    xfs: fix buffer shudown reference count mismatch · 137fff09
    Dave Chinner 提交于
    When we shut down the filesystem, we have to unpin and free all the
    buffers currently active in the CIL. To do this we unpin and remove
    them in one operation as a result of a failed iclogbuf write. For
    buffers, we do this removal via a simultated IO completion of after
    marking the buffer stale.
    
    At the time we do this, we have two references to the buffer - the
    active LRU reference and the buf log item.  The LRU reference is
    removed by marking the buffer stale, and the active CIL reference is
    by the xfs_buf_iodone() callback that is run by
    xfs_buf_do_callbacks() during ioend processing (via the bp->b_iodone
    callback).
    
    However, ioend processing requires one more reference - that of the
    IO that it is completing. We don't have this reference, so we free
    the buffer prematurely and use it after it is freed. For buffers
    marked with XBF_ASYNC, this leads to assert failures in
    xfs_buf_rele() on debug kernels because the b_hold count is zero.
    
    Fix this by making sure we take the necessary IO reference before
    starting IO completion processing on the stale buffer, and set the
    XBF_ASYNC flag to ensure that IO completion processing removes all
    the active references from the buffer to ensure it is fully torn
    down.
