OSS sources with the xfs: fix buffer shudown reference count mismatch patch and xfstest 179.

xfstest 179 started to have various asserts starting with the "move the workers" series, but mostly the b_hold count is zero assert.

Now that the b_hold count is fixed, the asert is:

The inodes at 0xffff88034fd6f540, 0xffff88034fd6f840, 0xffff88034fd6f240 don't look valid.

I haven't spent much time on this.

The only way you are going to track this down is through tracing perag gets and puts, and finding the object that is missing a put. There are already tracepoints for these and they tell you the caller function, so that should be sufficient to find what function has a get without a put...

The other possibility is that there are buffers that have not be freed properly (or leaked), but IIRC this failure pre-exists attaching the perag to buffers....

The inodes at 0xffff88034fd6f540, 0xffff88034fd6f840, 0xffff88034fd6f240 don't look valid.

Those aren't inodes based on the addresses - they are all in the same page, so the size is at most 0x300 bytes (768 bytes). An XFS inode is larger than this, but a radix tree node is smaller (560 bytes and fits 7 to a page on my x86_64 machines), so I'm not sure what you have there. how big does /proc/slabinfo tell you a radix tree node is?

Cheers,

Dave.

I have been spending too much time in earlier versions of XFS.

Last night, I had a good laugh at my mistake when I realized the perag was not in an array...duh me, this is the radix tree of the perag structures. I could not do a crash "kmem" command, that would have given me a clue.

I *think* Ben is also seeing this assert on his 32 bit test machine. Thanks for the advice, I will do some investigation this weekend.
