Am I missing anything? > >Thanks, >Shaohua It is hard to reproduce. Our storage exports 4 iscsi LUNs which are built on top of a dm-thin pool with 8 x SSD RAID6. Each two of these iscsi LUNs are connected to a windows server which runs 4 fio jobs with 16 threads and iodepth = 16. In this setup, we can get the following call trace after couples of hours. The stack dump basically shows that the raid5_unplug is holding the conf->device_lock for a very long time. After adding some debug traces, we can confirm that the raid5_plug_cb->list is corrupted which sometimes leads to infinite loop in raid5_unplug. I didn't notice that add_stripe_bio will bail out if the stripe_head is in someone's batch list, but I am wondering if the following scenario will still happen. If a stripe_head A is added to another stripe_head B's batch list, in this case A will have its batch_head != NULL and be added into the plug list. After that, stripe_head B gets handled and called break_stripe_batch_list() to reset all the batched stripe_head(including A which is still on the plug list)'s state and reset their batch_head to NULL. Before the plug list gets processed, if there is another write request comes in and get stripe_head A, A will have its batch_head == NULL (cleared by calling break_stripe_batch_list() on B) and be added to plug list once again. Since we have the environment which can reproduce this issue in 6 hours, if there is anything we can do to help resolve this issue, we are more than willing to help.
