xfstests generic/388,475 occasionally reproduce assertion failures in xfs_buf_item_unpin() when the final bli reference is dropped on an invalidated buffer and the buffer is not locked as it is expected to be. Invalidated buffers should remain locked on transaction commit until the final unpin, at which point the buffer is removed from the AIL and the bli is freed since stale buffers are not written back. The assert failures are associated with filesystem shutdown, typically due to log I/O errors injected by the test. The problematic situation can occur if the shutdown happens to cause a race between an active transaction that has invalidated a particular buffer and an I/O error on a log buffer that contains the bli associated with the same (now stale) buffer. Both transaction and log contexts acquire a bli reference. If the transaction has already invalidated the buffer by the time the I/O error occurs and ends up aborting due to shutdown, the transaction and log hold the last two references to a stale bli. If the transaction cancel occurs first, it treats the buffer as non-stale due to the aborted state: the bli reference is dropped and the buffer is released/unlocked. The log buffer I/O error handling eventually calls into xfs_buf_item_unpin(), drops the final reference to the bli and treats it as stale. The buffer wasn't left locked by xfs_buf_item_unlock(), however, so the assert fails and the buffer is double unlocked. The latter problem is mitigated by the fact that the fs is shutdown and no further damage is possible. ->iop_unlock() of an invalidated buffer should behave consistently with respect to the bli refcount, regardless of aborted state. If the refcount remains elevated on commit, we know the bli is awaiting an unpin (since it can't be in another transaction) and will be handled appropriately on log buffer completion. If the final bli reference of an invalidated buffer is dropped in ->iop_unlock(), we can assume the transaction has aborted because invalidation implies a dirty transaction. In the non-abort case, the log would have acquired a bli reference in ->iop_pin() and prevented bli release at ->iop_unlock() time. In the abort case the item must be freed and buffer unlocked because it wasn't pinned by the log. Rework xfs_buf_item_unlock() to simplify the currently circuitous and duplicate logic and leave invalidated buffers locked based on bli refcount, regardless of aborted state. This ensures that a pinned, stale buffer is always found locked when eventually unpinned.
