The commit e804861bd4e6 ("btrfs: fix deadlock between quota disable and
qgroup rescan worker") by Kawasaki resolves deadlock between quota
disable and qgroup rescan worker. But also there is a deadlock case like
it. It's about enabling or disabling quota and creating or removing
qgroup. It can be reproduced in simple script below.
for i in {1..100}
do
btrfs quota enable /mnt &
btrfs qgroup create 1/0 /mnt &
btrfs qgroup destroy 1/0 /mnt &
btrfs quota disable /mnt &
done
Here's why the deadlock happens:
1) The quota rescan task is running.
2) Task A calls btrfs_quota_disable(), locks the qgroup_ioctl_lock
mutex, and then calls btrfs_qgroup_wait_for_completion(), to wait for
the quota rescan task to complete.
3) Task B calls btrfs_remove_qgroup() and it blocks when trying to lock
the qgroup_ioctl_lock mutex, because it's being held by task A. At that
point task B is holding a transaction handle for the current transaction.
4) The quota rescan task calls btrfs_commit_transaction(). This results
in it waiting for all other tasks to release their handles on the
transaction, but task B is blocked on the qgroup_ioctl_lock mutex
while holding a handle on the transaction, and that mutex is being held
by task A, which is waiting for the quota rescan task to complete,
resulting in a deadlock between these 3 tasks.
To resolve this issue, the thread disabling quota should unlock
qgroup_ioctl_lock before waiting rescan completion. Move
btrfs_qgroup_wait_for_completion() after unlock of qgroup_ioctl_lock.
