RE: XFS hung task in xfs_ail_push_all_sync() when unmounting FS after disk failure/recovery

Hi Carlos,

w.r.t. your question below

>>> Shyam, after you reconnected the disks, the messages about failed
async metadata
>>> writes stops to be logged?

After I reconnect the disks, messages about failed async metadata writes
stops to be logged. But the key thing is messages like

XFS (dm-29): xfs_log_force: error -5 returned

Keeps repeating every 30-secs which indicates that there is some buf/io
error status that is being carried forward.

>>> Any chance you can reliably reproduce it?

Yes I have a way to reproduce it, but its not reliable. What I do is setup
a dm-linear over a disk. Create XFS, mount & trigger few copy threads to
copy varying sized files into the FS. At this point pull out the drive
(with scsi-remove-single-device in /proc/scsi/scsi) & in a short-while
convert the dm-linear to dm-ioerror. Then I bring back the underlying
drive, convert back dm-ioerror to dm-linear & try to unmount XFS.

This problem somehow happens on a newly created XFS. If I copy several
files into XFS/delete them & then copy them again, repeat the drive
failure/recovery experiment it doesn't reproduce.

Thanks.

Hi Brian,

These traces, and the stack trace presented, looks quite similar with the
one we were discussing a few days ago, using a dm-thin snapshot.

Looks like with the same bug I've been hunting and Shyam confirmed my
hypothesis
of this bug be able to be reproduced with a regular device.

If it's the same bug, yes, I reproduced it using upstream kernel.

The difference between both (this bug and the one I've been working on) is
how
xfs actually behaves when async metadata writes fail. Other than that, it
pretty
much looks the same.

Trying to unmount the filesystem hungs in xfs_log_force(), well, basically
the
reason I submitted the patch to include the caller into xfs_log_force
trace. I'd
like to see ftrace traces from this system with that patch if possible.

I didn't have time to keep working on this for the past few days, but
looks like
it's time to come back to it.

Shyam, after you reconnected the disks, the messages about failed async
metadata
writes stops to be logged?

Any chance you can reliably reproduce it?

I'm not a xfs journal expert, but it looks like the writeback of items in
AIL
got stuck due the IO errors, and were never completed, but I don't know
what I
should expect after the disk is reconnected.

In my case though, with upstream kernel, I didn't get a XFS_SHUTDOWN until
I
tried to unmount the filesystem, which differs from this case, where xfs
looks
to have shutdown the filesystem after a few tries to writeback the
metadata.

Anyway, I can dig more into it this week, if nobody knows what is going on
before I do it :)

Hi Brian,

Similar problems have been reproduced due to racy/incorrect EFI/EFD
object tracking, which are internal data structures associated with
freeing extents.

What happens if you enable tracepoints while the fs is in this hung
unmount state?

# trace-cmd start -e "xfs:*"
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe
