Wong" <djwong(a)kernel.org> Date: Mon, 15 Sep 2025 17:24:17 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] fuse: fix livelock in synchronous file put from fuseblk workers I observed a hang when running generic/323 against a fuseblk server. This test opens a file, initiates a lot of AIO writes to that file descriptor, and closes the file descriptor before the writes complete. Unsurprisingly, the AIO exerciser threads are mostly stuck waiting for responses from the fuseblk server: # cat /proc/372265/task/372313/stack [<0>] request_wait_answer+0x1fe/0x2a0 [fuse] [<0>] __fuse_simple_request+0xd3/0x2b0 [fuse] [<0>] fuse_do_getattr+0xfc/0x1f0 [fuse] [<0>] fuse_file_read_iter+0xbe/0x1c0 [fuse] [<0>] aio_read+0x130/0x1e0 [<0>] io_submit_one+0x542/0x860 [<0>] __x64_sys_io_submit+0x98/0x1a0 [<0>] do_syscall_64+0x37/0xf0 [<0>] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x4b/0x53 But the /weird/ part is that the fuseblk server threads are waiting for responses from itself: # cat /proc/372210/task/372232/stack [<0>] request_wait_answer+0x1fe/0x2a0 [fuse] [<0>] __fuse_simple_request+0xd3/0x2b0 [fuse] [<0>] fuse_file_put+0x9a/0xd0 [fuse] [<0>] fuse_release+0x36/0x50 [fuse] [<0>] __fput+0xec/0x2b0 [<0>] task_work_run+0x55/0x90 [<0>] syscall_exit_to_user_mode+0xe9/0x100 [<0>] do_syscall_64+0x43/0xf0 [<0>] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x4b/0x53 The fuseblk server is fuse2fs so there's nothing all that exciting in the server itself. So why is the fuse server calling fuse_file_put? The commit message for the fstest sheds some light on that: "By closing the file descriptor before calling io_destroy, you pretty much guarantee that the last put on the ioctx will be done in interrupt context (during I/O completion). Aha. AIO fgets a new struct file from the fd when it queues the ioctx. The completion of the FUSE_WRITE command from userspace causes the fuse server to call the AIO completion function. The completion puts the struct file, queuing a delayed fput to the fuse server task. When the fuse server task returns to userspace, it has to run the delayed fput, which in the case of a fuseblk server, it does synchronously. Sending the FUSE_RELEASE command sychronously from fuse server threads is a bad idea because a client program can initiate enough simultaneous AIOs such that all the fuse server threads end up in delayed_fput, and now there aren't any threads left to handle the queued fuse commands. Fix this by only using asynchronous fputs when closing files, and leave a comment explaining why.

[PATCH 5.4.y 0/5] v5.4: fix build with GCC 15

by Matthieu Baerts (NGI0)

Two backports linked to build issues with GCC 15 have failed in this version: - ee2ab467bddf ("x86/boot: Use '-std=gnu11' to fix build with GCC 15") - 8ba14d9f490a ("efi: libstub: Use '-std=gnu11' to fix build with GCC 15") Conflicts have been solved, and described. After that, this kernel version still didn't build with GCC 15: In file included from include/uapi/linux/posix_types.h:5, from include/uapi/linux/types.h:14, from include/linux/types.h:6, from arch/x86/realmode/rm/wakeup.h:11, from arch/x86/realmode/rm/wakemain.c:2: include/linux/stddef.h:11:9: error: cannot use keyword 'false' as enumeration constant 11 | false = 0, | ^~~~~ include/linux/stddef.h:11:9: note: 'false' is a keyword with '-std=c23' onwards include/linux/types.h:30:33: error: 'bool' cannot be defined via 'typedef' 30 | typedef _Bool bool; | ^~~~ include/linux/types.h:30:33: note: 'bool' is a keyword with '-std=c23' onwards include/linux/types.h:30:1: warning: useless type name in empty declaration 30 | typedef _Bool bool; | ^~~~~~~ I initially fixed this by adding -std=gnu11 in arch/x86/Makefile, then I realised this fix was already done in an upstream commit, created before the GCC 15 release and not mentioning the error I had. This is patch 3. When I was investigating my error, I noticed other commits were already backported to stable versions. They were all adding -std=gnu11 in different Makefiles. In their commit message, they were mentioning 'gnu11' was picked to use the same as the one from the main Makefile. But this is not the case in this kernel version. Patch 4 fixes that. Finally, I noticed extra warnings I didn't have in v5.10. Patch 5 fixes that.
