ocfs2: fix deadlock on mmapped page in ocfs2_write_begin_nolock()
The testcase "mmaptruncate" of ocfs2-test deadlocks occasionally.
In this testcase, we create a 2*CLUSTER_SIZE file and mmap() on it;
there are 2 process repeatedly performing the following operations
respectively: one is doing memset(mmaped_addr + 2*CLUSTER_SIZE - 1, 'a',
1), while the another is playing ftruncate(fd, 2*CLUSTER_SIZE) and then
ftruncate(fd, CLUSTER_SIZE) again and again.
This is the backtrace when the deadlock happens:
__wait_on_bit_lock+0x50/0xa0
__lock_page+0xb7/0xc0
ocfs2_write_begin_nolock+0x163f/0x1790 [ocfs2]
ocfs2_page_mkwrite+0x1c7/0x2a0 [ocfs2]
do_page_mkwrite+0x66/0xc0
handle_mm_fault+0x685/0x1350
__do_page_fault+0x1d8/0x4d0
trace_do_page_fault+0x37/0xf0
do_async_page_fault+0x19/0x70
async_page_fault+0x28/0x30
In ocfs2_write_begin_nolock(), we first grab the pages and then allocate
disk space for this write; ocfs2_try_to_free_truncate_log() will be
called if -ENOSPC is returned; if we're lucky to get enough clusters,
which is usually the case, we start over again.
But in ocfs2_free_write_ctxt() the target page isn't unlocked, so we
will deadlock when trying to grab the target page again.
Also, -ENOMEM might be returned in ocfs2_grab_pages_for_write().
Another deadlock will happen in __do_page_mkwrite() if
ocfs2_page_mkwrite() returns non-VM_FAULT_LOCKED, and along with a
locked target page.
These two errors fail on the same path, so fix them by unlocking the
target page manually before ocfs2_free_write_ctxt().
Jan Kara helps me clear out the JBD2 part, and suggest the hint for root
cause.
Changes since v1:
1. Also put ENOMEM error case into consideration.
