Subject: [PATCH RESEND 2/2] f2fs: disable preemption when waiting on all pages
writeback
From: Chao Yu <yuchao0@...wei.com>
The following condition can happen in a preemptible kernel, it may cause
checkpointer hunging.
CPU0: CPU1:
- write_checkpoint
- do_checkpoint
- wait_on_all_pages_writeback
- f2fs_write_end_io
- wake_up
this is last writebacked page, but
no sleeper in sbi->cp_wait wait
queue, wake_up is not been called.
- prepare_to_wait(TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE)
Here, current task can been preempted,
but there will be no waker since last
write_end_io has bypassed wake_up. So
current task will sleep forever.
- io_schedule_timeout
Now we use spinlock to create a critical section to guarantee preemption
was disabled during racing in between wait_on_all_pages_writeback and
f2fs_write_end_io, so that above condition can be avoided.
