_iput+0x84/0x110 [<ffffffff811286ae>] d_kill+0x2e/0x60 [<ffffffff8112912a>] dput+0x7a/0x170 [<ffffffff8111e925>] path_put+0x15/0x40 [<ffffffff811c3a44>] __put_nfs_open_context+0xa4/0xb0 [<ffffffff811cb5d0>] ? nfs_free_request+0x0/0x50 [<ffffffff811c3b0b>] put_nfs_open_context+0xb/0x10 [<ffffffff811cb5f9>] nfs_free_request+0x29/0x50 [<ffffffff81234b7e>] kref_put+0x8e/0xe0 [<ffffffff811cb594>] nfs_release_request+0x14/0x20 [<ffffffff811cf769>] nfs_find_and_lock_request+0x89/0xa0 [<ffffffff811d1180>] nfs_wb_page+0x80/0x110 [<ffffffff811c0770>] nfs_release_page+0x70/0x90 [<ffffffff810d18ee>] try_to_release_page+0x5e/0x80 [<ffffffff810e1178>] shrink_page_list+0x638/0x860 [<ffffffff810e19de>] shrink_zone+0x63e/0xc40 [<ffffffff81464437>] ? _raw_spin_unlock+0x57/0x70 [<ffffffff8107641e>] ? up_read+0x1e/0x40 [<ffffffff810e26a9>] kswapd+0x6c9/0xa20 [<ffffffff810df700>] ? isolate_pages_global+0x0/0x280 [<ffffffff81070ca0>] ? autoremove_wake_function+0x0/0x40 [<ffffffff810e1fe0>] ? kswapd+0x0/0xa20 [<ffffffff810706d6>] kthread+0x96/0xb0 [<ffffffff8100b5a4>] kernel_thread_helper+0x4/0x10 [<ffffffff81464f14>] ? restore_args+0x0/0x30 [<ffffffff81070640>] ? kthread+0x0/0xb0 [<ffffffff8100b5a0>] ? kernel_thread_helper+0x0/0x10 no locks held by kswapd0/305. diff --git a/fs/nfs/file.c b/fs/nfs/file.c index ae8d022..ffa5463 100644 --- a/fs/nfs/file.c +++ b/fs/nfs/file.c @@ -491,8 +491,13 @@ static int nfs_release_page(struct page *page, gfp_t gfp) { dfprintk(PAGECACHE, "NFS: release_page(%p)\n", page); - if (gfp & __GFP_WAIT) + if (gfp & __GFP_WAIT) { + struct inode *inode; + + inode = igrab(page->mapping->host); nfs_wb_page(page->mapping->host, page); + iput(inode); + } /* If PagePrivate() is set, then the page is not freeable */ if (PagePrivate(page)) return 0; J.
