Btrfs: fix lockdep warning on deadlock against an inode's log mutex
Commit 44f714dae50a ("Btrfs: improve performance on fsync against new inode after rename/unlink"), which landed in 4.8-rc2, introduced a possibility for a deadlock due to double locking of an inode's log mutex by the same task, which lockdep reports with: [23045.433975] ============================================= [23045.434748] [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ] [23045.435426] 4.7.0-rc6-btrfs-next-34+ #1 Not tainted [23045.436044] --------------------------------------------- [23045.436044] xfs_io/3688 is trying to acquire lock: [23045.436044] (&ei->log_mutex){+.+...}, at: [<ffffffffa038552d>] btrfs_log_inode+0x13a/0xc95 [btrfs] [23045.436044] but task is already holding lock: [23045.436044] (&ei->log_mutex){+.+...}, at: [<ffffffffa038552d>] btrfs_log_inode+0x13a/0xc95 [btrfs] [23045.436044] other info that might help us debug this: [23045.436044] Possible unsafe locking scenario: [23045.436044] CPU0 [23045.436044] ---- [23045.436044] lock(&ei->log_mutex); [23045.436044] lock(&ei->log_mutex); [23045.436044] *** DEADLOCK *** [23045.436044] May be due to missing lock nesting notation [23045.436044] 3 locks held by xfs_io/3688: [23045.436044] #0: (&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#15){+.+...}, at: [<ffffffffa035f2ae>] btrfs_sync_file+0x14e/0x425 [btrfs] [23045.436044] #1: (sb_internal#2){.+.+.+}, at: [<ffffffff8118446b>] __sb_start_write+0x5f/0xb0 [23045.436044] #2: (&ei->log_mutex){+.+...}, at: [<ffffffffa038552d>] btrfs_log_inode+0x13a/0xc95 [btrfs] [23045.436044] stack backtrace: [23045.436044] CPU: 4 PID: 3688 Comm: xfs_io Not tainted 4.7.0-rc6-btrfs-next-34+ #1 [23045.436044] Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.9.1-0-gb3ef39f-prebuilt.qemu-project.org 04/01/2014 [23045.436044] 0000000000000000 ffff88022f5f7860 ffffffff8127074d ffffffff82a54b70 [23045.436044] ffffffff82a54b70 ffff88022f5f7920 ffffffff81092897 ffff880228015d68 [23045.436044] 0000000000000000 ffffffff82a54b70 ffffffff829c3f00 ffff880228015d68 [23045.436044] Call Trace: [23045.436044] [<ffffffff8127074d>] dump_stack+0x67/0x90 [23045.436044] [<ffffffff81092897>] __lock_acquire+0xcbb/0xe4e [23045.436044] [<ffffffff8109155f>] ? mark_lock+0x24/0x201 [23045.436044] [<ffffffff8109179a>] ? mark_held_locks+0x5e/0x74 [23045.436044] [<ffffffff81092de0>] lock_acquire+0x12f/0x1c3 [23045.436044] [<ffffffff81092de0>] ? lock_acquire+0x12f/0x1c3 [23045.436044] [<ffffffffa038552d>] ? btrfs_log_inode+0x13a/0xc95 [btrfs] [23045.436044] [<ffffffffa038552d>] ? btrfs_log_inode+0x13a/0xc95 [btrfs] [23045.436044] [<ffffffff814a51a4>] mutex_lock_nested+0x77/0x3a7 [23045.436044] [<ffffffffa038552d>] ? btrfs_log_inode+0x13a/0xc95 [btrfs] [23045.436044] [<ffffffffa039705e>] ? btrfs_release_delayed_node+0xb/0xd [btrfs] [23045.436044] [<ffffffffa038552d>] btrfs_log_inode+0x13a/0xc95 [btrfs] [23045.436044] [<ffffffffa038552d>] ? btrfs_log_inode+0x13a/0xc95 [btrfs] [23045.436044] [<ffffffff810a0ed1>] ? vprintk_emit+0x453/0x465 [23045.436044] [<ffffffffa0385a61>] btrfs_log_inode+0x66e/0xc95 [btrfs] [23045.436044] [<ffffffffa03c084d>] log_new_dir_dentries+0x26c/0x359 [btrfs] [23045.436044] [<ffffffffa03865aa>] btrfs_log_inode_parent+0x4a6/0x628 [btrfs] [23045.436044] [<ffffffffa0387552>] btrfs_log_dentry_safe+0x5a/0x75 [btrfs] [23045.436044] [<ffffffffa035f464>] btrfs_sync_file+0x304/0x425 [btrfs] [23045.436044] [<ffffffff811acaf4>] vfs_fsync_range+0x8c/0x9e [23045.436044] [<ffffffff811acb22>] vfs_fsync+0x1c/0x1e [23045.436044] [<ffffffff811acc79>] do_fsync+0x31/0x4a [23045.436044] [<ffffffff811ace99>] SyS_fsync+0x10/0x14 [23045.436044] [<ffffffff814a88e5>] entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x18/0xa8 [23045.436044] [<ffffffff8108f039>] ? trace_hardirqs_off_caller+0x3f/0xaa An example reproducer for this is: $ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdb $ mount /dev/sdb /mnt $ mkdir /mnt/dir $ touch /mnt/dir/foo $ sync $ mv /mnt/dir/foo /mnt/dir/bar $ touch /mnt/dir/foo $ xfs_io -c "fsync" /mnt/dir/bar This is because while logging the inode of file bar we end up logging its parent directory (since its inode has an unlink_trans field matching the current transaction id due to the rename operation), which in turn logs the inodes for all its new dentries, so that the new inode for the new file named foo gets logged which in turn triggered another logging attempt for the inode we are fsync'ing, since that inode had an old name that corresponds to the name of the new inode. So fix this by ensuring that when logging the inode for a new dentry that has a name matching an old name of some other inode, we don't log again the original inode that we are fsync'ing.
