[PATCH] xfs: fix xfs_log_ticket leak in xfs_end_io() after fs shutdown

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

 



If the filesystem has shut down, xfs_end_io() currently sets an error on
the ioend and proceeds to ioend destruction. The ioend might contain a
truncate transaction if the I/O extended the size of the file. This
transaction is only cleaned up in xfs_setfilesize_ioend(), however,
which is skipped in this case. This results in an xfs_log_ticket leak
message when the associate cache slab is destroyed (e.g., on rmmod).

This was originally reproduced by xfs/141 on a distro kernel. The
problem is reproducible on an upstream kernel, but not easily detected
in current upstream if the xfs_log_ticket cache happens to be merged
with another cache. This can be reproduced more deterministically with
the 'slab_nomerge' kernel boot option.

Update xfs_end_io() to proceed with normal end I/O processing after an
error is set on an ioend due to fs shutdown. The I/O type-based
processing is already designed to handle an I/O error and ensure that
the ioend is cleaned up correctly.
