>From this warning, freeze_super() already holds SB_FREEZE_FS, but btrfs_freeze() will call btrfs_commit_transaction() again, if btrfs_commit_transaction() finds that it has delayed iputs to handle, it'll start_transaction(), which will try to get SB_FREEZE_FS lock again, then deadlock occurs. The root cause is that in btrfs, sync_filesystem(sb) does not make sure all metadata is updated. There still maybe some codes adding delayed iputs, see below sample race window: CPU1 | CPU2 |-> freeze_super() | |-> sync_filesystem(sb); | | |-> cleaner_kthread() | | |-> btrfs_delete_unused_bgs() | | |-> btrfs_remove_chunk() | | |-> btrfs_remove_block_group() | | |-> btrfs_add_delayed_iput() | | |-> sb->s_writers.frozen = SB_FREEZE_FS; | |-> sb_wait_write(sb, SB_FREEZE_FS); | | acquire SB_FREEZE_FS lock. | | | |-> btrfs_freeze() | |-> btrfs_commit_transaction() | |-> btrfs_run_delayed_iputs() | | will handle delayed iputs, | | that means start_transaction() | | will be called, which will try | | to get SB_FREEZE_FS lock. | To fix this issue, introduce a atomic_t fs_frozen to record internally whether fs has been frozen. If fs has been frozen, we can not handle delayed iputs.
