OK, I'm appending a patch which attempts to solve this problem in OCFS2 code instead of up in the VFS. It's against a branch in OCFS2 svn, but one which isn't incomprehensibly different from what is in -mm. The idea is to stop the DLM thread from deadlocking on locked pages (which are held by other tasks waiting for the DLM) by tagging them with PG_fs_misc. The DLM thread knows that the pages are locked by callers who are waiting for the thread so they can assume ownership of the page lock, of a sort. The DLM thread writes back dirty data in the page manually so it doesn't unlock the callers page. It can basically ignore clean pages because they're going to be reread by the lock holder once they get the DLM lock. Comments in the patch above ocfs2_data_convert_worker, get_lock_or_fs_misc, ocfs2_write_dirty_fs_misc_page, and ocfs2_set_fs_misc lay this out. It introduces block_read_full_page() and truncate_inode_pages() derivatives which understand the PG_fs_misc special case. It needs a few export patches to the core, but the real burden is on OCFS2 to keep these derivatives up to date. Maybe after they stabilize for a while, and say another clustered file system has similar problems, we could roll some core helpers out of them. But for now it illustrates what the solution would look like in OCFS2. I'm sure I missed some corner cases, but this passes the most basic functional testing. The specific exports it needs from 2.6.14-rc4-mm1 are: $ grep '+EXPORT' patches/*.patch patches/add-wake_up_page_all.patch:+EXPORT_SYMBOL(__wake_up_bit_all); patches/add-wake_up_page_all.patch:+EXPORT_SYMBOL(wake_up_page_all); patches/export-pagevec-helpers.patch:+EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(pagevec_lookup); patches/export-page_waitqueue.patch:+EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(page_waitqueue); patches/export-truncate_complete_pate.patch:+EXPORT_SYMBOL(truncate_complete_page); patches/export-wake_up_page.patch:+EXPORT_SYMBOL(wake_up_page); that wake_up_page_all() is just a variant that provides 0 nr_exclusive to __wake_up_bit(): -void fastcall __wake_up_bit(wait_queue_head_t *wq, void *word, int bit) +static inline int __wake_up_bit_nr(wait_queue_head_t *wq, void *word, int bit, + int nr_exclusive) { struct wait_bit_key key = __WAIT_BIT_KEY_INITIALIZER(word, bit); if (waitqueue_active(wq)) - __wake_up(wq, TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE|TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE, 1, &key); + __wake_up(wq, TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE|TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE, + nr_exclusive, &key); +} + +void fastcall __wake_up_bit(wait_queue_head_t *wq, void *word, int bit) +{ + __wake_up_bit_nr(wq, word, bit, 1); } EXPORT_SYMBOL(__wake_up_bit); +void fastcall __wake_up_bit_all(wait_queue_head_t *wq, void *word, int bit) +{ + __wake_up_bit_nr(wq, word, bit, 0); +} +EXPORT_SYMBOL(__wake_up_bit_all); Is this preferable to the core changes and is it something that's mergeable? We'd love to come to a solution that won't be a barrier to merging so we can get on with it. I can send that exporting series if we decide this is the right thing. - z Index: fs/ocfs2/dlmglue.h =================================================================== --- fs/ocfs2/dlmglue.h (revision 2660) +++ fs/ocfs2/dlmglue.h (working copy) @@ -54,6 +54,8 @@ int ocfs2_create_new_inode_locks(struct int ocfs2_drop_inode_locks(struct inode *inode); int ocfs2_data_lock(struct inode *inode, int write); +int ocfs2_data_lock_holding_page(struct inode *inode, int write, + struct page *page); void ocfs2_data_unlock(struct