#1671395 — [PATCH v2] fs/dcache.c: fix spin lockup issue on nlru->lock

Subject[PATCH v2] fs/dcache.c: fix spin lockup issue on nlru->lock

In reply to#1670217
__list_lru_walk_one() acquires nlru spin lock (nlru->lock) for
longer duration if there are more number of items in the lru list.
As per the current code, it can hold the spin lock for upto maximum
UINT_MAX entries at a time. So if there are more number of items in
the lru list, then "BUG: spinlock lockup suspected" is observed in
the below path -

[<ffffff8eca0fb0bc>] spin_bug+0x90
[<ffffff8eca0fb220>] do_raw_spin_lock+0xfc
[<ffffff8ecafb7798>] _raw_spin_lock+0x28
[<ffffff8eca1ae884>] list_lru_add+0x28

[<ffffff8eca1e066c>] SyS_faccessat+0xd0
[<ffffff8eca084e30>] el0_svc_naked+0x24

This nlru->lock is acquired by another CPU in this path -

[<ffffff8eca1f5fd0>] d_lru_shrink_move+0x34
[<ffffff8eca1f6180>] dentry_lru_isolate_shrink+0x48
[<ffffff8eca1aeafc>] __list_lru_walk_one.isra.10+0x94

[<ffffff8eca0c040c>] kthread+0xf4
[<ffffff8eca084dd0>] ret_from_fork+0x10

Fix this lockup by reducing the number of entries to be shrinked
from the lru list to 1024 at once. Also, add cond_resched() before
processing the lru list again.

In an extreme case, a single invocation of list_lru_walk() can skip all
1024 dentries, in which case 'freed' will be 0 forcing us to break the
loop prematurely. I think we should loop until there's at least one
dentry left on the LRU, i.e.

	while (list_lru_count(&sb->s_dentry_lru) > 0)

However, even that wouldn't be quite correct, because list_lru_count()
iterates over all memory cgroups to sum list_lru_one->nr_items, which
can race with memcg offlining code migrating dentries off a dead cgroup
(see memcg_drain_all_list_lrus()). So it looks like to make this check
race-free, we need to account the number of entries on the LRU not only
per memcg, but also per node, i.e. add list_lru_node->nr_items.
Fortunately, list_lru entries can't be migrated between NUMA nodes.

It looks like list_lru_count() is iterating per node before iterating 
over all memory
cgroups as below -

unsigned long list_lru_count_node(struct list_lru *lru, int nid)
{
         long count = 0;
         int memcg_idx;

         count += __list_lru_count_one(lru, nid, -1);
         if (list_lru_memcg_aware(lru)) {
                 for_each_memcg_cache_index(memcg_idx)
                         count += __list_lru_count_one(lru, nid, memcg_idx);
         }
         return count;
}

The first call to __list_lru_count_one() is iterating all the items per 
node i.e, nlru->lru->nr_items.
Is my understanding correct? If not, could you please clarify on how to 
get the lru items per node?

lru->node[nid].lru.nr_items returned by __list_lru_count_one(lru, nid, -1)
only counts items accounted to the root cgroup, not the total number of
entries on the node.

> Is my understanding correct? If not, could you please clarify on how to get
> the lru items per node?

What I mean is iterating over list_lru_node->memcg_lrus to count the
number of entries on the node is racy. For example, suppose you have
three cgroups with the following values of list_lru_one->nr_items:

  0   0   10

While list_lru_count_node() is at #1, cgroup #2 is offlined and its
list_lru_one is drained, i.e. its entries are migrated to the parent
cgroup, which happens to be #0, i.e. we see the following picture:

 10   0   0

     ^^^
  memcg_ids points here in list_lru_count_node() 

Then the count returned by list_lru_count_node() will be 0, although
there are still 10 entries on the list.

To avoid this race, we could keep list_lru_node->lock locked while
walking over list_lru_node->memcg_lrus, but that's too heavy. I'd prefer
adding list_lru_node->nr_count which would be equal to the total number
of list_lru entries on the node, i.e. sum of list_lru_node->lru.nr_lrus
and list_lru_node->memcg_lrus->lru[]->nr_items.

Subject[PATCH v3 1/2] mm/list_lru.c: fix list_lru_count_node() to be race free
Message-ID<tXekP-3ac-63@gated-at.bofh.it>
In reply to#1672914
list_lru_count_node() iterates over all memcgs to get
the total number of entries on the node but it can race with
memcg_drain_all_list_lrus(), which migrates the entries from
a dead cgroup to another. This can return incorrect number of
entries from list_lru_count_node().

Fix this by keeping track of entries per node and simply return
it in list_lru_count_node().

#1676404 — [PATCH v3 2/2] fs/dcache.c: fix spin lockup issue on nlru->lock

In reply to#1676403
__list_lru_walk_one() acquires nlru spin lock (nlru->lock) for
longer duration if there are more number of items in the lru list.
As per the current code, it can hold the spin lock for upto maximum
UINT_MAX entries at a time. So if there are more number of items in
the lru list, then "BUG: spinlock lockup suspected" is observed in
the below path -

[<ffffff8eca0fb0bc>] spin_bug+0x90
[<ffffff8eca0fb220>] do_raw_spin_lock+0xfc

[<ffffff8eca1e066c>] SyS_faccessat+0xd0
[<ffffff8eca084e30>] el0_svc_naked+0x24

This nlru->lock is acquired by another CPU in this path -

[<ffffff8eca1f5fd0>] d_lru_shrink_move+0x34
[<ffffff8eca1f6180>] dentry_lru_isolate_shrink+0x48

[<ffffff8eca0c040c>] kthread+0xf4
[<ffffff8eca084dd0>] ret_from_fork+0x10

Fix this lockup by reducing the number of entries to be shrinked
from the lru list to 1024 at once. Also, add cond_resched() before
processing the lru list again.

v3: use list_lru_count() instead of freed in while loop to
cover an extreme case where a single invocation of list_lru_walk()
can skip all 1024 dentries, in which case 'freed' will be 0 forcing
us to break the loop prematurely. 

v2: patch shrink_dcache_sb() instead of list_lru_walk()

'nr_count' sounds awkward. I think it should be called 'nr_items'.

Other than that, looks good to me.

In reply to#1676961
list_lru_count_node() iterates over all memcgs to get
the total number of entries on the node but it can race with
memcg_drain_all_list_lrus(), which migrates the entries from
a dead cgroup to another. This can return incorrect number of
entries from list_lru_count_node().

Fix this by keeping track of entries per node and simply return
it in list_lru_count_node().

I'll add a cc:stable to this one - a large dentry list is a relatively
common thing.

I'm assumng that [1/2] does not need to be backported, OK?

I think we should include [1/2] as well along with this patch, as this patch
is using list_lru_count(), which can return incorrect count if [1/2] is 
not included.

Also, all the previous patches submitted for fixing this issue must be 
dropped i.e,
mm/list_lru.c: use cond_resched_lock() for nlru->lock must be dropped.
