[PATCH v2] f2fs: fix to avoid racing in between read and OPU dio write
Posted by Chao Yu 1 year, 5 months ago
If lfs mode is on, buffered read may race w/ OPU dio write as below,
it may cause buffered read hits unwritten data unexpectly, and for
dio read, the race condition exists as well.

Thread A			Thread B
- f2fs_file_write_iter
 - f2fs_dio_write_iter
  - __iomap_dio_rw
   - f2fs_iomap_begin
    - f2fs_map_blocks
     - __allocate_data_block
      - allocated blkaddr #x
       - iomap_dio_submit_bio
				- f2fs_file_read_iter
				 - filemap_read
				  - f2fs_read_data_folio
				   - f2fs_mpage_readpages
				    - f2fs_map_blocks
				     : get blkaddr #x
				    - f2fs_submit_read_bio
				IRQ
				- f2fs_read_end_io
				 : read IO on blkaddr #x complete
IRQ
- iomap_dio_bio_end_io
 : direct write IO on blkaddr #x complete

In LFS mode, if there is inflight dio, let's force read to buffered
IO, this policy won't cover all race cases, however it is a tradeoff
which avoids abusing lock around IO paths.

Fixes: f847c699cff3 ("f2fs: allow out-place-update for direct IO in LFS mode")

Hi Chao,
A little doubt:),force “buffered IO” should return "true"?
another want to confirm is, "thread B" in commit msg just doing buffer
read, so this modification just cover direct read case?
thanks!

Oops, too rush to send the patch...

Oh, the fix is incorrect, will look into it soon.

Thanks,
