[Bug 1598285] Re: possible deadlock while using the cgroup freezer on a container with NFS-based workload

2016-07-06 Thread Seth Forshee
I've sent an inquiry to the upstream maintainers for assistance. I've
also taken a stab at a fix, which I think should prevent the hang, but
I'm not sure whether or not it might cause other problems. The patch and
test build are here:

http://people.canonical.com/~sforshee/lp1598285/

I've currently got a setup running trying to reproduce the bug, once
I've confirmed I've reproduced it I can test my fix.

[Bug 1598285] Re: possible deadlock while using the cgroup freezer on a container with NFS-based workload

2016-07-01 Thread Seth Forshee
We have two processes hung, seemingly waiting on i_mutex, pids 20035 and
20036. Pid 20032 is frozen with the following stack trace:

[] __refrigerator+0x7a/0x140
[] nfs4_handle_exception+0x118/0x130 [nfsv4]
[] nfs4_proc_remove+0x7d/0xf0 [nfsv4]
[] nfs_unlink+0x149/0x350 [nfs]
[] vfs_unlink+0xf1/0x1a0
[] do_unlinkat+0x279/0x2d0
[] SyS_unlink+0x16/0x20
[] entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x16/0x71
[] 0x

which is suspicious. All three processes are from iozone.
