With writeback feature, zram_slot_free_notify could be called
in softirq context by end_swap_bio_read. However, bitmap_lock
is not aware of that so lockdep yell out. Thanks.
get_entry_bdev
spin_lock(bitmap->lock);
irq
softirq
end_swap_bio_read
zram_slot_free_notify
zram_slot_lock <-- deadlock prone
zram_free_page
put_entry_bdev
spin_lock(bitmap->lock); <-- deadlock prone
With akpm's suggestion(i.e. bitmap operation is already atomic),
we could remove bitmap lock. It might fail to find a empty slot
if serious contention happens. However, it's not severe problem
because huge page writeback has already possiblity to fail if there
is severe memory pressure. Worst case is just keeping
the incompressible in memory, not storage.
The other problem is zram_slot_lock in zram_slot_slot_free_notify.
To make it safe is this patch introduces zram_slot_trylock where
zram_slot_free_notify uses it. Although it's rare to be contented,
this patch adds new debug stat "miss_free" to keep monitoring
how often it happens.
