Roberto, I think we need to resolve this somehow. As I mentioned
earlier, I don't believe this to be a fault in your patch, rather that
patch simply triggered a situation that had not been present before,
likely because the reiserfs code always failed when writing LSM
xattrs. Regardless, we still need to fix the deadlocks that sysbot
has been reporting.
Has anyone dug into the reiserfs code to try and resolve the deadlock?
Considering the state of reiserfs, I'm guessing no one has, and I
can't blame them; I personally would have a hard time justifying
significant time spent on reiserfs at this point. Unless someone has
any better ideas, I'm wondering if we shouldn't just admit defeat with
reiserfs and LSM xattrs and disable/remove the reiserfs LSM xattr
support? Given the bug that Roberto was fixing with the patch in
question, it's unlikely this was working anyway.

Thanks Roberto. If it gets to be too challenging, let us know and we
can look into safely disabling the LSM xattrs for reiserfs, I'll be
shocked if anyone is successfully using LSM xattrs on reiserfs.

[ 628.589974][ T6003] REISERFS warning (device loop0): sh-2029: %s: bitmap block (#%u) reading failed reiserfs_read_bitmap_block: reiserfs_read_bitmap_block
This message appears because we are here:
struct buffer_head *reiserfs_read_bitmap_block(struct super_block *sb,
unsigned int bitmap)
{
[...]
bh = sb_bread(sb, block);
if (bh == NULL)
reiserfs_warning(sb, "sh-2029: %s: bitmap block (#%u) "
"reading failed", __func__, block);
The hanging task (kthread) is trying to hold the same lock, which
unfortunately is not going to be released soon:
static int reiserfs_sync_fs(struct super_block *s, int wait)
{
[...]
reiserfs_write_lock(s);
I didn't get yet if the reason of this long loop is because we cannot
flush at this point, or just because of the test. I tried to
synchronously flush, but didn't make any difference.
I did a very simple change, which can be totally wrong:
@@ -94,7 +96,7 @@ static void flush_old_commits(struct work_struct *work)
* trylock as reiserfs_cancel_old_flush() may be waiting for this work
* to complete with s_umount held.
*/
- if (!down_read_trylock(&s->s_umount)) {
+ if (sbi->lock_owner || !down_read_trylock(&s->s_umount)) {
/* Requeue work if we are not cancelling it */
spin_lock(&sbi->old_work_lock);
if (sbi->work_queued == 1)
If the lock is held, instead of waiting, reschedule the flush.
Anyway, at least this report does not seem to be related to fixing
security xattrs.

Well, the commit d82dcd9e21b ("reiserfs: Add security prefix to xattr name
in reiserfs_security_write()") looks obviously broken to me. It does:
char xattr_name[XATTR_NAME_MAX + 1] = XATTR_SECURITY_PREFIX;
Which is not how we can initialize strings in C... ;)

Thanks for having a look!
Sorry for the silly question, do I need to patch it? It is already in
stable kernels... (next time I document myself better)
Thanks
