[PATCH 4.18 113/168] dm raid: fix stripe adding reshape deadlock

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

 



4.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Heinz Mauelshagen <heinzm@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 644e2537fdc77baeeefc829524937bca64329f82 ]

When initiating a stripe adding reshape, a deadlock between
md_stop_writes() waiting for the sync thread to stop and the running
sync thread waiting for inactive stripes occurs (this frequently happens
on single-core but rarely on multi-core systems).

Fix this deadlock by setting MD_RECOVERY_WAIT to have the main MD
resynchronization thread worker (md_do_sync()) bail out when initiating
the reshape via constructor arguments.
