[PATCH 0/7] btrfs: workqueue fixes+cleanups

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

 



From: Omar Sandoval <osandov@xxxxxx>

Hello,

This series fixes a few issues with Btrfs' use of workqueues.

The bulk of this series fixes multiple cases of the same bug: a work
item shouldn't be freed while it potentially depends on any other work
items. Currently, we've mostly been side-stepping this issue by having
different work functions for different work types (see commit
9e0af2376434 ("Btrfs: fix task hang under heavy compressed write").
However, there are cases where a work function can depend on itself,
usually through stacked filesystems (e.g., loop devices).

Patch 1 is a trivial cleanup.

Patches 2-5 fix all of the cases of this bug that I could find. Patch 2
is the ordered_free fix I previously sent [1], now with an updated title
and Josef's fix [2] folded in. Patch 3 fixes the deadlock reported with
my previous cleanup, and patches 4 and 5 fix similar issues.

With all of those fixed, patch 6 is my previous cleanup [3] to get rid
of the different work functions. Patch 7 is the same cleanup [4] as from
before.

Based on misc-next.

Thanks!
