xfstests generic/004 reproduces an ilock deadlock using the tmpfile
interface when selinux is enabled. This occurs because
xfs_create_tmpfile() takes the ilock and then calls d_tmpfile(). The
latter eventually calls into xfs_xattr_get() which attempts to get the
lock again. E.g.:
xfs_io D ffffffff81c134c0 4096 3561 3560 0x00000080

xfs_vn_tmpfile() also fails to initialize security on the newly created
inode.
Pull the d_tmpfile() call up into xfs_vn_tmpfile() after the transaction
has been committed and the inode unlocked. Also, initialize security on
the inode based on the parent directory provided via the tmpfile call.

Hi all,
I thought this looked safe given that d_tmpfile() looks generally like a
d_instantiate() call with some extra magic for handling the tmpfile, but
I could be missing something wrt to locking. ext4 looks like it defers
the unlock_new_inode() call until after d_tmpfile() but I'm not quite
sure why that is. We call it from xfs_setup_inode() further down in the
inode allocation path.
This has only seen some targeted testing so far. generic/004 passes with
selinux enabled and I've verified (via xfs_repair) that the inode is
pulled off the unlinked list if the security initialization fails.
Brian
