[PATCH 0/1] Fix oops in cachefiles_prepare_write due to cookie_lru and use_cookie race

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch should fix the oops seen by Daire while testing the latest
NFS netfs fscache conversion patches [1][2].  What follows is a detailed
explanation of the analysis, mostly for reference and in case any of
the patch header is unclear.

I am not sure if David Howells will see something else here or another
approach, but if not Daire please give this patch a try and let me know
if this fixes the problem and if you see any side-effects.

The patch has been lightly tested with my unit tests and also some
test which attempted (unsuccessfully so far) to reproduce this oops.

Note: My full set of NFS netfs conversion patches I'm testing (which now
includes the patch in this series) is pushed to github:

This looks like the bug because nfsd-2004 shouldn't be able to begin an IO read for a
cookie that has been scheduled for LRU_DISCARD due to expiring timer.  Better yet, since
the cookie state machine has not run yet for LRU_DISCARD bit, we can probably just ensure
that part of the state machine does not run if we get another thread racing in between
with a use_cookie - basically we took the cookie off the LRU and were about to go through
the logic in the state machine that would withdraw the cookie, but we didn't get to that
yet, and the 'use' should indicate we don't want to do that anymore.

At this point I'm thinking some small patch inside __fscache_use_cookie() may work.
Since the cookie_lru timer has popped and as stated earlier, we have the following
set on various fields of the cookie:
1. cookie->state == FSCACHE_COOKIE_STATE_ACTIVE
* Otherwise, we would have the 'then' clause would have executed in fscache_cookie_lru_do_one() lines 853-855
2. cookie->flags has set FSCACHE_COOKIE_DO_LRU_DISCARD
3. cookie->n_accesses == 0 (the "a=0" in the "UNPIN cache" trace event

Something that clears the FSCACHE_COOKIE_DO_LRU_DISCARD bit should fix the problem since
the next time the state machine runs it won't transition from 
cookie->state == FSCACHE_COOKIE_STATE_ACTIVE
to
cookie->state = FSCACHE_COOKIE_STATE_LRU_DISCARDING

kworker/-25371 - This is where the kworker picks back up to run the cookie_lru work item and
we are running through the state machine.  The running through the state machine is the problem
if the LRU_DISCARD bit is set, since we'll transition the state to LRU_DISCARDING and then
eventually call withdraw_cookie.

Notes on cookie_lru
===================

The LRU is controlled by a timer, fscache_cookie_lru_timer.

DEFINE_TIMER(fscache_cookie_lru_timer, fscache_cookie_lru_timed_out);

static unsigned int fscache_lru_cookie_timeout = 10 * HZ;

static void fscache_cookie_lru_timed_out(struct timer_list *timer)
{
	queue_work(fscache_wq, &fscache_cookie_lru_work);
}

The lru_timer calls lru_worker

static DECLARE_WORK(fscache_cookie_lru_work, fscache_cookie_lru_worker);

static void fscache_cookie_lru_do_one(struct fscache_cookie *cookie)
{
	fscache_see_cookie(cookie, fscache_cookie_see_lru_do_one);

	spin_lock(&cookie->lock);
	if (cookie->state != FSCACHE_COOKIE_STATE_ACTIVE ||
	    time_before(jiffies, cookie->unused_at + fscache_lru_cookie_timeout) ||
	    atomic_read(&cookie->n_active) > 0) {
		spin_unlock(&cookie->lock);
		fscache_stat(&fscache_n_cookies_lru_removed);
	} else {
		set_bit(FSCACHE_COOKIE_DO_LRU_DISCARD, &cookie->flags);
		spin_unlock(&cookie->lock);
		fscache_stat(&fscache_n_cookies_lru_expired);
		_debug("lru c=%x", cookie->debug_id);
		__fscache_withdraw_cookie(cookie);
	}

	fscache_put_cookie(cookie, fscache_cookie_put_lru);
}

static void fscache_cookie_lru_worker(struct work_struct *work)
{
	struct fscache_cookie *cookie;
	unsigned long unused_at;

	spin_lock(&fscache_cookie_lru_lock);

	while (!list_empty(&fscache_cookie_lru)) {
		cookie = list_first_entry(&fscache_cookie_lru,
					  struct fscache_cookie, commit_link);
		unused_at = cookie->unused_at + fscache_lru_cookie_timeout;
		if (time_before(jiffies, unused_at)) {
			timer_reduce(&fscache_cookie_lru_timer, unused_at);
			break;
		}

		list_del_init(&cookie->commit_link);
		fscache_stat_d(&fscache_n_cookies_lru);
		spin_unlock(&fscache_cookie_lru_lock);
		fscache_cookie_lru_do_one(cookie);
		spin_lock(&fscache_cookie_lru_lock);
	}

	spin_unlock(&fscache_cookie_lru_lock);
}



Also note unuse_cookie involvement

static void fscache_unuse_cookie_locked(struct fscache_cookie *cookie)
{
	clear_bit(FSCACHE_COOKIE_DISABLED, &cookie->flags);
	if (!test_bit(FSCACHE_COOKIE_IS_CACHING, &cookie->flags))
		return;

	cookie->unused_at = jiffies;
	spin_lock(&fscache_cookie_lru_lock);
	if (list_empty(&cookie->commit_link)) {
		fscache_get_cookie(cookie, fscache_cookie_get_lru);
		fscache_stat(&fscache_n_cookies_lru);
	}
	list_move_tail(&cookie->commit_link, &fscache_cookie_lru);

	spin_unlock(&fscache_cookie_lru_lock);
	timer_reduce(&fscache_cookie_lru_timer,
		     jiffies + fscache_lru_cookie_timeout);
}
