[PATCH 4.19 162/219] bcache: fix deadlock in bcache_allocator

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sun Dec 29 2019 - 12:35:37 EST


From: Andrea Righi <andrea.righi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 84c529aea182939e68f618ed9813740c9165c7eb ]

bcache_allocator can call the following:

bch_allocator_thread()
-> bch_prio_write()
-> bch_bucket_alloc()
-> wait on &ca->set->bucket_wait

But the wake up event on bucket_wait is supposed to come from
bch_allocator_thread() itself => deadlock:

[ 1158.490744] INFO: task bcache_allocato:15861 blocked for more than 10 seconds.

[ 1158.504510] ret_from_fork+0x35/0x40

Fix by making the call to bch_prio_write() non-blocking, so that
bch_allocator_thread() never waits on itself.

Moreover, make sure to wake up the garbage collector thread when
bch_prio_write() is failing to allocate buckets.
