[PATCH] zfcp: fix infinite iteration on ERP ready list

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

 



From: Jens Remus <jremus@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

zfcp_erp_adapter_reopen() schedules blocking of all of the adapter's
rports via zfcp_scsi_schedule_rports_block() and enqueues a reopen
adapter ERP action via zfcp_erp_action_enqueue(). Both are separately
processed asynchronously and concurrently.

Blocking of rports is done in a kworker by zfcp_scsi_rport_work(). It
calls zfcp_scsi_rport_block(), which then traces a DBF REC "scpdely" via
zfcp_dbf_rec_trig().
zfcp_dbf_rec_trig() acquires the DBF REC spin lock and then iterates with
list_for_each() over the adapter's ERP ready list without holding the ERP
lock. This opens a race window in which the current list entry can be
moved to another list, causing list_for_each() to iterate forever on the
wrong list, as the erp_ready_head is never encountered as terminal
condition.

Meanwhile the ERP action can be processed in the ERP thread by
zfcp_erp_thread(). It calls zfcp_erp_strategy(), which acquires the ERP
lock and then calls zfcp_erp_action_to_running() to move the ERP action
from the ready to the running list.
zfcp_erp_action_to_running() can move the ERP action using list_move()
just during the aforementioned race window. It then traces a REC RUN
"erator1" via zfcp_dbf_rec_run().
zfcp_dbf_rec_run() tries to acquire the DBF REC spin lock. If this is held
by the infinitely looping kworker, it effectively spins forever.

Example Sequence Diagram:

|                      lock DBF REC spins forever

Any adapter recovery can trigger this, such as setting the device offline
or reboot.

V4.9 commit 4eeaa4f3f1d6 ("zfcp: close window with unblocked rport during
rport gone") introduced additional tracing of (un)blocking of rports. It
missed that the adapter->erp_lock must be held when calling
zfcp_dbf_rec_trig().

This fix uses the approach formerly introduced by commit aa0fec62391c
("[SCSI] zfcp: Fix sparse warning by providing new entry in dbf") that got
later removed by commit ae0904f60fab ("[SCSI] zfcp: Redesign of the debug
tracing for recovery actions.").

Introduce zfcp_dbf_rec_trig_lock(), a wrapper for zfcp_dbf_rec_trig() that
acquires and releases the adapter->erp_lock for read.

James, Martin,

this is an important zfcp regression fix.
It would be nice if it could make it into 4.17-rcX.
The patch applies to James' fixes branch or Martin's 4.17/scsi-fixes branch.

Regards,
Steffen
