Stack trace of the panic

I'm hitting the following panic on the Cavium ThunderX in the cluster when testing ZFS:

panic: solaris assert: zrl->zr_refcount == 0 (0x6 == 0x0), file: /usr/home/andrew/head/sys/cddl/contrib/opensolaris/uts/common/fs/zfs/zrlock.c, line: 64

I can trigger this with Poudriere cleaning up after it failes to create a jail.

I filed an issue against zrlock a while ago: https://www.illumos.org/issues/3746

Here is a rebased version of the original patch against FreeBSD/head:
http://people.freebsd.org/~will/patches/zrlock-fix-atomicity.diff

I haven't tested this specific version of the patch, but another version of it has been in our tree in production for 3 years.
Comment 4 Andrew Turner freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2015-11-05 11:48:48 UTC
I think the issue is atomic_cas_32 is broken on arm64. We use the version in sys/cddl/compat/opensolaris/kern/opensolaris_atomic.c when we need to write it in assembler to use the correct atomic instructions. I've hacked in the code from atomic_cmpset_32 for testing.
Comment 5 Konstantin Belousov freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2015-11-05 13:23:58 UTC
(In reply to Andrew Turner from comment #4)
Why cannot the cddl code use FreeBSD native atomic.h implementation ?  As in, calling the inlined atomic_add_32 ?
Comment 6 Andrew Turner freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2015-11-05 13:39:42 UTC
(In reply to Konstantin Belousov from comment #5)
It does, other than the few places it can't (or couldn't when written). It needs: atomic_add_64_nv, atomic_cas_32, atomic_cas_64, atomic_or_8_nv, and membar_producer.

The _nv functions return the new value, after the operation. The cas functions return the value in the target before the operation. None of these have an equivalent atomic function.

I think membar_producer can be updated to use an atomic fence.
Comment 7 Konstantin Belousov freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2015-11-05 13:49:41 UTC
(In reply to Andrew Turner from comment #6)
atomic_add_nv() can be easily implemented with atomic_fetchadd_32(), and I think it is already done this way in some situations.

WRT atomic_cas, I used the following code to emulate casueword32() for the kernel-memory accesses:

	for (;;) {
		ov = *(volatile const uint32_t *)base;
		if (ov != oldval)
			break;
		if (atomic_cmpset_32(base, oldval, newval))
			break;
	}
	*oldvalp = ov;

I believe that we should implement all solaris atomics with the freebsd one, and remove MD-specific code.

Author: andrew
Date: Thu Nov  5 16:55:27 UTC 2015
New revision: 290397
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/290397

Log:
  Fix the open solaris atomic functions on arm64. Without this we may use the
  wrong value in the comparison, leading to incorrectly setting the new
  value.

  This has been observed in the ZFS code. Without this we can lose track of
  the reference count in a zrlock object.

  We should move to use the generic atomic functions, however as this has
  been observed I would prefer to have this working, then move to the generic
  functions.

Comment 9 Kurt Lidl freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2015-11-06 20:34:09 UTC
For whatever it's worth, I ran into this panic on my amd64 machine this morning,
running a build of r290447M.

The first time it panic'd, I had just issued a "shutdown -r now" command.
I was able to collect a textdump of that panic, and reboot the machine.

I tried to run 'shutdown -r now' again, and it panic'd again, in the
same place.

I collected a full crashdump this time.

I have reverted back to a prior kernel (r290391M) and am rebuilding a kernel
with the patch from comment #3 in this bug.
Comment 10 Kurt Lidl freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2015-11-06 20:56:31 UTC
The kernel with the patch from comment #3 in this bug panics the same way
on my amd64 host.

I will attach a backtrace in just a minute.

kgdb backtrace for crash
Comment 12 Kurt Lidl freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2015-11-27 17:43:39 UTC
I ended up reverting to an older kernel so I could compile a more up-to-date
version of -head on my amd64 machine.  With these sources:

FreeBSD busybox.pix.net 11.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 11.0-CURRENT #92 r291335M: Wed Nov 25 14:59:52 EST 2015     lidl@busybox.pix.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/BUSYBOX  amd64

I no longer see this panic on my amd64 host.
Comment 13 heathn 2016-05-28 21:44:40 UTC
I'm seeing this same problem on an arm processor (Raspberry Pi 2).

FreeBSD rpi2 11.0-ALPHA1 FreeBSD 11.0-ALPHA1 #0 r300905M: Sat May 28 13:06:17 MDT 2016

panic: solaris assert: zrl->zr-refcount == 0 (0x1 == 0x0), file: /usr/home/heath/freebsd-current/sys/cddl/contrib/opensolaris/uts/common/fs/zfs/zrlock.c, line: 64


I also tried the patch in comment #3 but it still panic'd.

  3746 ZRLs are racy

  https://github.com/illumos/illumos-gate/commit/260af64db74a52d64de8c6c5f67dd0a71d228ca5

  https://www.illumos.org/issues/3746
    From the original change log:
    It was possible for a reference to be added even with the lock held, and
    for references added just after a lock release to be lost.
    This bug was also independently found and reported in wesunsolve.net
    issues 6985013 6995524.
    In zrl_add(), always use an atomic operation to update the refcount.
    The mutex in the ZRL only guarantees that wakeups occur for waiters on the
    lock. It offers no protection against concurrent updates of the refcount.
    The only refcount transition that is safe to perform without an atomic
    operation is from ZRL_LOCKED back to 0, since this can only be performed
    by the thread which has the ZRL locked.
