[PATCH v3] btrfs: fix BUG trying to resume balance without resume flag

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We set the BTRFS_BALANCE_RESUME flag in the btrfs_recover_balance()
only, which isn't called during the remount. So when resuming from
the paused balance we hit the BUG.

 kernel: kernel BUG at fs/btrfs/volumes.c:3890!
 ::
 kernel:  balance_kthread+0x51/0x60 [btrfs]
 kernel:  kthread+0x111/0x130
 ::
 kernel: RIP: btrfs_balance+0x12e1/0x1570 [btrfs] RSP: ffffba7d0090bde8

Reproducer:
  On a mounted BTRFS.

  btrfs balance start --full-balance /btrfs
  btrfs balance pause /btrfs
  mount -o remount,ro /dev/sdb /btrfs
  mount -o remount,rw /dev/sdb /btrfs

To fix this set the BTRFS_BALANCE_RESUME flag in btrfs_resume_balance_async().

v2->v3: . Hold fs_info->balance_lock because in remount context there can
	be more the one thread accessing the balance_ctl.
	. Don't remove the BTRFS_BALANCE_RESUME set at recover_balance
	as in the original code.
	. Add comments.
v1->v2: btrfs_resume_balance_async() can be called only from remount or
        mount, we don't need to hold fs_info->balance_lock.
