Subject: [PATCH 4.4 206/241] Btrfs: fix race updating log root item during fsync
From: Filipe Manana <fdmanana@...e.com>
commit 06989c799f04810f6876900d4760c0edda369cf7 upstream.
When syncing the log, the final phase of a fsync operation, we need to
either create a log root's item or update the existing item in the log
tree of log roots, and that depends on the current value of the log
root's log_transid - if it's 1 we need to create the log root item,
otherwise it must exist already and we update it. Since there is no
synchronization between updating the log_transid and checking it for
deciding whether the log root's item needs to be created or updated, we
end up with a tiny race window that results in attempts to update the
item to fail because the item was not yet created:
CPU 1 CPU 2
btrfs_sync_log()
lock root->log_mutex
set log root's log_transid to 1
unlock root->log_mutex
btrfs_sync_log()
lock root->log_mutex
sets log root's
log_transid to 2
unlock root->log_mutex
update_log_root()
sees log root's log_transid
with a value of 2
calls btrfs_update_root(),
which fails with -EUCLEAN
and causes transaction abort
Until recently the race lead to a BUG_ON at btrfs_update_root(), but after
the recent commit 7ac1e464c4d47 ("btrfs: Don't panic when we can't find a
root key") we just abort the current transaction.
A sample trace of the BUG_ON() on a SLE12 kernel:

So fix this by doing the check of log_transid and updating or creating the
log root's item while holding the root's log_mutex.
