[PATCH 5.18 049/879] btrfs: fix deadlock between concurrent dio writes when low on free data space

From: Filipe Manana <fdmanana@suse.com>

commit f5585f4f0ef5b17026bbd60fbff6fcc91b99d5bf upstream.

When reserving data space for a direct IO write we can end up deadlocking
if we have multiple tasks attempting a write to the same file range, there
are multiple extents covered by that file range, we are low on available
space for data and the writes don't expand the inode's i_size.

The deadlock can happen like this:

1) We have a file with an i_size of 1M, at offset 0 it has an extent with
a size of 128K and at offset 128K it has another extent also with a
size of 128K;

2) Task A does a direct IO write against file range [0, 256K), and because
the write is within the i_size boundary, it takes the inode's lock (VFS
level) in shared mode;

3) Task A locks the file range [0, 256K) at btrfs_dio_iomap_begin(), and
then gets the extent map for the extent covering the range [0, 128K).
At btrfs_get_blocks_direct_write(), it creates an ordered extent for
that file range ([0, 128K));

4) Before returning from btrfs_dio_iomap_begin(), it unlocks the file
range [0, 256K);

5) Task A executes btrfs_dio_iomap_begin() again, this time for the file
range [128K, 256K), and locks the file range [128K, 256K);

6) Task B starts a direct IO write against file range [0, 256K) as well.
It also locks the inode in shared mode, as it's within the i_size limit,
and then tries to lock file range [0, 256K). It is able to lock the
subrange [0, 128K) but then blocks waiting for the range [128K, 256K),
as it is currently locked by task A;

7) Task A enters btrfs_get_blocks_direct_write() and tries to reserve data
space. Because we are low on available free space, it triggers the
async data reclaim task, and waits for it to reserve data space;

8) The async reclaim task decides to wait for all existing ordered extents
to complete (through btrfs_wait_ordered_roots()).
It finds the ordered extent previously created by task A for the file
range [0, 128K) and waits for it to complete;

9) The ordered extent for the file range [0, 128K) can not complete
because it blocks at btrfs_finish_ordered_io() when trying to lock the
file range [0, 128K).

This results in a deadlock, because:

- task B is holding the file range [0, 128K) locked, waiting for the
range [128K, 256K) to be unlocked by task A;

- task A is holding the file range [128K, 256K) locked and it's waiting
for the async data reclaim task to satisfy its space reservation
request;

- the async data reclaim task is waiting for ordered extent [0, 128K)
to complete, but the ordered extent can not complete because the
file range [0, 128K) is currently locked by task B, which is waiting
on task A to unlock file range [128K, 256K) and task A waiting
on the async data reclaim task.

This results in a deadlock between 4 task: task A, task B, the async
data reclaim task and the task doing ordered extent completion (a work
queue task).

This type of deadlock can sporadically be triggered by the test case
generic/300 from fstests, and results in a stack trace like the following:

Fix this issue by always reserving data space before locking a file range
at btrfs_dio_iomap_begin(). If we can't reserve the space, then we don't
error out immediately - instead after locking the file range, check if we
can do a NOCOW write, and if we can we don't error out since we don't need
to allocate a data extent, however if we can't NOCOW then error out with
-ENOSPC. This also implies that we may end up reserving space when it's
not needed because the write will end up being done in NOCOW mode - in that
case we just release the space after we noticed we did a NOCOW write - this
is the same type of logic that is done in the path for buffered IO writes.
