[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.15 17/26] btrfs: add macros for annotating wait events with lockdep

[Sasha Levin]

From: Ioannis Angelakopoulos <iangelak@xxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit ab9a323f9ab576000795285dd7ac6afeedf29e32 ]

Introduce four macros that are used to annotate wait events in btrfs code
with lockdep;

  1) the btrfs_lockdep_init_map
  2) the btrfs_lockdep_acquire,
  3) the btrfs_lockdep_release
  4) the btrfs_might_wait_for_event macros.

The btrfs_lockdep_init_map macro is used to initialize a lockdep map.

The btrfs_lockdep_<acquire,release> macros are used by threads to take
the lockdep map as readers (shared lock) and release it, respectively.

The btrfs_might_wait_for_event macro is used by threads to take the
lockdep map as writers (exclusive lock) and release it.

In general, the lockdep annotation for wait events work as follows:

The condition for a wait event can be modified and signaled at the same
time by multiple threads. These threads hold the lockdep map as readers
when they enter a context in which blocking would prevent signaling the
condition. Frequently, this occurs when a thread violates a condition
(lockdep map acquire), before restoring it and signaling it at a later
point (lockdep map release).

The threads that block on the wait event take the lockdep map as writers
(exclusive lock). These threads have to block until all the threads that
hold the lockdep map as readers signal the condition for the wait event
and release the lockdep map.

The lockdep annotation is used to warn about potential deadlock scenarios
that involve the threads that modify and signal the wait event condition
and threads that block on the wait event. A simple example is illustrated
below:

Without lockdep:

TA                                        TB
cond = false
                                          lock(A)
                                          wait_event(w, cond)
                                          unlock(A)
lock(A)
cond = true
signal(w)
unlock(A)

With lockdep:

TA                                        TB
rwsem_acquire_read(lockdep_map)
cond = false
                                          lock(A)
                                          rwsem_acquire(lockdep_map)
                                          rwsem_release(lockdep_map)
                                          wait_event(w, cond)
                                          unlock(A)
lock(A)
cond = true
signal(w)
unlock(A)
rwsem_release(lockdep_map)

In the second case, with the lockdep annotation, lockdep would warn about
an ABBA deadlock, while the first case would just deadlock at some point.
