ocfs2/dlm: continue to purge recovery lockres when recovery master goes down
We found a dlm-blocked situation caused by continuous breakdown of recovery masters described below. To solve this problem, we should purge recovery lock once detecting recovery master goes down. N3 N2 N1(reco master) go down pick up recovery lock and begin recoverying for N2 go down pick up recovery lock failed, then purge it: dlm_purge_lockres ->DROPPING_REF is set send deref to N1 failed, recovery lock is not purged find N1 go down, begin recoverying for N1, but blocked in dlm_do_recovery as DROPPING_REF is set: dlm_do_recovery ->dlm_pick_recovery_master ->dlmlock ->dlm_get_lock_resource ->__dlm_wait_on_lockres_flags(tmpres, DLM_LOCK_RES_DROPPING_REF); Fixes: 8c034396 ("ocfs2/dlm: clear DROPPING_REF flag when the master goes down") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/578453AF.8030404@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Jun Piao <piaojun@huawei.com> Reviewed-by: Joseph Qi <joseph.qi@huawei.com> Reviewed-by: Jiufei Xue <xuejiufei@huawei.com> Reviewed-by: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.de> Cc: Joel Becker <jlbec@evilplan.org> Cc: Junxiao Bi <junxiao.bi@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
