kthread_stop() frees the task_struct, but we might still try to wake up
the cleaner kthread from somewhere (e.g., from the transaction kthread).
So we really need to keep the cleaner alive but not doing work.

Can't you directly call kthread_stop here? When you park the thread it
will sleep and then when you call kthread_stop that function will unpark
the thread and the cleaner kthread will see KTHREAD_SHOULD_STOP bit and
just return 0. So the from the moment the thread is parked until it's
stopped it doesn't have a chance to do useful work.

As a matter of fact this should have been fixed by :

fe816d0f1d4c ("btrfs: Fix delalloc inodes invalidation during
transaction abort")


Perhaps this commit is not a full fix ?

Are you able to trigger this reliably i.e 100% or just, say, 80-90% of
the time? If it's sporadic (but frequent) then it is likely an issue
with error handling. Also looking at the log I see:

[  367.977998] BTRFS info (device dm-3): at unmount delalloc count 8192

Meaning we are leaking 8k of delalloc space which should have been
cleaned up. And the warn is caused because we have an inode in the inode
rb tree. I will suggest that you patch btrfs_free_fs_root to print the
ino's if root->inode_tree is not empty. That way you can see if the inos
correspond to a data file or a freespace ino. But given btrfs free_fs
also complains of delaloc bytes I'd be willing to say it's data inodes.

Since the assert added via commit e187831e1875 ("btrfs: assert on non-empty
delayed iputs") wasn't triggered, it doesn't seem to be the cause of inode
leak.

I noticed an inode leak issue in generic/475, but whether dropping commit
30928e9baac2 ("btrfs: don't run delayed_iputs in commit") or applying
this patch, the issue still exists.

I have attached the dmesg.

Since we are not going to call kthread_unpark, I am not sure why
kthread_park is used instead of kthread_stop here. It looks like there
is no significant difference between stopping instantly and delayed stop.

[PATCH] Btrfs: fix missing delayed iputs on unmount

2018-10-30 Thread Omar Sandoval
From: Omar Sandoval 

There's a race between close_ctree() and cleaner_kthread().
close_ctree() sets btrfs_fs_closing(), and the cleaner stops when it
sees it set, but this is racy; the cleaner might have already checked
the bit and could be cleaning stuff. In particular, if it deletes unused
block groups, it will create delayed iputs for the free space cache
inodes. As of "btrfs: don't run delayed_iputs in commit", we're no
longer running delayed iputs after a commit. Therefore, if the cleaner
creates more delayed iputs after delayed iputs are run in
btrfs_commit_super(), we will leak inodes on unmount and get a busy
inode crash from the VFS.

Fix it by parking the cleaner before we actually close anything. Then,
any remaining delayed iputs will always be handled in
btrfs_commit_super(). This also ensures that the commit in close_ctree()
is really the last commit, so we can get rid of the commit in
cleaner_kthread().

We found this with a stress test that our containers team runs. I'm
wondering if this same race could have caused any other issues other
than this new iput thing, but I couldn't identify any.
