[PATCH 2/5] xfs: free the EFI entries from AIL on forced shutdown

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

 



The extent free intention (EFI) entry and extent free done (EFD)
log items are in separate transactions. It is possible that
the EFI can be pushed to the AIL before a forced shutdown
where it gets stuck on the AIL and requires a reboot in the
following places:

1) xfs_bmap_finish:
  The EFD is not in the transaction. This can happen if the
  transaction in xfs_bmap_finish() fails to reserve space.

  The EFD will not be dirty in the transaction if the error
  happened while freeing the first extent in the list.

2) EFD IOP Abort processing:
  If xfs_trans_cancel() is called with an abort flag, or if the
  xfs_trans_commit() is called when the file system is in forced
  shutdown or if the log buffer write fails.

 
Do not free the EFI structure immediately on forced shutdowns, but
instead use the IOP calls to match the EFI/EFD entries. A small
wrinkle in the mix is the EFI is not automatically placed on the
AIL by the IOP routines in the cases but may have made it to the
AIL before the abort. We now have to check if the EFI is on the AIL
in the abort IOP cases.

Remove the debug code, because the EFD could be in the log item list
on a xfs_trans_cancel.
