Quoted from Jing Xia's report, there is a potential deadlock may happen
between kworker and checkpoint as below:
[T:writeback] [T:checkpoint]
- wb_writeback
- blk_start_plug
bio contains NodeA was plugged in writeback threads
- do_writepages -- sync write inodeB, inc wb_sync_req[DATA]
- f2fs_write_data_pages
- f2fs_write_single_data_page -- write last dirty page
- f2fs_do_write_data_page
- set_page_writeback -- clear page dirty flag and
PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY tag in radix tree
- f2fs_outplace_write_data
- f2fs_update_data_blkaddr
- f2fs_wait_on_page_writeback -- wait NodeA to writeback here
- inode_dec_dirty_pages
- writeback_sb_inodes
- writeback_single_inode
- do_writepages
- f2fs_write_data_pages -- skip writepages due to wb_sync_req[DATA]
- wbc->pages_skipped += get_dirty_pages() -- PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY is not set but get_dirty_pages() returns one
- requeue_inode -- requeue inode to wb->b_dirty queue due to non-zero.pages_skipped
- blk_finish_plug
Let's try to avoid deadlock condition by forcing unplugging previous bio via
blk_finish_plug(current->plug) once we'v skipped writeback in writepages()
due to valid sbi->wb_sync_req[DATA/NODE].
