From: Carlos Maiolino <cem@xxxxxxxxxx> Mounting a filesystem that requires quota state changing will generate a transaction. We already check for a read-only device; we should do that for norecovery too. A quotacheck on a norecovery mount, and with the right log size, will cause the mount process to hang on: [<0>] xlog_grant_head_wait+0x5d/0x2a0 [xfs] [<0>] xlog_grant_head_check+0x112/0x180 [xfs] [<0>] xfs_log_reserve+0xe3/0x260 [xfs] [<0>] xfs_trans_reserve+0x179/0x250 [xfs] [<0>] xfs_trans_alloc+0x101/0x260 [xfs] [<0>] xfs_sync_sb+0x3f/0x80 [xfs] [<0>] xfs_qm_mount_quotas+0xe3/0x2f0 [xfs] [<0>] xfs_mountfs+0x7ad/0xc20 [xfs] [<0>] xfs_fs_fill_super+0x762/0xa50 [xfs] [<0>] get_tree_bdev_flags+0x131/0x1d0 [<0>] vfs_get_tree+0x26/0xd0 [<0>] vfs_cmd_create+0x59/0xe0 [<0>] __do_sys_fsconfig+0x4e3/0x6b0 [<0>] do_syscall_64+0x82/0x160 [<0>] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x76/0x7e This is caused by a transaction running with bogus initialized head/tail I initially hit this while running generic/050, with random log sizes, but I managed to reproduce it reliably here with the steps below: mkfs.xfs -f -lsize=1025M -f -b size=4096 -m crc=1,reflink=1,rmapbt=1, -i sparse=1 /dev/vdb2 > /dev/null mount -o usrquota,grpquota,prjquota /dev/vdb2 /mnt xfs_io -x -c 'shutdown -f' /mnt umount /mnt mount -o ro,norecovery,usrquota,grpquota,prjquota /dev/vdb2 /mnt Last mount hangs up Signed-off-by: Carlos Maiolino <cmaiolino@xxxxxxxxxx> --- fs/xfs/xfs_qm_bhv.c | 12 +++++++----- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/fs/xfs/xfs_qm_bhv.c b/fs/xfs/xfs_qm_bhv.c index 37f1230e7584..eae106ca7e1b 100644 --- a/fs/xfs/xfs_qm_bhv.c +++ b/fs/xfs/xfs_qm_bhv.c @@ -97,10 +97,11 @@ xfs_qm_newmount( } /* - * If the device itself is read-only, we can't allow - * the user to change the state of quota on the mount - - * this would generate a transaction on the ro device, - * which would lead to an I/O error and shutdown + * If the device itself is read-only and/or in norecovery + * mode, we can't allow the user to change the state of + * quota on the mount - this would generate a transaction + * on the ro device, which would lead to an I/O error and + * shutdown. */ if (((uquotaondisk && !XFS_IS_UQUOTA_ON(mp)) || @@ -109,7 +110,8 @@ xfs_qm_newmount( (!gquotaondisk && XFS_IS_GQUOTA_ON(mp)) || (pquotaondisk && !XFS_IS_PQUOTA_ON(mp)) || (!pquotaondisk && XFS_IS_PQUOTA_ON(mp))) && - xfs_dev_is_read_only(mp, "changing quota state")) { + (xfs_dev_is_read_only(mp, "changing quota state") || + xfs_has_norecovery(mp))) { xfs_warn(mp, "please mount with%s%s%s%s.", (!quotaondisk ?
