    xfs: drop buffer io reference when a bad bio is built · d69043c4
    Dave Chinner 提交于
    Error handling in xfs_buf_ioapply_map() does not handle IO reference
    counts correctly. We increment the b_io_remaining count before
    building the bio, but then fail to decrement it in the failure case.
    This leads to the buffer never running IO completion and releasing
    the reference that the IO holds, so at unmount we can leak the
    buffer. This leak is captured by this assert failure during unmount:
    
    XFS: Assertion failed: atomic_read(&pag->pag_ref) == 0, file: fs/xfs/xfs_mount.c, line: 273
    
    This is not a new bug - the b_io_remaining accounting has had this
    problem for a long, long time - it's just very hard to get a
    zero length bio being built by this code...
    
    Further, the buffer IO error can be overwritten on a multi-segment
    buffer by subsequent bio completions for partial sections of the
    buffer. Hence we should only set the buffer error status if the
    buffer is not already carrying an error status. This ensures that a
    partial IO error on a multi-segment buffer will not be lost. This
    part of the problem is a regression, however.
