Subject: [PATCH V2 2/2] md/raid10: fix missing wakeup in wait_barrier_nolock
Date: Mon, 17 Aug 2026 11:33:40 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260817033340.418119-3-wozizhi@huawei.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260817033340.418119-1-wozizhi@huawei.com>
[BUG]
Recently, our fuzz testing triggered a hungtask issue in RAID10:
INFO: task md0_raid10:1273 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
Not tainted 7.2.0-rc6+ #94
"echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.
task:md0_raid10 state:D stack:0 pid:1273 tgid:1273 ppid:2
Call Trace:
<TASK>
__schedule+0xdf9/0x5c90
? _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore+0xe/0x40

raid10d.cold+0x7db/0x1992
md_thread+0x1ce/0x3e0
kthread+0x327/0x410
......
[CAUSE]
The root cause of the issue is as follows:
[read process1] [read process2] [raid10d]
raid10_make_request
...
// nr_pending == 1
atomic_inc(&conf->nr_pending)
...
raid10_end_read_request
reschedule_retry
md_wakeup_thread(mddev->thread)
raid10_read_request
regular_request_wait
wait_barrier
wait_barrier_nolock
seq = read_seqbegin(&conf->resync_lock)
// nr_pending == 2
atomic_inc(&conf->nr_pending)
raid10d
handle_read_error
freeze_array
write_seqlock_irq(&conf->resync_lock)
conf->array_freeze_pending++
WRITE_ONCE(conf->barrier, conf->barrier + 1)
conf->nr_waiting++
// nr_pending == 2, nr_queued == 0
wait_event_barrier_cmd
write_sequnlock_irq(&(conf)->resync_lock)
schedule // hungtask!!
read_seqretry(&conf->resync_lock, seq)
// not wakeup because conf->nr_pending == 1
atomic_dec_and_test(&conf->nr_pending)
/* Hungtask will also occur here: since the barrier is non-zero,
* this I/O can never complete, so it can't call allow_barrier()
* to wake up the pending freeze_array(). */
wait_event_barrier(conf, stop_waiting_barrier(conf))
wait_barrier_nolock() speculatively increments nr_pending and, on a seqlock
retry, rolls it back with atomic_dec_and_test(). The wake fires only when
nr_pending reaches 0. This causes the freeze_array() in the aforementioned
raid10d flow to never be woken up.
[FIX]
Referring to allow_barrier(), this issue can be fixed by adding a wake-up
condition for "conf->array_freeze_pending" in wait_barrier_nolock().
