PATCH 1/1 Btrfs: fix hang on extent buffer lock caused by the inode_paths ioctl

From: Filipe Manana <[email protected]>

While doing some tests I ran into an hang on an extent buffer's rwlock that produced the following trace:

This happens because in the code path executed by the inode_paths ioctl we end up nesting two calls to read lock a leaf's rwlock when after the first call to read_lock() and before the second call to read_lock(), another task (running the delayed items as part of a transaction commit) has already called write_lock() against the leaf's rwlock. This situation is illustrated by the following diagram:

Task A Task B

  btrfs_ref_to_path()               btrfs_commit_transaction()
    read_lock(&eb->lock);
                                      btrfs_run_delayed_items()
                                        __btrfs_commit_inode_delayed_items()
                                          __btrfs_update_delayed_inode()
                                            btrfs_lookup_inode()

                                              write_lock(&eb->lock);
                                                --> task waits for lock

    read_lock(&eb->lock);
    --> makes this task hang
        forever (and task B too
	of course)

So fix this by avoiding doing the nested read lock, which is easily avoidable. This issue does not happen if task B calls write_lock() after task A does the second call to read_lock(), however there does not seem to exist anything in the documentation that mentions what is the expected behaviour for recursive locking of rwlocks (leaving the idea that doing so is not a good usage of rwlocks).

This happens because in the code path executed by the inode_paths ioctl we end up nesting two calls to read lock a leaf's rwlock when after the first call to read_lock() and before the second call to read_lock(), another task (running the delayed items as part of a transaction commit) has already called write_lock() against the leaf's rwlock. This situation is illustrated by the following diagram:

Task A Task B

  btrfs_ref_to_path()               btrfs_commit_transaction()
    read_lock(&eb->lock);
                                      btrfs_run_delayed_items()
                                        __btrfs_commit_inode_delayed_items()
                                          __btrfs_update_delayed_inode()
                                            btrfs_lookup_inode()

                                              write_lock(&eb->lock);
                                                --> task waits for lock

    read_lock(&eb->lock);
    --> makes this task hang
        forever (and task B too
	of course)

So fix this by avoiding doing the nested read lock, which is easily avoidable. This issue does not happen if task B calls write_lock() after task A does the second call to read_lock(), however there does not seem to exist anything in the documentation that mentions what is the expected behaviour for recursive locking of rwlocks (leaving the idea that doing so is not a good usage of rwlocks).

iterate_inode_refs() does it in anothe way, it's using btrfs_clone_extent_buffer() to keep btrfs from similar deadlock, it creates a clone so we don't have trouble on the original eb's read lock, it's more reasonable to me.

Thanks,

While doing some tests I ran into an hang on an extent buffer's rwlock that produced the following trace:

This happens because in the code path executed by the inode_paths ioctl we end up nesting two calls to read lock a leaf's rwlock when after the first call to read_lock() and before the second call to read_lock(), another task (running the delayed items as part of a transaction commit) has already called write_lock() against the leaf's rwlock. This situation is illustrated by the following diagram:

Task A Task B

  btrfs_ref_to_path()               btrfs_commit_transaction()
    read_lock(&eb->lock);
                                      btrfs_run_delayed_items()
                                        __btrfs_commit_inode_delayed_items()
                                          __btrfs_update_delayed_inode()
                                            btrfs_lookup_inode()

                                              write_lock(&eb->lock);
                                                --> task waits for lock

    read_lock(&eb->lock);
    --> makes this task hang
        forever (and task B too
      of course)
Quoted 6 lines

So fix this by avoiding doing the nested read lock, which is easily avoidable. This issue does not happen if task B calls write_lock() after task A does the second call to read_lock(), however there does not seem to exist anything in the documentation that mentions what is the expected behaviour for recursive locking of rwlocks (leaving the idea that doing so is not a good usage of rwlocks).

Quoted 2 lines

iterate_inode_refs() does it in anothe way, it's using btrfs_clone_extent_buffer() to keep btrfs from similar deadlock,

Yeah, I know, I made that fix long time ago.

