      bcache: fix deadlock in bcache_allocator · 84c529ae
      Andrea Righi authored
      bcache_allocator can call the following:
      
       bch_allocator_thread()
        -> bch_prio_write()
           -> bch_bucket_alloc()
              -> wait on &ca->set->bucket_wait
      
      But the wake up event on bucket_wait is supposed to come from
      bch_allocator_thread() itself => deadlock:
      
      [ 1158.490744] INFO: task bcache_allocato:15861 blocked for more than 10 seconds.

      Fix by making the call to bch_prio_write() non-blocking, so that
      bch_allocator_thread() never waits on itself.
      
      Moreover, make sure to wake up the garbage collector thread when
      bch_prio_write() is failing to allocate buckets.

      bcache: deleted code comments for dead code in bch_data_insert_keys() · 41fa4dee

      In request.c:bch_data_insert_keys(), there is code comment for a piece
      of dead code. This patch deletes the dead code and its code comment
      since they are useless in practice.

      bcache: fix static checker warning in bcache_device_free() · 2d886951
      Coly Li authored
      Commit cafe5635 ("bcache: A block layer cache") leads to the
      following static checker warning:
      
          ./drivers/md/bcache/super.c:770 bcache_device_free()
          warn: variable dereferenced before check 'd->disk' (see line 766)
      
      drivers/md/bcache/super.c
         762  static void bcache_device_free(struct bcache_device *d)
         763  {
         764          lockdep_assert_held(&bch_register_lock);
         765
         766          pr_info("%s stopped", d->disk->disk_name);
                                            ^^^^^^^^^
      Unchecked dereference.
      
         767
         768          if (d->c)
         769                  bcache_device_detach(d);
         770          if (d->disk && d->disk->flags & GENHD_FL_UP)
                          ^^^^^^^
      Check too late.
      
         771                  del_gendisk(d->disk);
         772          if (d->disk && d->disk->queue)
         773                  blk_cleanup_queue(d->disk->queue);
         774          if (d->disk) {
         775                  ida_simple_remove(&bcache_device_idx,
         776                                    first_minor_to_idx(d->disk->first_minor));
         777                  put_disk(d->disk);
         778          }
         779
      
      It is not 100% sure that the gendisk struct of bcache device will always
      be there, the warning makes sense when there is problem in block core.
      
      This patch tries to remove the static checking warning by checking
      d->disk to avoid NULL pointer deferences.

      bcache: fix a lost wake-up problem caused by mca_cannibalize_lock · 34cf78bf
      Guoju Fang authored
      This patch fix a lost wake-up problem caused by the race between
      mca_cannibalize_lock and bch_cannibalize_unlock.
      
      Consider two processes, A and B. Process A is executing
      mca_cannibalize_lock, while process B takes c->btree_cache_alloc_lock
      and is executing bch_cannibalize_unlock. The problem happens that after
      process A executes cmpxchg and will execute prepare_to_wait. In this
      timeslice process B executes wake_up, but after that process A executes
      prepare_to_wait and set the state to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE. Then process A
      goes to sleep but no one will wake up it. This problem may cause bcache
      device to dead.

      bcache: fix fifo index swapping condition in journal_pin_cmp() · c0e0954e
      Coly Li authored
      Fifo structure journal.pin is implemented by a cycle buffer, if the back
      index reaches highest location of the cycle buffer, it will be swapped
      to 0. Once the swapping happens, it means a smaller fifo index might be
      associated to a newer journal entry. So the btree node with oldest
      journal entry won't be selected in bch_btree_leaf_dirty() to reference
      the dirty B+tree leaf node. This problem may cause bcache journal won't
      protect unflushed oldest B+tree dirty leaf node in power failure, and
      this B+tree leaf node is possible to beinconsistent after reboot from
      power failure.
      
      This patch fixes the fifo index comparing logic in journal_pin_cmp(),
      to avoid potential corrupted B+tree leaf node when the back index of
      journal pin is swapped.
