Thanks. Here I am going to make some notes to help me to understand the deadlock as you have described. I'm going to make some idiotic, redundant, and obvious commentary for my own understanding and benefit, and then go and spam the list with it. > XFS_BMAPI_METADATA *not* being set implies user data. > > Userdata being set is the community designated indication that an allocate > worker is needed to prevent the overflow of the kernel stack. Even when XFS_BMAPI_METADATA is set, this doesn't necessarily translate into userdata being clear in struct xfs_alloc_arg. This is due to declaring that structure on the stack and then forgetting to zero it. You have fixed all occurances of that in patch 3 of this series. They are: xfs_alloc_fix_freelist, xfs_bmap_btalloc, * xfs_bmap_extents_to_btree, xfs_bmap_local_to_extents, xfs_ialloc_ag_alloc In each of those five stacks we could have intended not to use a worker thread for the allocation, but we used one anyway due to having forgotten to zero the structure. * In xfs_bmap_btalloc, args.userdata is set from ap->userdata before the first call to xfs_alloc_vextent. As long as ap->userdata is initialized properly this one is ok. > Calling xfs_alloc_vextent() several times with the same transaction can cause > a dead lock if a new allocation worker can not be allocated. I noted where the > loops occur. xfs_alloc_vextent() can call itself, those calls must be in the > same allocation worker. This deadlock is characterized by a thread having taken the agf buffer lock in this code path: __xfs_alloc_vextent xfs_alloc_fix_freelist xfs_alloc_read_agf xfs_read_agf The agf buffer gets logged during allocation and stays locked until transaction commit or cancel. The deadlock comes when the transaction which holds the agf lock blocks waiting for a worker, and all of the workers are blocked on the agf lock. So... because the work being done in __xfs_alloc_vextent will always have need of the agf buffer lock, we must never hold the agf lock and then go after a worker thread for allocation. The availability of a worker thread cannot be guaranteed. It's not just a problem with loops. We risk deadlock on every call to xfs_alloc_vextent in the same transaction while the agf lock is held. e.g. multiple tries in xfs_bmap_btalloc. > As a bonus, consolidating the loops into one worker actually gives a slight > performance advantage. > > Sorry this is wider than 80 characters wide. > --- > xfs_bmap_btalloc(xfs_bmalloca_t) args.userdata = ap->userdata; * not worried about patch 3 here > ! xfs_bmap_alloc(xfs_bmalloca_t) > ! ! xfs_bmapi_allocate(xfs_bmalloca_t, ...) > ! ! ! xfs_bmapi_write(xfs_trans_t ...) loops over above Here we risk deadlock in the loop on xfs_bmapi_allocate.

XFS_BMAPI_METADATA flag was set, so this cannot be using a worker.
