Currently, we use btrfs_inode_{lock,unlock}() to grant an exclusive
writeback of the relocation data inode in
btrfs_zoned_data_reloc_{lock,unlock}(). However, that can cause a deadlock
in the following path.
Thread A takes btrfs_inode_lock() and waits for metadata reservation by
e.g, waiting for writeback:
prealloc_file_extent_cluster()
- btrfs_inode_lock(&inode->vfs_inode, 0);
- btrfs_prealloc_file_range()
...
- btrfs_replace_file_extents()
- btrfs_start_transaction
...
- btrfs_reserve_metadata_bytes()
Thread B (e.g, doing a writeback work) needs to wait for the inode lock to
continue writeback process:
do_writepages
- btrfs_writepages
- extent_writpages
- btrfs_zoned_data_reloc_lock(BTRFS_I(inode));
- btrfs_inode_lock()
The deadlock is caused by relying on the vfs_inode's lock. By using it, we
introduced unnecessary exclusion of writeback and
btrfs_prealloc_file_range(). Also, the lock at this point is useless as we
don't have any dirty pages in the inode yet.
Introduce fs_info->zoned_data_reloc_io_lock and use it for the exclusive
writeback.
