I encountered below deadlock when running fsstress
wmtruncate work truncate MDS
--------------- ------------------ --------------------------
lock i_mutex
<- truncate file
lock i_mutex (blocked)
<- revoking Fcb (filelock to MIX)
send request ->
handle request (xlock filelock)
At the initial time, there are some dirty pages in the page cache.
When the kclient receives the truncate message, it reduces inode size
and creates some 'out of i_size' dirty pages. wmtruncate work can't
truncate these dirty pages because it's blocked by the i_mutex. Later
when the kclient receives the cap message that revokes Fcb caps, It
can't flush all dirty pages because writepages() only flushes dirty
pages within the inode size.
When the MDS handles the 'truncate' request from kclient, it waits
for the filelock to become stable. But the filelock is stuck in
unstable state because it can't finish revoking kclient's Fcb caps.
The truncate pagecache locking has already caused lots of trouble
for use. I think it's time simplify it by introducing a new mutex.
We use the new mutex to prevent concurrent truncate_inode_pages().
There is no need to worry about race between buffered write and
truncate_inode_pages(), because our "get caps" mechanism prevents
them from concurrent execution.
