Hi,

while trying to backup a Dell R7525 system running
Debian bookworm/testing using LVM snapshots I noticed that the system
will 'freeze' sometimes (not all the times) when creating the snapshot.
To recover from this, a power cycle is required.

Is this a problem caused by LVM or a kernel issue?

The command I run:

   /usr/sbin/lvcreate \
   -vvvvv \
   --size 100G \
   --snapshot /dev/mapper/devDataStore1-volMachines \
   --name volMachines_snap

The message "mariadbd:1607 blocked for more than 120 seconds" will repeat.

MariaDB itself is running in a systemd-nspawn container. The container
storage is located on the volume for which snapshot creation will hang.


Hi


Lvm2 is *NOT* supported to be used within containers!

This requires some very specific 'system' modification and its in overal very problematic - so rule #1 is - always run lvm2 command on your hosting machine.


Now - you suggests you are able to reproduce this issue also on your bare metal hw - in this case run these 3 commands before 'lvcreate'


# dmsetup table
# dmsetup info -c
# dmsetup ls --tree

# lvcreate ....

If it blocks take again these:
# dmsetup table
# dmsetup info -c
# dmsetup ls --tree


You 'lvcreate -vvvv' & 'dmesg' trace simply suggest that system is waiting to fulfill 'fsfreeze' operation - it's unclear why it cannot be finished - maybe some problem with your 'raid' array ??

So far I do not see any bug on lvm2 side - all works from lvm2 side as expected - however it's unclear why your 'raid' is so slow ?

Note: you could always 'experiment' without lvm2 in the picture -
you can ran 'fsfreeze --freeze|--unfreeze' yourself - to see whether even this command is able to finish ?

Note2: if you system has lots of 'dirty' pages - it may potentially take a lot of time to 'fsfreeze' operation of a filesystem since all 'dirty' pages needs to be written to your disk..


Regards

Zdenek
