From 93314e3b64fd2e77237fdba7cfcc0d38dcd05579 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Zhaolei Date: Thu, 6 Aug 2015 21:56:58 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: abort transaction on btrfs_reloc_cow_block() When btrfs_reloc_cow_block() failed in __btrfs_cow_block(), current code just return a err-value to caller, but leave new_created extent buffer exist and locked. Then subsequent code (in relocate) try to lock above eb again, and caused deadlock without any dmesg. (eb lock use wait_event(), so no lockdep message) It is hard to do recover work in __btrfs_cow_block() at this error point, but we can abort transaction to avoid deadlock and operate on unstable state.a It also helps developer to find wrong place quickly. (better than a frozen fs without any dmesg before patch) Signed-off-by: Zhao Lei Signed-off-by: Chris Mason --- Reading git-format-patch failed
