Hi,

I noticed there appears to be a regression in DLM (fs/dlm/) when
moving from Linux 5.4.229 to 5.4.288; I get a kernel panic when using
dlm_ls_lockx() (DLM user) with a timeout >0, and the panic occurs when
the timeout is reached (eg, attempting to take a lock on a resource
that is already locked); the host where the timeout occurs is the one
that panics:

I examined the commits for fs/dlm/ between 5.4.229 and 5.4.288 and
this is the offender:
dlm: replace usage of found with dedicated list iterator variable
[ Upstream commit dc1acd5c94699389a9ed023e94dd860c846ea1f6 ]

Specifically, the change highlighted below in this hunk for

Reverting this single line change resolves the kernel panic:

It appears this same "dlm: replace usage of found with dedicated list
iterator variable" commit was pulled into other stable branches as
well, and I don't see any fix in the latest 5.4.x patch release
(5.4.290).

What commit needs to be backported to resolve this?

This works, or just init the lkb back to NULL there:

diff --git a/fs/dlm/lock.c b/fs/dlm/lock.c

Can you provide more details about the use case of timeout? Are you
using DLM in user space or kernel?

Yes, using dlm_ls_lockx() from DLM user space library in an
application; it's used to protect a shared resource with an exclusive
lock, so if another node attempts to take that lock and it times out
waiting, then we see the kernel panic.
