Re: [PATCH RFC v6 00/21] DEPT(Dependency Tracker)

I tried DEPT-v6 applied against 5.18-rc5, and it reported the
following positive.

The reason why it's nonsense is that in context A's [W] wait:

[ 1538.545054] [W] folio_wait_bit_common(pglocked:0):
[ 1538.545370] [<ffffffff81259944>] __filemap_get_folio+0x3e4/0x420
[ 1538.545763] stacktrace:
[ 1538.545928]       folio_wait_bit_common+0x2fa/0x460
[ 1538.546248]       __filemap_get_folio+0x3e4/0x420

[ 1538.546852]       ext4_mb_init_group+0x80/0x2e0
[ 1538.547152]       ext4_mb_good_group_nolock+0x2a3/0x2d0

... we're reading the block allocation bitmap into the page cache.
This does not correspond to a real inode, and so we don't actually
take ei->i_data_sem in this on the psuedo-inode used.

In contast, context's B's [W] and [E]'s stack traces, the
folio_wait_bit is clearly associated with page which is mapped to a
real inode:

[ 1538.553656] [W] down_write(&ei->i_data_sem:0):

In any case, this will ***never*** deadlock, and it's due to DEPT
fundamentally not understanding that waiting on different pages may be
due to inodes that come from completely different inodes, and so there
is zero possible chance this would never deadlock.

I suspect there will be similar false positives for tests (or
userspace) that uses copy_file_range(2) or send_file(2) system calls.

I've included the full DEPT log report below.
