struct super_operations {
Before [1] freezing a filesystems through the block layer only worked for the main block device as the owning superblock of additional block devices could not be found. Any filesystem that made use of multiple block devices would only be freezable via it's main block device. For example, consider xfs over device mapper with /dev/dm-0 as main block device and /dev/dm-1 as external log device. Two freeze requests before [1]: (1) dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-0 on the main block device bdev_freeze(dm-0) -> dm-0->bd_fsfreeze_count++ -> freeze_super(xfs-sb) The owning superblock is found and the filesystem gets frozen. Returns 0. (2) dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-1 on the log device bdev_freeze(dm-1) -> dm-1->bd_fsfreeze_count++ The owning superblock isn't found and only the block device freeze count is incremented. Returns 0. Two freeze requests after [1]: (1') dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-0 on the main block device bdev_freeze(dm-0) -> dm-0->bd_fsfreeze_count++ -> freeze_super(xfs-sb) The owning superblock is found and the filesystem gets frozen. Returns 0. (2') dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-1 on the log device bdev_freeze(dm-0) -> dm-0->bd_fsfreeze_count++ -> freeze_super(xfs-sb) The owning superblock is found and the filesystem gets frozen. Returns -EBUSY. When (2') is called we initiate a freeze from another block device of the same superblock. So we increment the bd_fsfreeze_count for that additional block device. But we now also find the owning superblock for additional block devices and call freeze_super() again which reports -EBUSY. This can be reproduced through xfstests via: mkfs.xfs -f -m crc=1,reflink=1,rmapbt=1, -i sparse=1 -lsize=1g,logdev=/dev/nvme1n1p4 /dev/nvme1n1p3 mkfs.xfs -f -m crc=1,reflink=1,rmapbt=1, -i sparse=1 -lsize=1g,logdev=/dev/nvme1n1p6 /dev/nvme1n1p5 FSTYP=xfs export TEST_DEV=/dev/nvme1n1p3 export TEST_DIR=/mnt/test export TEST_LOGDEV=/dev/nvme1n1p4 export SCRATCH_DEV=/dev/nvme1n1p5 export SCRATCH_MNT=/mnt/scratch export SCRATCH_LOGDEV=/dev/nvme1n1p6 export USE_EXTERNAL=yes sudo ./check generic/311 Current semantics allow two concurrent freezers: one initiated from userspace via FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE and one initiated from the kernel via FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL. If there are multiple concurrent freeze requests from either FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE or FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL -EBUSY is returned. We need to preserve these semantics because as they are uapi via FIFREEZE and FITHAW ioctl()s. IOW, freezes don't nest for FIFREEZE and FITHAW. Other kernels consumers rely on non-nesting freezes as well. With freezes initiated from the block layer freezes need to nest if the same superblock is frozen via multiple devices. So we need to start counting the number of freeze requests. If FREEZE_HOLDER_BDEV is passed alongside FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL or FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE we allow the caller to nest freeze calls. To accommodate the old semantics we split the freeze counter into two counting kernel initiated and userspace initiated freezes separately. We can then also stop recording FREEZE_HOLDER_* in struct sb_writers. We also simplify freezing by making all concurrent freezers share a single active superblock reference count instead of having separate references for kernel and userspace. I don't see why we would need two active reference counts. Neither FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL nor FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE can put the active reference as long as they are concurrent freezers anwyay. That was already true before we allowed nesting freezes. Survives various fstests runs with different options including the reproducer, online scrub, and online repair, fsfreze, and so on. Also survives blktests.
