The D state of wait_on_all_pages_writeback should be waken by
function f2fs_write_end_io when all writeback pages have been
succesfully written to device. It's possible that wake_up comes
between get_pages and io_schedule. Maybe in this case it will
lost wake_up and still in D state even if all pages have been
write back to device, and finally, the whole system will be into
the hungtask state.

                if (!get_pages(sbi, F2FS_WRITEBACK))
                         break;
					<---------  wake_up
                io_schedule();

I haven't encountered such issue so far, do you suffer this in real
world?

wake_up will put all tasks linked in sbi->cp_wait on run-queue, so
here it should be save to call io_schedule, after being rescheduled,
it will get the chance to check above condition to break out.

yes, I have encounter it, the whole file system is blocked at function
wait_on_all_pages_writeback beyond 120s when write cp, and no error reported
by storage device driver.

Here, we just doubt something weird may cause wait_on_all_pages_writeback
could not be waken. Wake_up trigger only one time by last bio's end_io
function, if the thread happen to miss it, the thread will be in D state
forever. So we change the code to make wait_on_all_pages_writeback awaken
periodically, then check the condition.

Could this reproducible? If it could, could you please share the details.
And did this occur in a huge size f2fs image?

Got it.

The patch can fix issue that checkpointer will wait forever in case of
write_end_io was failed to call wake_up for some reason.

But I doubt more that the reason we are stuck is there are remained pages
cached in bio buffer without being submitted. To make sure, maybe in
wait_on_all_pages_writeback we could add print info to see whether
sbi->write_io[].bio is valid or not.

Hi YunLei

Interesting...
How to prove the page isn't been locked by storage block layer which
doesn't finish the related bio?

I suffer that case before, but then I solve it by seting a timer to
break my mmc driver while missing some important interrupts(chip
problem) for data-transfer to finish the io queue by mmcqd.

Another thing,
why making 5HZ for timeout? why not 10HZ ,15HZ...
io_schedule_timeout(5*HZ);

We use tool dump f2fs_sb_info information and find that:

	write_io[DATA].bio = 0;
	write_io[NODE].bio = 0;
	write_io[META].bio = 0;

	nr_pages[F2FS_WRITEBACK] = 0;
	nr_pages[F2FS_DIRTY_DENTS] = 0;
	nr_pages[F2FS_DIRTY_NODES] = 13;
	nr_pages[F2FS_DIRTY_META] = 0;
	nr_pages[F2FS_INMEM_PAGES] = 0;

So we believe that the block device is ok!

Thanks for your review, I has replied Chao about the info of f2fs_sb_info,
and from the info we can make sure the block layer and device driver are
both ok.

We choose 5HZ in our test, maybe other value is more reasonable.

I found one possible case:

CPU0:					CPU1:
 - write_checkpoint
  - do_checkpoint
   - wait_on_all_pages_writeback
					 - f2fs_write_end_io
					  - wake_up
					this is last writebacked page, but
					no sleeper in sbi->cp_wait wait
					queue, wake_up is not been called.
    - prepare_to_wait(TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE)
    Here, current task is been preempted,
    but there will be no waker to wake up
    this task since last write_end_io
    has been called before. So current
    task will sleep forever.
    - io_schedule

How do you think of it?

And if this is right, following patch can fix this issue.

Weird, dirty nodes count should be 0.

Hi Chao,

Here, current task add itself into wait queue at first, and then check the
condition whether write back page is zero. So, in the above situation,
current task is been preempted in - prepare_to_wait(TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE),
current task will not sleep for the write back page is zero.

Thanks,

Oh, I meant:

 - prepare_to_wait(TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE)
 - Preempt
 - if (!get_pages(sbi, F2FS_WRITEBACK)) break;    or maybe preempt here
 - io_schedule
 - finish_wait

Even there is no more writeback state page, also preemption can happen before
finish_wait, after that, once the task was been switched out, as it was set as
TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE, there is no chance to schedule it again.

First, according to our hungtask stack, we can confirm we are in io_schedule.

Secondly, from my point of view, it is safe to preempt regardless of the task's state. It will 
eventually reschedule. You can see kernel\sched\core.c :: __schedule. If PREEMPT_ACTIVE 
is set, the current task will be put back to the run queue.

Hi Chao,

In our code,

1524 static int f2fs_write_end(struct file *file,
1525                         struct address_space *mapping,
1526                         loff_t pos, unsigned len, unsigned copied,
1527                         struct page *page, void *fsdata)
1528 {
1529         struct inode *inode = page->mapping->host;
1530
1531         trace_f2fs_write_end(inode, pos, len, copied);
1532
1533         set_page_dirty(page);
1534
1535         if (pos + copied > i_size_read(inode)) {
1536                 i_size_write(inode, pos + copied);
1537                 mark_inode_dirty(inode);
1538                 update_inode_page(inode);
1539         }
1540
1541         f2fs_put_page(page, 1);
1542         return copied;
1543 }

Here update_inode_page(inode) has been removed by Kim, maybe here could
result dirty node page is not zero.

Thanks,

Oh, IMO, it can prove that we actually arrive there, not being preempted, thanks
for your information.

OK, I will have a look at it.

As your hint, I found an issue in f2fs_write_inode which may be related to

IOW, write_inode or any other functions can update node pages during checkpoint,
and then f2fs will flush them after checkpoint.
