      dm kcopyd: fix callback race · 340cd444
      Mikulas Patocka 提交于
      If the thread calling dm_kcopyd_copy is delayed due to scheduling inside
      split_job/segment_complete and the subjobs complete before the loop in
      split_job completes, the kcopyd callback could be invoked from the
      thread that called dm_kcopyd_copy instead of the kcopyd workqueue.
      
      dm_kcopyd_copy -> split_job -> segment_complete -> job->fn()
      
      Snapshots depend on the fact that callbacks are called from the singlethreaded
      kcopyd workqueue and expect that there is no racing between individual
      callbacks. The racing between callbacks can lead to corruption of exception
      store and it can also mean that exception store callbacks are called twice
      for the same exception - a likely reason for crashes reported inside
      pending_complete() / remove_exception().
      
      This patch fixes two problems:
      
      1. job->fn being called from the thread that submitted the job (see above).
      
      - Fix: hand over the completion callback to the kcopyd thread.
      
      2. job->fn(read_err, write_err, job->context); in segment_complete
      reports the error of the last subjob, not the union of all errors.
      
      - Fix: pass job->write_err to the callback to report all error bits
        (it is done already in run_complete_job)

      dm kcopyd: prepare for callback race fix · 73830857
      Mikulas Patocka 提交于
      Use a variable in segment_complete() to point to the dm_kcopyd_client
      struct and only release job->pages in run_complete_job() if any are
      defined.  These changes are needed by the next patch.
