[LU-3224] GPF in dput()/d_kill(), in "ldlm_bl_xx" command, while umount command is running

• Type: Bug
• Resolution: Cannot Reproduce
• Priority: Major
• Affects Version/s: Lustre 2.1.3
• Severity: 3
• Assignee: Bruno Faccini (Inactive)
• Reporter: Patrick Valentin (Inactive)

Description

The support team reported the following GPF on a lustre 2.1.3 client, on the CEA demonstrator cluster.
They analysed the dump and it shows a race condition between shrink_dcache_for_umount_subtree(), call by umount command, and dput()/d_kill(), called by ldlm_bl_xx cmd.

Below are their debug traces and comments

-------------------------------

On the demonstrateur cluster, we have meet a crash of a lustre client and my analyze could be demonstrate that there are a ""race"" on the dentry shrink process during umount :

Race condition between shrink_dcache_for_umount_subtree()(umount) and dput()/d_kill() (ldlm_bl)

general_protection on d_kill on because LIST_POISON1 on RDX

On THIS dentry.d-u pointer, now, the "poison" pointer has desapear and now this dentry is on the RCU list to be freed on the next quiesed period.
So there are an another thread who have manipulate this dentry during the same time :

The two dentry have the same d_parent, so it's possible to say that the function shrink_dcache_for_umount_subtree() have finish its jobs on the dentry ffff8805d305a180 that ll_drop_dentry() try to remove/drop.

If two functions can be remove a same dentry in the same time, we can say that there are a race between the two function ...
