Reclaim during quotacheck can lead to deadlocks on the dquot flush
lock:
- Quotacheck populates a local delwri queue with the physical dquot
buffers.
- Quotacheck performs the xfs_qm_dqusage_adjust() bulkstat and
dirties all of the dquots.
- Reclaim kicks in and attempts to flush a dquot whose buffer is
already queud on the quotacheck queue. The flush succeeds but
queueing to the reclaim delwri queue fails as the backing buffer is
already queued. The flush unlock is now deferred to I/O completion
of the buffer from the quotacheck queue.
- The dqadjust bulkstat continues and dirties the recently flushed
dquot once again.
- Quotacheck proceeds to the xfs_qm_flush_one() walk which requires
the flush lock to update the backing buffers with the in-core
recalculated values. It deadlocks on the redirtied dquot as the
flush lock was already acquired by reclaim, but the buffer resides
on the local delwri queue which isn't submitted until the end of
quotacheck.
This is reproduced by running quotacheck on a filesystem with a
couple million inodes in low memory (512MB-1GB) situations. This is
a regression as of commit

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
