ms commit 4c54659269ec
We already allocate delalloc blocks before changing the inode mode into
"per-file data journal" mode to prevent delalloc blocks from remaining
not allocated, but another issue concerned with "BH_Unwritten" status
still exists. For example, by fallocate(), several buffers' status
change into "BH_Unwritten", but these buffers cannot be processed by
ext4_alloc_da_blocks(). So, they still remain in unwritten status after
per-file data journaling is enabled and they cannot be changed into
written status any more and, if they are journaled and eventually
checkpointed, these unwritten buffer will cause a kernel panic by the
below BUG_ON() function of submit_bh_wbc() when they are submitted
during checkpointing.
static int submit_bh_wbc(int rw, struct buffer_head *bh,...
{
...
BUG_ON(buffer_unwritten(bh));
Moreover, when "dioread_nolock" option is enabled, the status of a
buffer is changed into "BH_Unwritten" after write_begin() completes and
the "BH_Unwritten" status will be cleared after I/O is done. Therefore,
if a buffer's status is changed into unwrutten but the buffer's I/O is
not submitted and completed, it can cause the same problem after
enabling per-file data journaling. You can easily generate this bug by
executing the following command.
./kvm-xfstests -C 10000 -m nodelalloc,dioread_nolock generic/269
To resolve these problems and define a boundary between the previous
mode and per-file data journaling mode, we need to flush and wait all
the I/O of buffers of a file before enabling per-file data journaling
of the file.
