If we try to allocate memory pages to back an xfs_buf that we're trying to read, it's possible that we'll be so short on memory that the page allocation fails. For a blocking read we'll just wait, but for readahead we simply dump all the pages we've collected so far. Unfortunately, after dumping the pages we neglect to clear the _XBF_PAGES state, which means that the subsequent call to xfs_buf_free thinks that b_pages still points to pages we own. It then double-frees the b_pages pages. This results in screaming about negative page refcounts from the memory manager, which xfs oughtn't be triggering. To reproduce this case, mount a filesystem where the size of the inodes far outweighs the availalble memory (a ~500M inode filesystem on a VM with 300MB memory did the trick here) and run bulkstat in parallel with other memory eating processes to put a huge load on the system. The "check summary" phase of xfs_scrub also works for this purpose. Signed-off-by: NDarrick J. Wong <darrick.wong@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: NEric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com>
