Then, the recovery procedure can never make progress to recover the failed disk or abort outstanding IO operations to complete the reclaim (since rx_queue_mutex is locked), thus locking the system. Nevertheless, just marking all allocations under rx_queue_mutex as GFP_NOIO (or locking the userspace process with something like PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO) is not enough, since the iscsi command code relies on other subsystems that try to grab locked mutexes, whose threads are GFP_IO, leading to the same deadlock. One instance where this situation can be observed is in the backtraces below, stitched from multiple bugs reports, involving the kobj uevent sent when a session is created. The root of the problem is not the fact that iscsi does GFP_IO allocations, that is acceptable. The actual problem is that rx_queue_mutex has a very large granularity, covering every unrelated netlink command execution at the same time as the error recovery path. The proposed fix leverages the recently added mechanism to stop failed connections from the kernel, by enabling it to execute even though a management command from the netlink socket is being run (rx_queue_mutex is held), provided that the command is known to be safe. It splits the rx_queue_mutex in two mutexes, one protecting from concurrent command execution from the netlink socket, and one protecting stop_conn from racing with other connection management operations that might conflict with it. It is not very pretty, but it is the simplest way to resolve the deadlock. I considered making it a lock per connection, but some external mutex would still be needed to deal with iscsi_if_destroy_conn. The patch was tested by forcing a memory shrinker (unrelated, but used bufio/dm-verity) to reclaim ISCSI pages every time ISCSI_UEVENT_CREATE_SESSION happens, which is reasonable to simulate reclaims that might happen with GFP_KERNEL on that path. Then, a faulty hung target causes a connection to fail during intensive IO, at the same time a new session is added by iscsid. The following stacktraces are stiches from several bug reports, showing a case where the deadlock can happen. iSCSI-write holding: rx_queue_mutex waiting: uevent_sock_mutex kobject_uevent_env+0x1bd/0x419 kobject_uevent+0xb/0xd device_add+0x48a/0x678 scsi_add_host_with_dma+0xc5/0x22d iscsi_host_add+0x53/0x55 iscsi_sw_tcp_session_create+0xa6/0x129 iscsi_if_rx+0x100/0x1247 netlink_unicast+0x213/0x4f0 netlink_sendmsg+0x230/0x3c0 iscsi_fail iscsi_conn_failure waiting: rx_queue_mutex schedule_preempt_disabled+0x325/0x734 __mutex_lock_slowpath+0x18b/0x230 mutex_lock+0x22/0x40 iscsi_conn_failure+0x42/0x149 worker_thread+0x24a/0xbc0 EventManager_ holding: uevent_sock_mutex waiting: dm_bufio_client->lock dm_bufio_lock+0xe/0x10 shrink+0x34/0xf7 shrink_slab+0x177/0x5d0 do_try_to_free_pages+0x129/0x470 try_to_free_mem_cgroup_pages+0x14f/0x210 memcg_kmem_newpage_charge+0xa6d/0x13b0 __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x4a3/0x1a70 fallback_alloc+0x1b2/0x36c __kmalloc_node_track_caller+0xb9/0x10d0 __alloc_skb+0x83/0x2f0 kobject_uevent_env+0x26b/0x419 dm_kobject_uevent+0x70/0x79 dev_suspend+0x1a9/0x1e7 ctl_ioctl+0x3e9/0x411 dm_ctl_ioctl+0x13/0x17 do_vfs_ioctl+0xb3/0x460 SyS_ioctl+0x5e/0x90 MemcgReclaimerD" holding: dm_bufio_client->lock waiting: stuck io to finish (needs iscsi_fail thread to progress) schedule at ffffffffbd603618 io_schedule at ffffffffbd603ba4 do_io_schedule at ffffffffbdaf0d94 __wait_on_bit at ffffffffbd6008a6 out_of_line_wait_on_bit at ffffffffbd600960 wait_on_bit.constprop.10 at ffffffffbdaf0f17 __make_buffer_clean at ffffffffbdaf18ba __cleanup_old_buffer at ffffffffbdaf192f shrink at ffffffffbdaf19fd do_shrink_slab at ffffffffbd6ec000 shrink_slab at ffffffffbd6ec24a do_try_to_free_pages at ffffffffbd6eda09 try_to_free_mem_cgroup_pages at ffffffffbd6ede7e mem_cgroup_resize_limit at ffffffffbd7024c0 mem_cgroup_write at ffffffffbd703149 cgroup_file_write at ffffffffbd6d9c6e sys_write at ffffffffbd6662ea system_call_fastpath at ffffffffbdbc34a2 Reported-by: Khazhismel Kumykov Signed-off-by: Gabriel Krisman Bertazi Reviewed-by: Lee Duncan --- drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_iscsi.c | 67 +++++++++++++++++++++-------- 1 file changed, 49 insertions(+), 18 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_iscsi.c b/drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_iscsi.c index 17a45716a0fe..d99c17306dff 100644 --- a/drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_iscsi.c +++ b/drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_iscsi.c @@ -1616,6 +1616,12 @@ static DECLARE_TRANSPORT_CLASS(iscsi_connection_class, static struct sock *nls; static DEFINE_MUTEX(rx_queue_mutex); +/* + * conn_mutex protects the {start,bind,stop,destroy}_conn from racing + * against the kernel stop_connection recovery mechanism + */ +static DEFINE_MUTEX(conn_mutex); + static LIST_HEAD(sesslist); static LIST_HEAD(sessdestroylist); static DEFINE_SPINLOCK(sesslock); @@ -2442,6 +2448,32 @@ int iscsi_offload_mesg(struct Scsi_Host *shost, } EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(iscsi_offload_mesg); +/* + * This can be called without the rx_queue_mutex, if invoked by the kernel + * stop work.
