Subject: [PATCH 6/8] Btrfs: only associate the locked page with one async_cow struct
Date: Thu, 13 Jun 2019 17:33:48 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190614003350.1178444-7-tj@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190614003350.1178444-1-tj@kernel.org>

From: Chris Mason <clm@fb.com>

The btrfs writepages function collects a large range of pages flagged
for delayed allocation, and then sends them down through the COW code
for processing.  When compression is on, we allocate one async_cow
structure for every 512K, and then run those pages through the
compression code for IO submission.

writepages starts all of this off with a single page, locked by
the original call to extent_write_cache_pages(), and it's important to
keep track of this page because it has already been through
clear_page_dirty_for_io().

The btrfs async_cow struct has a pointer to the locked_page, and when
we're redirtying the page because compression had to fallback to
uncompressed IO, we use page->index to decide if a given async_cow
struct really owns that page.

But, this is racey.  If a given delalloc range is broken up into two
async_cows (cow_A and cow_B), we can end up with something like this:

compress_file_range(cowA)
submit_compress_extents(cowA)
submit compressed bios(cowA)
put_page(locked_page)

				compress_file_range(cowB)
				...

The end result is that cowA is completed and cleaned up before cowB even
starts processing.  This means we can free locked_page() and reuse it
elsewhere.  If we get really lucky, it'll have the same page->index in
its new home as it did before.

While we're processing cowB, we might decide we need to fall back to
uncompressed IO, and so compress_file_range() will call
__set_page_dirty_nobufers() on cowB->locked_page.

Without cgroups in use, this creates as a phantom dirty page, which
isn't great but isn't the end of the world.  With cgroups in use, we
might crash in the accounting code because page->mapping->i_wb isn't
set.

The fix here is to make asyc_cow->locked_page NULL everywhere but the
one async_cow struct that's allowed to do things to the locked page.
