Perhaps breaking the fs_reclaim pseudo lock into a per filesystem lock may fix the issue. However, that will greatly complicate the logic and may not be worth it. Another way to fix it is to disable the taking of the fs_reclaim pseudo lock when in the freezing code path as a reclaim on the freezed filesystem is not possible. By using the newly introduced PF_MEMALLOC_NOLOCKDEP flag, lockdep checking is disabled in xfs_trans_alloc() if XFS_TRANS_NO_WRITECOUNT flag is set. In the freezing path, there is another path where memory allocation is being done without the XFS_TRANS_NO_WRITECOUNT flag: xfs_fs_freeze() => xfs_quiesce_attr() => xfs_log_quiesce() => xfs_log_unmount_write() => xlog_unmount_write() => xfs_log_reserve() => xlog_ticket_alloc() In this case, we just disable fs reclaim for this particular 600 bytes memory allocation. Without this patch, the command sequence below will show that the lock dependency chain sb_internal -> fs_reclaim exists. # fsfreeze -f /home # fsfreeze --unfreeze /home # grep -i fs_reclaim -C 3 /proc/lockdep_chains | grep -C 5 sb_internal After applying the patch, such sb_internal -> fs_reclaim lock dependency chain can no longer be found. Because of that, the locking dependency warning will not be shown.