Quoted 2 lines

it creates a clone so we don't have trouble on the original eb's read lock, it's more reasonable to me.

Here it would be overkill to do similar approach, and it's a different problem, we're not attempting to lock one leaf while having some other leaf locked. We just want to transition a lock from spinning to blocking mode - so it was silly to double read lock, we can do directly the transition and make sure the release path call below doesn't release the leaf. No need to waste memory and time cloning a leaf.

Yeah, this is just like unlock_up(), we just want to keep this one extent buffer locked. Filipe's patch should be fine.

This happens because in the code path executed by the inode_paths ioctl we end up nesting two calls to read lock a leaf's rwlock when after the first call to read_lock() and before the second call to read_lock(), another task (running the delayed items as part of a transaction commit) has already called write_lock() against the leaf's rwlock. This situation is illustrated by the following diagram:

Task A Task B

  btrfs_ref_to_path()               btrfs_commit_transaction()
    read_lock(&eb->lock);
                                      btrfs_run_delayed_items()
                                        __btrfs_commit_inode_delayed_items()
                                          __btrfs_update_delayed_inode()
                                            btrfs_lookup_inode()

                                              write_lock(&eb->lock);
                                                --> task waits for lock

    read_lock(&eb->lock);
    --> makes this task hang
        forever (and task B too
      of course)
Quoted 6 lines

So fix this by avoiding doing the nested read lock, which is easily avoidable. This issue does not happen if task B calls write_lock() after task A does the second call to read_lock(), however there does not seem to exist anything in the documentation that mentions what is the expected behaviour for recursive locking of rwlocks (leaving the idea that doing so is not a good usage of rwlocks).

Quoted 2 lines

iterate_inode_refs() does it in anothe way, it's using btrfs_clone_extent_buffer() to keep btrfs from similar deadlock,

Yeah, I know, I made that fix long time ago.

Quoted 2 lines

it creates a clone so we don't have trouble on the original eb's read lock, it's more reasonable to me.

Quoted 7 lines

Here it would be overkill to do similar approach, and it's a different problem, we're not attempting to lock one leaf while having some other leaf locked. We just want to transition a lock from spinning to blocking mode - so it was silly to double read lock, we can do directly the transition and make sure the release path call below doesn't release the leaf. No need to waste memory and time cloning a leaf.

Correct, I missed that fact, so the patch is good.

Since we're passing a clone eb into btrfs_ref_to_path(), the check 'if (eb != eb_in) will only be false for the first time when it enters into while(), maybe we can add 'likely' preference for it.

This happens because in the code path executed by the inode_paths ioctl we end up nesting two calls to read lock a leaf's rwlock when after the first call to read_lock() and before the second call to read_lock(), another task (running the delayed items as part of a transaction commit) has already called write_lock() against the leaf's rwlock. This situation is illustrated by the following diagram:

Task A Task B

  btrfs_ref_to_path()               btrfs_commit_transaction()
    read_lock(&eb->lock);
                                      btrfs_run_delayed_items()
                                        __btrfs_commit_inode_delayed_items()
                                          __btrfs_update_delayed_inode()
                                            btrfs_lookup_inode()

                                              write_lock(&eb->lock);
                                                --> task waits for lock

    read_lock(&eb->lock);
    --> makes this task hang
        forever (and task B too
      of course)
Quoted 6 lines

So fix this by avoiding doing the nested read lock, which is easily avoidable. This issue does not happen if task B calls write_lock() after task A does the second call to read_lock(), however there does not seem to exist anything in the documentation that mentions what is the expected behaviour for recursive locking of rwlocks (leaving the idea that doing so is not a good usage of rwlocks).

Quoted 2 lines

iterate_inode_refs() does it in anothe way, it's using btrfs_clone_extent_buffer() to keep btrfs from similar deadlock,

Yeah, I know, I made that fix long time ago.

Quoted 2 lines

it creates a clone so we don't have trouble on the original eb's read lock, it's more reasonable to me.

