[PATCH -next] md: fix duplicate filename for rdev
From: Yu Kuai
Date: Fri Apr 28 2023 - 03:13:06 EST
From: Yu Kuai <yukuai3@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 5792a2856a63 ("[PATCH] md: avoid a deadlock when removing a device
from an md array via sysfs") delay the deleting of rdev, however, this
introduce a window that rdev can be added again while the deleting is
not done yet, and sysfs will complain about duplicate filename.
Follow up patches try to fix this problem by flush workqueue, however,
flush_rdev_wq() is just dead code, the progress in
md_kick_rdev_from_array():
1) list_del_rcu(&rdev->same_set);
2) synchronize_rcu();
3) queue_work(md_rdev_misc_wq, &rdev->del_work);
So in flush_rdev_wq(), if rdev is found in the list, work_pending() can
never pass, in the meantime, if work is queued, then rdev can never be
found in the list.
flush_rdev_wq() can be replaced by flush_workqueue() directly, however,
this approach is not good:
- the workqueue is global, this synchronization for all raid disks is
not necessary.
- flush_workqueue can't be called under 'reconfig_mutex', there is still
a small window between flush_workqueue() and mddev_lock() that other
context can queue new work, hence the problem is not solved completely.
sysfs already have apis to support delete itself through writer, and
these apis, specifically sysfs_break/unbreak_active_protection(), is used
so support deleting rdev synchronously. Therefore, the above commit can be
reverted, and sysfs duplicate filename can be avoided.
A new mdadm regression test [1] is proposed as well.
