Added to prevent a possible deadlock, the following comments from FreeBSD explain the issue. The comment describing vn_io_fault_uiomove: /* * Helper function to perform the requested uiomove operation using * the held pages for io->uio_iov[0].iov_base buffer instead of * copyin/copyout. Access to the pages with uiomove_fromphys() * instead of iov_base prevents page faults that could occur due to * pmap_collect() invalidating the mapping created by * vm_fault_quick_hold_pages(), or pageout daemon, page laundry or * object cleanup revoking the write access from page mappings. * * Filesystems specified MNTK_NO_IOPF shall use vn_io_fault_uiomove() * instead of plain uiomove(). */ This used for vn_io_fault which has the following motivation: /* * The vn_io_fault() is a wrapper around vn_read() and vn_write() to * prevent the following deadlock: * * Assume that the thread A reads from the vnode vp1 into userspace * buffer buf1 backed by the pages of vnode vp2. If a page in buf1 is * currently not resident, then system ends up with the call chain * vn_read() -> VOP_READ(vp1) -> uiomove() -> [Page Fault] -> * vm_fault(buf1) -> vnode_pager_getpages(vp2) -> VOP_GETPAGES(vp2) * which establishes lock order vp1->vn_lock, then vp2->vn_lock. * If, at the same time, thread B reads from vnode vp2 into buffer buf2 * backed by the pages of vnode vp1, and some page in buf2 is not * resident, we get a reversed order vp2->vn_lock, then vp1->vn_lock. * * To prevent the lock order reversal and deadlock, vn_io_fault() does * not allow page faults to happen during VOP_READ() or VOP_WRITE(). * Instead, it first tries to do the whole range i/o with pagefaults * disabled. If all pages in the i/o buffer are resident and mapped, * VOP will succeed (ignoring the genuine filesystem errors). * Otherwise, we get back EFAULT, and vn_io_fault() falls back to do * i/o in chunks, with all pages in the chunk prefaulted and held * using vm_fault_quick_hold_pages(). * * Filesystems using this deadlock avoidance scheme should use the * array of the held pages from uio, saved in the curthread->td_ma, * instead of doing uiomove(). A helper function * vn_io_fault_uiomove() converts uiomove request into * uiomove_fromphys() over td_ma array. * * Since vnode locks do not cover the whole i/o anymore, rangelocks * make the current i/o request atomic with respect to other i/os and * truncations. */ Reviewed-by: Brian Behlendorf <behlendorf1@llnl.gov> Signed-off-by: Matt Macy <mmacy@FreeBSD.org> Closes #10177 |
