Subject: ocfs2/dlm: drain join handlers before releasing module text
Date: Thu, 22 Oct 2026 17:09:10 +0800

The code for a registered DLM handler must remain resident until its
last invocation finishes. dlm_unregister_net_handlers() only removes
dlm_join_handlers from the o2net registry. o2net_handler_get() takes a
kref on the wrapper, but that reference does not pin ocfs2_dlm text.
o2net_process_message() calls nh_func after dropping o2net_handler_lock.

With CONFIG_OCFS2_FS_O2CB=m, ocfs2_dlm can be loaded independently of
ocfs2_stack_o2cb while nodemanager continues handling messages from a
configured, heartbeating peer. If no dependent module or module reference
prevents normal unload, the following ordering is possible:

  Receive worker                       Module unload
  --------------                       -------------
  o2net_handler_get()
    take wrapper kref
    drop handler lock
  <preempted>
                                       dlm_exit()
                                         unregister handlers
                                       release DLM module text
  call saved nh_func
    in released module text

Use o2net_unregister_and_flush_handler_list() in the shared DLM
unregister helper. It first prevents new lookups, then waits for the
ordered o2net workqueue to drain, including a concurrent destruction of
that queue. The acquired invocation therefore finishes before dlm_exit()
returns and the loader releases the callback code. The same helper
covers partial registration and dlm_init() error unwind before module
memory is released.

Skip the drain when the private join-handler list is empty. Early
dlm_init() failures can reach this helper before any handler has been
published. Partial-registration failure also reaches it a second time
after the first call has already unregistered and drained the list.
Neither case needs to take o2net_wq_mutex or drain unrelated work.
The list is changed only by serialized module init/exit paths; a
nonempty list still uses the full unregister-and-flush helper.
