3.13.11-ckt22 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Junxiao Bi <junxiao.bi@xxxxxxxxxx> commit b1432a2a35565f538586774a03bf277c27fc267d upstream. There is a race window in dlm_get_lock_resource(), which may return a lock resource which has been purged. This will cause the process to hang forever in dlmlock() as the ast msg can't be handled due to its lock resource not existing. dlm_get_lock_resource { ... spin_lock(&dlm->spinlock); tmpres = __dlm_lookup_lockres_full(dlm, lockid, namelen, hash); if (tmpres) { spin_unlock(&dlm->spinlock); >>>>>>>> race window, dlm_run_purge_list() may run and purge the lock resource spin_lock(&tmpres->spinlock); ... spin_unlock(&tmpres->spinlock); } } Signed-off-by: Junxiao Bi <junxiao.bi@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Joseph Qi <joseph.qi@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@xxxxxxxx> Cc: Joel Becker <jlbec@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Kamal Mostafa <kamal@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- fs/ocfs2/dlm/dlmmaster.c | 13 +++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 13 insertions(+) diff --git a/fs/ocfs2/dlm/dlmmaster.c b/fs/ocfs2/dlm/dlmmaster.c index 1be3398..1dd0bcc 100644 --- a/fs/ocfs2/dlm/dlmmaster.c +++ b/fs/ocfs2/dlm/dlmmaster.c @@ -726,6 +726,19 @@ lookup: if (tmpres) { spin_unlock(&dlm->spinlock); spin_lock(&tmpres->spinlock); + + /* + * Right after dlm spinlock was released, dlm_thread could have + * purged the lockres.
