[PATCH] f2fs: remove i_xattr_sem to avoid deadlock and fix the original issue
From: Jaegeuk Kim
Date: Tue Jun 13 2023 - 19:41:22 EST
This reverts commit 27161f13e3c3 "f2fs: avoid race in between read xattr & write xattr".
That introduced a deadlock case:
Thread #1:

Let's take a look at the original issue back.
Thread A: Thread B:
-f2fs_getxattr
-lookup_all_xattrs
-xnid = F2FS_I(inode)->i_xattr_nid;
-f2fs_setxattr
-__f2fs_setxattr
-write_all_xattrs
-truncate_xattr_node
... ...
-write_checkpoint
... ...
-alloc_nid <- nid reuse
-get_node_page
-f2fs_bug_on <- nid != node_footer->nid
I think we don't need to truncate xattr pages eagerly which introduces lots of
data races without big benefits.
