Hi,

When journal flushing in ocfs2_commit_cache() fails, following umount procedure at stage of shutting journal may be blocked due to non-zero transactions number.

Once jbd2_journal_flush() fails, the journal will be marked as ABORT state inner JBD2. There is no way to come back afterwards.

So there is no chance to set transactions number to zero, thus, shutting journal may be blocked .


ocfs2_commit_thread()

    ocfs2_commit_cache()

        jbd2_journal_flush() -> failure takes journal into ABORT state, thus, transaction number will never set to zero


The back trace is cited blow:

[<ffffffff8109de0c>] kthread_stop+0x4c/0x150
[<ffffffffc056a887>] ocfs2_journal_shutdown+0xa7/0x400 [ocfs2]

[<ffffffff817f8384>] int_signal+0x12/0x17
[<ffffffffffffffff>] 0xffffffffffffffff

Through crash debug tool, It can seen that j_num_trans field is set to 2.

struct ocfs2_journal {
  j_state = OCFS2_JOURNAL_IN_SHUTDOWN,
  j_journal = 0xffff8800b4926000,
  j_inode = 0xffff880122aba298,
  j_osb = 0xffff880093caa000,
  j_bh = 0xffff8800a09df888,
  j_num_trans = {
    counter = 0x2
  },
  j_lock = {
    {
      rlock = {
        raw_lock = {
          {


To solve this issue, I propose a patch. Any comments will be welcomed.

Since journal has been marked as ABORT and flushing journal failure will free all corresponding buffer heads, it will be safe to directly set transactions number to zero.

This seems a little hacky, but I'll let the ocfs2 developers decide.

I do think there should be a code comment here, telling readers why
this operation is being performed.
Joseph Qi Jan. 10, 2017, 6:17 a.m. UTC | #2
According to the call trace, umount hangs because ocfs2_commit_thread
can't exit. So I think we'd better put the logic into ocfs2_commit_thread,
which can be align with kthread_should_stop to identify the case.

Thanks,
Joseph

Hi Joseph,

Thanks for your comments and I indeed agree with that.

I will send another improved version of patch later.
