commitba4a76f703upstream. Currently when falling back to doing I/O through the MDS (via pnfs_{read|write}_through_mds), the client frees the nfs_pgio_header without releasing the reference taken on the dreq via pnfs_generic_pg_{read|write}pages -> nfs_pgheader_init -> nfs_direct_pgio_init. It then takes another reference on the dreq via nfs_generic_pg_pgios -> nfs_pgheader_init -> nfs_direct_pgio_init and as a result the requester will become stuck in inode_dio_wait. Once that happens, other processes accessing the inode will become stuck as well. Ensure that pnfs_read_through_mds() and pnfs_write_through_mds() clean up correctly by calling hdr->completion_ops->completion() instead of calling hdr->release() directly. This can be reproduced (sometimes) by performing "storage failover takeover" commands on NetApp filer while doing direct I/O from a client. This can also be reproduced using SystemTap to simulate a failure while doing direct I/O from a client (from Dave Wysochanski <dwysocha@redhat.com>): stap -v -g -e 'probe module("nfs_layout_nfsv41_files").function("nfs4_fl_prepare_ds").return { $return=NULL; exit(); }' Suggested-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@primarydata.com> Signed-off-by: Scott Mayhew <smayhew@redhat.com> Fixes:1ca018d28d("pNFS: Fix a memory leak when attempted pnfs fails") Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@primarydata.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
