There are situations where fuse servers can become unresponsive or
stuck, for example if the server is deadlocked. Currently, there's no
good way to detect if a server is stuck and needs to be killed manually.

This commit adds an option for enforcing a timeout (in seconds) for
requests where if the timeout elapses without the server responding to
the request, the connection will be automatically aborted.

Please note that these timeouts are not 100% precise. For example, the
request may take roughly an extra FUSE_TIMEOUT_TIMER_FREQ seconds beyond
the requested timeout due to internal implementation, in order to
mitigate overhead.

A nit: you can factor these out into a small helper

static bool request_expired(struct fuse_conn *fc, struct list_head *list)
{
       struct fuse_req *req;

       req = list_first_entry_or_null(list, struct fuse_req, list);
       if (!req)
               return false;
       return time_after(jiffies, req->create_time + fuse_watchdog_timeout());
}

and just call it passing the corresponding list pointer

	abort = request_expired(fc, &fiq->pending);

kinda makes the function look less busy.

When fuse_abort_conn() is called not from fuse_check_timeout(), but from
somewhere else, should this use cancel_delayed_work_sync()?

As Sergey pointed out, this should be a cancel_delayed_work_sync(). The
workqueue job can still be running after cancel_delayed_work(), and
since it requeues itself, this might not be enough to kill it
completely.

Also, I'd probably do this at the start of fuse_abort_conn() instead of
waiting until the end. By the time you're in that function, you're
killing the connection anyway, and you probably don't want the
workqueue job running at the same time. They'll just end up competing
for the same locks.

My worry here is that fuse_abort_conn() can also be called from the
deferred work handler, I'm not sure if we can cancel_delayed_work_sync()
from within the same WQ context, sounds deadlock-ish:

WQ -> fuse_check_timeout() -> fuse_abort_conn() -> cancel_delayed_work_sync()

When fuse_abort_conn() is called from somewhere else (umount, etc.) then
we can safely sync(), but fuse_check_timeout() is different.

Maybe fuse_abort_conn() can become __fuse_abort_conn(), which
fuse_check_timeout() will call directly, for the rest fuse_abort_conn()
can be something like:

	static void __fuse_abort_conn()
	{
		....
	}

	void fuse_abort_conn()
	{
		cancel_delayed_work_sync()
		__fuse_abort_conn();
	}

That seems like a reasonable solution. It already doesn't requeue the
job when calling fuse_abort_conn(), so that should work.

I'm not sure this is going to work either.
What happens if say fuse_check_timeout() is running and is about to
requeue the work and
at the same time umount->fuse_abort_conn->cancel_delayed_work_sync() comes.
The cancel will correctly wait for the actual work to finish but won't
prevent it from getting
queued again no?
thanks,
Etienne

Can fuse_dev_release() run concurrently to this path here?
If yes say fuse_dev_release() comes in first, grab the fpq->lock and
splice the
fpq->processing[i] list into &to_end and release the fpq->lock which
unblock this
path.

Then here we start checking req off the fpq->processing[i] list which is
getting evicted on the other side by fuse_dev_release->end_requests(&to_end);

Maybe we need a cancel_delayed_work_sync() at the beginning of
fuse_dev_release ?
Thanks

Good point.  Perhaps a flag to make en-queueing conditional then, which
will be set/cleared before cancel_delayed_work_sync()?

I don't think we need to synchronously cancel it when a connection is
aborted. The fuse_check_timeout() workqueue job can be simultaneously
running when cancel_delayed_work() is called and can requeue itself,
but then on the next trigger of the job, it will check whether the
connection was aborted (eg the if (!fc->connected)... return; lines in
fuse_check_timeout()) and will not requeue itself if the connection
was aborted. This seemed like the simplest / cleanest approach to me.

Sounds good, I'll move this to be called right after the "if
(fc->connected)" line.

Is there a scenario where the next trigger of the job dereference
struct fuse_conn *fc which already got freed because say the FUSE
server has terminated?

Yes, fuse_dev_release() can run concurrently to this path here. If
fuse_dev_release() comes in first, grabs the fpq->lock and splices the
fpq->processing[i] lists into &to_end, then releases the fpq->lock,
and then this fuse_check_timeout() grabs the fpq->lock, it'll see no
requests on the fpq->processing[i] lists. When the requests are
spliced onto the to_end list in fuse_dev_release(), they are removed
from the &fpq->processing[i] list.

For that reason I don't think we need a cancel_delayed_work_sync() at
the beginning of fuse_dev_release(), but also a connection can have
multiple devs associated with it and the workqueue job is
per-connection and not per-device.

This isn't possible because the struct fuse_conn *fc gets freed only
after the call to "cancel_delayed_work_sync(&fc->timeout.work);" that
synchronously cancels the workqueue job. This happens in the
fuse_conn_put() function.

Good idea! I'll do this refactoring as part of v11.

I left a comment about this under the reply to Jeff.

Yes, good point about list splice. After all, I realized that the same
locking sequence is present in fuse_abort_conn() which is proven to
work. ( otherwise we would have heard about race issues coming from
fuse_dev_release() against concurrent fuse_conn_abort_write() )

Ok got it.

cancel_delayed_work_sync() won't prevent the work from re-queuing
itself if it's already running.
I think we need some flag like Sergey pointed out here
  https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/CAMHPp_S2ANAguT6fYfNcXjTZxU14nh2Zv=5=8dG8qUnD3F8e7A@mail.gmail.com/T/#m543550031f31a9210996ccf815d5bc2a4290f540
Maybe we don't requeue when fc->count becomes 0?

The connection will have been aborted when cancel_delayed_work_sync()
is called (otherwise we will have a lot of memory crashes/leaks). If
the fuse_check_timeout() workqueue job is running while
cancel_delayed_work_sync() is called, there's the "if (!fc->connected)
{ ... return; }" path that returns and avoids requeueing.

I ran some tests and from what I see, calling
cancel_delayed_work_sync() on a workqueue that is currently running
and re-queueing itself is enough to kill it completely. For that
reason I believe we don't even need the cancel_delayed_work() in
fuse_abort_conn() because everything is taken care of by
fuse_conn_put();

I think the cancel_delayed_work() in fuse_abort_conn() would still be
good to have. There are some instances where the connection gets
aborted but the connection doesn't get freed (eg user forgets to
unmount the fuse filesystem or the unmount only happens a lot later).
When the connection is aborted however, this will automatically cancel
the workqueue job on the next run (on the next run, the job won't
requeue itself if it sees that the connection was aborted) so we
technically don't need the cancel_delayed_work() because of this, but
imo it'd be good to minimize the number of workqueue jobs that get run
and canceling it asap is preferable.

Ok, it makes sense.
Also in fuse_check_timeout() does it make sense to leverage
fc->num_waiting to save some cycle in the function?
Something like:

diff --git a/fs/fuse/dev.c b/fs/fuse/dev.c

I like this idea and it makes sense to me. I think "fc->num_waiting"
needs to be atomically read though, which doesn't depend on holding
the fc lock, so we could do this check at the top of the function
before grabbing the fiq lock and checking any expirations. I'll
incorporate this into v11.

Also btw, I think cancel_delayed_work_sync() does actually prevent the
work from re-queuing itself if it's already running. The api comment
(in kernel/workqueue.c) says:

* Cancel @work and wait for its execution to finish. This function can be used
* even if the work re-queues itself or migrates to another workqueue. On return
* from this function, @work is guaranteed to be not pending or executing on any
* CPU as long as there aren't racing enqueues.