inode *inode, int write); int ocfs2_rw_lock(struct inode *inode, int write); @@ -70,6 +72,11 @@ int ocfs2_meta_lock_full(struct inode *i /* 99% of the time we don't want to supply any additional flags -- * those are for very specific cases only. */ #define ocfs2_meta_lock(i, h, b, e) ocfs2_meta_lock_full(i, h, b, e, 0) +int ocfs2_meta_lock_holding_page(struct inode *inode, + ocfs2_journal_handle *handle, + struct buffer_head **ret_bh, + int ex, + struct page *page); void ocfs2_meta_unlock(struct inode *inode, int ex); int ocfs2_super_lock(ocfs2_super *osb, Index: fs/ocfs2/aops.c =================================================================== --- fs/ocfs2/aops.c (revision 2661) +++ fs/ocfs2/aops.c (working copy) @@ -130,8 +130,8 @@ bail: return err; } -static int ocfs2_get_block(struct inode *inode, sector_t iblock, - struct buffer_head *bh_result, int create) +int ocfs2_get_block(struct inode *inode, sector_t iblock, + struct buffer_head *bh_result, int create) { int err = 0; u64 p_blkno, past_eof; @@ -198,7 +198,7 @@ static int ocfs2_readpage(struct file *f mlog_entry("(0x%p, %lu)\n", file, (page ? page->index : 0)); - ret = ocfs2_meta_lock(inode, NULL, NULL, 0); + ret = ocfs2_meta_lock_holding_page(inode, NULL, NULL, 0, page); if (ret < 0) { mlog_errno(ret); goto out; @@ -226,7 +226,7 @@ static int ocfs2_readpage(struct file *f goto out_alloc; } - ret = ocfs2_data_lock(inode, 0); + ret = ocfs2_data_lock_holding_page(inode, 0, page); if (ret < 0) { mlog_errno(ret); goto out_alloc; @@ -283,7 +283,7 @@ int ocfs2_prepare_write(struct file *fil mlog_entry("(0x%p, 0x%p, %u, %u)\n", file, page, from, to); - ret = ocfs2_meta_lock(inode, NULL, NULL, 0); + ret = ocfs2_meta_lock_holding_page(inode, NULL, NULL, 0, page); if (ret < 0) { mlog_errno(ret); goto out; @@ -397,13 +397,14 @@ static int ocfs2_commit_write(struct fil locklevel = 1; } - ret = ocfs2_meta_lock(inode, NULL, &di_bh, locklevel); + ret = ocfs2_meta_lock_holding_page(inode, NULL, &di_bh, locklevel, + page); if (ret < 0) { mlog_errno(ret); goto out; } - ret = ocfs2_data_lock(inode, 1); + ret = ocfs2_data_lock_holding_page(inode, 1, page); if (ret < 0) { mlog_errno(ret); goto out_unlock_meta; Index: fs/ocfs2/aops.h =================================================================== --- fs/ocfs2/aops.h (revision 2660) +++ fs/ocfs2/aops.h (working copy) @@ -22,6 +22,8 @@ #ifndef OCFS2_AOPS_H #define OCFS2_AOPS_H +int ocfs2_get_block(struct inode *inode, sector_t iblock, + struct buffer_head *bh_result, int create); int ocfs2_prepare_write(struct file *file, struct page *page, unsigned from, unsigned to); Index: fs/ocfs2/dlmglue.c =================================================================== --- fs/ocfs2/dlmglue.c (revision 2660) +++ fs/ocfs2/dlmglue.c (working copy) @@ -30,6 +30,8 @@ #include #include #include +#include +#include #include #include @@ -43,6 +45,7 @@ #include "ocfs2.h" #include "alloc.h" +#include "aops.h" #include "dlmglue.h" #include "extent_map.h" #include "heartbeat.h" @@ -113,9 +116,6 @@ static struct ocfs2_lock_res_ops ocfs2_i .unblock = ocfs2_unblock_meta, }; -static void ocfs2_data_convert_worker(struct ocfs2_lock_res *lockres, - int blocking); - static struct ocfs2_lock_res_ops ocfs2_inode_data_lops = { .ast = ocfs2_inode_ast_func, .bast = ocfs2_inode_bast_func, @@ -1154,6 +1154,43 @@ out: return status; } +/* + * The use of PG_fs_misc here is working around a lock ordering inversion. + * We're indicating to the DLM vote thread (the thread which invalidates the + * page cache of inodes who are releasing their locks to other nodes) that + * we're about to sleep on the DLM while holding a page lock.
