4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Brian Foster <bfos...@redhat.com> commit 63db7c815bc0997c29e484d2409684fdd9fcd93b upstream. We've had user reports of unmount hangs in xfs_wait_buftarg() that analysis shows is due to btp->bt_io_count == -1. bt_io_count represents the count of in-flight asynchronous buffers and thus should always be >= 0. xfs_wait_buftarg() waits for this value to stabilize to zero in order to ensure that all untracked (with respect to the lru) buffers have completed I/O processing before unmount proceeds to tear down in-core data structures. The value of -1 implies an I/O accounting decrement race. Indeed, the fact that xfs_buf_ioacct_dec() is called from xfs_buf_rele() (where the buffer lock is no longer held) means that bp->b_flags can be updated from an unsafe context. While a user-level reproducer is currently not available, some intrusive hacks to run racing buffer lookups/ioacct/releases from multiple threads was used to successfully manufacture this problem. Existing callers do not expect to acquire the buffer lock from xfs_buf_rele(). Therefore, we can not safely update ->b_flags from this context. It turns out that we already have separate buffer state bits and associated serialization for dealing with buffer LRU state in the form of ->b_state and ->b_lock. Therefore, replace the _XBF_IN_FLIGHT flag with a ->b_state variant, update the I/O accounting wrappers appropriately and make sure they are used with the correct locking. This ensures that buffer in-flight state can be modified at buffer release time without racing with modifications from a buffer lock holder.