Quoted 7 lines

Here it would be overkill to do similar approach, and it's a different problem, we're not attempting to lock one leaf while having some other leaf locked. We just want to transition a lock from spinning to blocking mode - so it was silly to double read lock, we can do directly the transition and make sure the release path call below doesn't release the leaf. No need to waste memory and time cloning a leaf.

Quoted 5 lines

Correct, I missed that fact, so the patch is good.

Since we're passing a clone eb into btrfs_ref_to_path(), the check 'if (eb != eb_in) will only be false for the first time when it enters into while(), maybe we can add 'likely' preference for it.

What do you mean by 'likely' preference? The macro likely/unlikely?

This happens because in the code path executed by the inode_paths ioctl we end up nesting two calls to read lock a leaf's rwlock when after the first call to read_lock() and before the second call to read_lock(), another task (running the delayed items as part of a transaction commit) has already called write_lock() against the leaf's rwlock. This situation is illustrated by the following diagram:

Task A Task B

  btrfs_ref_to_path()               btrfs_commit_transaction()
    read_lock(&eb->lock);
                                      btrfs_run_delayed_items()
                                        __btrfs_commit_inode_delayed_items()
                                          __btrfs_update_delayed_inode()
                                            btrfs_lookup_inode()

                                              write_lock(&eb->lock);
                                                --> task waits for lock

    read_lock(&eb->lock);
    --> makes this task hang
        forever (and task B too
      of course)
Quoted 6 lines

So fix this by avoiding doing the nested read lock, which is easily avoidable. This issue does not happen if task B calls write_lock() after task A does the second call to read_lock(), however there does not seem to exist anything in the documentation that mentions what is the expected behaviour for recursive locking of rwlocks (leaving the idea that doing so is not a good usage of rwlocks).

Quoted 2 lines

iterate_inode_refs() does it in anothe way, it's using btrfs_clone_extent_buffer() to keep btrfs from similar deadlock,

Yeah, I know, I made that fix long time ago.

Quoted 2 lines

it creates a clone so we don't have trouble on the original eb's read lock, it's more reasonable to me.

Here it would be overkill to do similar approach, and it's a different problem, we're not attempting to lock one leaf while having some other leaf locked. We just want to transition a lock from spinning to blocking mode - so it was silly to double read lock, we can do directly the transition and make sure the release path call below doesn't release the leaf. No need to waste memory and time cloning a leaf.

Correct, I missed that fact, so the patch is good.

Since we're passing a clone eb into btrfs_ref_to_path(), the check 'if (eb != eb_in) will only be false for the first time when it enters into while(), maybe we can add 'likely' preference for it.

What do you mean by 'likely' preference? The macro likely/unlikely?

Exactly, the macro likely/unlikely.

This happens because in the code path executed by the inode_paths ioctl we end up nesting two calls to read lock a leaf's rwlock when after the first call to read_lock() and before the second call to read_lock(), another task (running the delayed items as part of a transaction commit) has already called write_lock() against the leaf's rwlock. This situation is illustrated by the following diagram:

Task A Task B

  btrfs_ref_to_path()               btrfs_commit_transaction()
    read_lock(&eb->lock);
                                      btrfs_run_delayed_items()
                                        __btrfs_commit_inode_delayed_items()
                                          __btrfs_update_delayed_inode()
                                            btrfs_lookup_inode()

                                              write_lock(&eb->lock);
                                                --> task waits for lock

    read_lock(&eb->lock);
    --> makes this task hang
        forever (and task B too
      of course)
Quoted 6 lines

So fix this by avoiding doing the nested read lock, which is easily avoidable. This issue does not happen if task B calls write_lock() after task A does the second call to read_lock(), however there does not seem to exist anything in the documentation that mentions what is the expected behaviour for recursive locking of rwlocks (leaving the idea that doing so is not a good usage of rwlocks).

Quoted 2 lines

iterate_inode_refs() does it in anothe way, it's using btrfs_clone_extent_buffer() to keep btrfs from similar deadlock,

Yeah, I know, I made that fix long time ago.

