Actually I had also tried to reproduce this bug, without success. But today I happened to know how to trigger the bug, by coincidence, during testing other things. Try to run xfstests/generic/034. You'll see the crash immediately. Tested on a QEMU VM with kernel 3.18-rc4, virtio-blk, dm-flakey and xfs. > There is one obvious bug which should have been fixed by below > patch(0001-block-blk-merge-fix-blk_recount_segments.patch"): > > http://marc.info/?l=linux-virtualization&m=141562191719405&q=p3 This patch didn't bring anything to me, as Lukas said. > And there might be another one, I appreciate someone can post > log which is printed by patch("blk-seg.patch") in below link if the > bug still can be triggered even with above fix: > > http://marc.info/?l=linux-virtualization&m=141473040618467&q=p3 "blk_recount_segments: 1-1-1 vcnt-128 segs-128" As long as I understood so far, the reason is that bi_phys_segments gets sometimes bigger than queue_max_sectors() after blk_recount_segments(). That happens no matter whether segments are recalculated or not. I'm not completely sure about what to do, but how about the attached patch? It seems to work, according to several xfstests runs. Cheers, Dongsu ---- >From 1db98323931eb9ab430116c4d909d22222c16e22 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dongsu Park <dongsu.park@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 11 Nov 2014 13:10:59 +0100 Subject: [RFC PATCH] blk-merge: make bi_phys_segments consider also queue_max_segments() When recounting the number of physical segments, the number of max segments of request_queue must be also taken into account. Otherwise bio->bi_phys_segments could get bigger than queue_max_segments(). Then this results in virtio_queue_rq() seeing req->nr_phys_segments that is greater than expected. Although the initial queue_max_segments was set to (vblk->sg_elems - 2), a request comes in with a larger value of nr_phys_segments, which triggers the BUG_ON() condition. This commit should fix a kernel crash in virtio_blk, which occurs especially frequently when it runs with blk-mq, device mapper, and xfs. The simplest way to reproduce this bug is to run xfstests/generic/034. Note, test 034 requires dm-flakey to be turned on in the kernel config.
