Subject: [PATCH 1/4] jbd2/journal_commit_transaction: relocate state lock to incorporate all users
Date: Mon, 10 Jun 2013 15:32:00 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1370892723-30860-2-git-send-email-paul.gortmaker@windriver.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1370892723-30860-1-git-send-email-paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

The state lock is taken after we are doing an assert on the state
value, not before.  It is also taken after the jbd_debug() call.
Noting that jbd_debug() is implemented with two separate printk()
calls, it can lead to corrupted and misleading debug output like
the following (see lines marked with "*"):

[  290.339362] (fs/jbd2/journal.c, 203): kjournald2: kjournald2 wakes
[  290.339365] (fs/jbd2/journal.c, 155): kjournald2: commit_sequence=42103, commit_request=42104
[  290.339369] (fs/jbd2/journal.c, 158): kjournald2: OK, requests differ
[* 290.339376] (fs/jbd2/journal.c, 648): jbd2_log_wait_commit:
[* 290.339379] (fs/jbd2/commit.c, 370): jbd2_journal_commit_transaction: JBD2: want 42104, j_commit_sequence=42103
[* 290.339382] JBD2: starting commit of transaction 42104
[  290.339410] (fs/jbd2/revoke.c, 566): jbd2_journal_write_revoke_records: Wrote 0 revoke records
[  290.376555] (fs/jbd2/commit.c, 1088): jbd2_journal_commit_transaction: JBD2: commit 42104 complete, head 42079

i.e. the debug output from log_wait_commit and journal_commit_transaction
have become interleaved.  The output should have been:

(fs/jbd2/journal.c, 648): jbd2_log_wait_commit: JBD2: want 42104, j_commit_sequence=42103
(fs/jbd2/commit.c, 370): jbd2_journal_commit_transaction: JBD2: starting commit of transaction 42104

It is expected that this is not easy to replicate -- I was only able
to cause it on preempt-rt kernels, and even then only under heavy
I/O load.
