[ Upstream commit c2d6fd9d6f35079f1669f0100f05b46708c74b7f ]
There is a long-standing metadata corruption issue that happens from
time to time, but it's very difficult to reproduce and analyse, benefit
from the JBD2_CYCLE_RECORD option, we found out that the problem is the
checkpointing process miss to write out some buffers which are raced by
another do_get_write_access(). Looks below for detail.
jbd2_log_do_checkpoint() //transaction X
//buffer A is dirty and not belones to any transaction
__buffer_relink_io() //move it to the IO list
__flush_batch()
write_dirty_buffer()
do_get_write_access()
clear_buffer_dirty
__jbd2_journal_file_buffer()
//add buffer A to a new transaction Y
lock_buffer(bh)
//doesn't write out
__jbd2_journal_remove_checkpoint()
//finish checkpoint except buffer A
//filesystem corrupt if the new transaction Y isn't fully write out.
Due to the t_checkpoint_list walking loop in jbd2_log_do_checkpoint()
have already handles waiting for buffers under IO and re-added new
transaction to complete commit, and it also removing cleaned buffers,
this makes sure the list will eventually get empty. So it's fine to
leave buffers on the t_checkpoint_list while flushing out and completely
stop using the t_checkpoint_io_list.