Quoted 2 lines

it creates a clone so we don't have trouble on the original eb's read lock, it's more reasonable to me.

Quoted 7 lines

Here it would be overkill to do similar approach, and it's a different problem, we're not attempting to lock one leaf while having some other leaf locked. We just want to transition a lock from spinning to blocking mode - so it was silly to double read lock, we can do directly the transition and make sure the release path call below doesn't release the leaf. No need to waste memory and time cloning a leaf.

Correct, I missed that fact, so the patch is good.

Since we're passing a clone eb into btrfs_ref_to_path(), the check 'if (eb != eb_in) will only be false for the first time when it enters into while(), maybe we can add 'likely' preference for it.

What do you mean by 'likely' preference? The macro likely/unlikely?

Exactly, the macro likely/unlikely.

What's the point? Makes the code more unreadable and most often has negative effects (and cpus are good doing branch predictions nowadays I believe). Plus this isn't a performance critical piece of code (if it was, btrfs would be the fastest fs ever). Also it's not necessarily always true only for the first iteration, when used from send for example, eb_in isn't a cloned eb.

Thanks.

This happens because in the code path executed by the inode_paths ioctl we end up nesting two calls to read lock a leaf's rwlock when after the first call to read_lock() and before the second call to read_lock(), another task (running the delayed items as part of a transaction commit) has already called write_lock() against the leaf's rwlock. This situation is illustrated by the following diagram:

Task A Task B

  btrfs_ref_to_path()               btrfs_commit_transaction()
    read_lock(&eb->lock);
                                      btrfs_run_delayed_items()
                                        __btrfs_commit_inode_delayed_items()
                                          __btrfs_update_delayed_inode()
                                            btrfs_lookup_inode()

                                              write_lock(&eb->lock);
                                                --> task waits for lock

    read_lock(&eb->lock);
    --> makes this task hang
        forever (and task B too
	of course)
Quoted 6 lines

So fix this by avoiding doing the nested read lock, which is easily avoidable. This issue does not happen if task B calls write_lock() after task A does the second call to read_lock(), however there does not seem to exist anything in the documentation that mentions what is the expected behaviour for recursive locking of rwlocks (leaving the idea that doing so is not a good usage of rwlocks).

For anyone who cares about why the 2nd read_lock is blocked...

On archs which have enabled CONFIG_QUEUED_RWLOCKS, For nested read_lock who is not in interrupted context, it will be blocked if a write_lock is waiting in line.

This is the fair queued rwlock[1].

PATCH v2 1/1 Btrfs: fix hang on extent buffer lock caused by the inode_paths ioctl

In reply to [email protected]

From: Filipe Manana <[email protected]>

While doing some tests I ran into an hang on an extent buffer's rwlock that produced the following trace:

This happens because in the code path executed by the inode_paths ioctl we end up nesting two calls to read lock a leaf's rwlock when after the first call to read_lock() and before the second call to read_lock(), another task (running the delayed items as part of a transaction commit) has already called write_lock() against the leaf's rwlock. This situation is illustrated by the following diagram:

Task A Task B

  btrfs_ref_to_path()               btrfs_commit_transaction()

                                                --> task waits for lock

    read_lock(&eb->lock);
    --> makes this task hang
        forever (and task B too
	of course)

So fix this by avoiding doing the nested read lock, which is easily avoidable. This issue does not happen if task B calls write_lock() after task A does the second call to read_lock(), however there does not seem to exist anything in the documentation that mentions what is the expected behaviour for recursive locking of rwlocks (leaving the idea that doing so is not a good usage of rwlocks).

Also, as a side effect necessary for this fix, make sure we do not needlessly read lock extent buffers when the input path has skip_locking set (used when called from send).

V2: Folded the patch titled
"Btrfs: send, fix extent buffer tree lock assertion failure (BUG_ON)" into this patch since the problem it fixes could not happen without the first version of this patch (the only problem was unnecessary locking of extent buffers when path->skip_locking == 1).
