md-cluster uses MD_CLUSTER_SEND_LOCK to make node can exclusively send msg.
During sending msg, node can concurrently receive msg from another node.
When node does resync job, grab token_lockres:EX may trigger a deadlock:
```
nodeA nodeB
-------------------- --------------------
a.
send METADATA_UPDATED
held token_lockres:EX
b.
md_do_sync
resync_info_update
send RESYNCING
+ set MD_CLUSTER_SEND_LOCK
+ wait for holding token_lockres:EX
c.
mdadm /dev/md0 --remove /dev/sdg
+ held reconfig_mutex
+ send REMOVE
+ wait_event(MD_CLUSTER_SEND_LOCK)
d.
recv_daemon //METADATA_UPDATED from A
process_metadata_update
+ (mddev_trylock(mddev) ||
MD_CLUSTER_HOLDING_MUTEX_FOR_RECVD)
//this time, both return false forever
```
Explaination:
a. A send METADATA_UPDATED
This will block another node to send msg
b. B does sync jobs, which will send RESYNCING at intervals.
This will be block for holding token_lockres:EX lock.
c. B do "mdadm --remove", which will send REMOVE.
This will be blocked by step <b>: MD_CLUSTER_SEND_LOCK is 1.
d. B recv METADATA_UPDATED msg, which send from A in step <a>.
This will be blocked by step <c>: holding mddev lock, it makes
wait_event can't hold mddev lock. (btw,
MD_CLUSTER_HOLDING_MUTEX_FOR_RECVD keep ZERO in this scenario.)
There is a similar deadlock in commit 0ba959774e
("md-cluster: use sync way to handle METADATA_UPDATED msg")
In that commit, step c is "update sb". This patch step c is
"mdadm --remove".
For fixing this issue, we can refer the solution of function:
metadata_update_start. Which does the same grab lock_token action.
lock_comm can use the same steps to avoid deadlock. By moving
MD_CLUSTER_HOLDING_MUTEX_FOR_RECVD from lock_token to lock_comm.
It enlarge a little bit window of MD_CLUSTER_HOLDING_MUTEX_FOR_RECVD,
but it is safe & can break deadlock.
Repro steps (I only triggered 3 times with hundreds tests):
two nodes share 3 iSCSI luns: sdg/sdh/sdi. Each lun size is 1GB.
```
ssh root@node2 "mdadm -S --scan"
mdadm -S --scan
for i in {g,h,i};do dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sd$i oflag=direct bs=1M \
count=20; done
mdadm -C /dev/md0 -b clustered -e 1.2 -n 2 -l mirror /dev/sdg /dev/sdh \
--bitmap-chunk=1M
ssh root@node2 "mdadm -A /dev/md0 /dev/sdg /dev/sdh"
sleep 5
mkfs.xfs /dev/md0
mdadm --manage --add /dev/md0 /dev/sdi
mdadm --wait /dev/md0
mdadm --grow --raid-devices=3 /dev/md0
mdadm /dev/md0 --fail /dev/sdg
mdadm /dev/md0 --remove /dev/sdg
mdadm --grow --raid-devices=2 /dev/md0
```
test script will hung when executing "mdadm --remove".
```
