When send process requires memory allocation, shrinker may be triggered
due to insufficient memory.
Then evict_inode gets called when inode is freed, and this function
may need to start transaction.
However, the journal_info is already points to BTRFS_SEND_TRANS_STUB, it
passed the if condition,
and the following use yields illegal memory access.
if (current->journal_info) {
WARN_ON(type & TRANS_EXTWRITERS);
h = current->journal_info;
refcount_inc(&h->use_count);
WARN_ON(refcount_read(&h->use_count) > 2);
h->orig_rsv = h->block_rsv;
h->block_rsv = NULL;
goto got_it;
}
Direct IO has a similar problem, journal_info will store btrfs_dio_data,
which will lead to illegal memory access.
We fixed the problem by save the journal_info and restore afterwards.
CallTrace looks like this:
