Analyzed informations from vmcore as follows:
(1) There are about 5k+ jbd2_inode in 'commit_transaction->t_inode_list';
(2) Now is processing the 855th jbd2_inode;
(3) JBD2 task has TIF_NEED_RESCHED flag;
(4) There's no pags in address_space around the 855th jbd2_inode;
(5) There are some process is doing drop caches;
(6) Mounted with 'nodioread_nolock' option;
(7) 128 CPUs;

According to informations from vmcore we know 'journal->j_list_lock' spin lock
competition is fierce. So journal_finish_inode_data_buffers() maybe process
slowly. Theoretically, there is scheduling point in the filemap_fdatawait_range_keep_errors().
However, if inode's address_space has no pages which taged with PAGECACHE_TAG_WRITEBACK,
will not call cond_resched(). So may lead to soft lockup.
journal_finish_inode_data_buffers
filemap_fdatawait_range_keep_errors
__filemap_fdatawait_range
while (index <= end)
nr_pages = pagevec_lookup_range_tag(&pvec, mapping, &index, end, PAGECACHE_TAG_WRITEBACK);
if (!nr_pages)
break; --> If 'nr_pages' is equal zero will break, then will not call cond_resched()
for (i = 0; i < nr_pages; i++)
wait_on_page_writeback(page);
cond_resched();

To solve above issue, add scheduling point in the journal_finish_inode_data_buffers();

[ Upstream commit 6a3afb6ac6dfab158ebdd4b87941178f58c8939f ]

Current jbd2 only add REQ_SYNC for descriptor block, metadata log
buffer, commit buffer and superblock buffer, the submitted IO could be
throttled by writeback throttle in block layer, that could lead to
priority inversion in some cases. The log IO looks like a kind of high
priority metadata IO, so it should not be throttled by WBT like QOS
policies in block layer, let's add REQ_SYNC | REQ_IDLE to exempt from
writeback throttle, and also add REQ_META together indicates it's a
metadata IO.

jbd2: Remove page size assumptions

jbd2_alloc() allocates a buffer from slab when the block size is smaller
than PAGE_SIZE, and slab may be using a compound page. Before commit
8147c4c4546f, we set b_page to the precise page containing the buffer
and this code worked well. Now we set b_page to the head page of the
allocation, so we can no longer use offset_in_page(). While we could
do a 1:1 replacement with offset_in_folio(), use the more idiomatic
bh_offset() and the folio APIs to map the buffer.

This isn't enough to support a b_size larger than PAGE_SIZE on HIGHMEM
machines, but this is good enough to fix the actual bug we're seeing.

jbd2: fix outstanding credits assert in jbd2_journal_commit_transaction()

We catch an assert problem in jbd2_journal_commit_transaction() when
doing fsstress and request falut injection tests. The problem is
happened in a race condition between jbd2_journal_commit_transaction()
and ext4_end_io_end(). Firstly, ext4_writepages() writeback dirty pages
and start reserved handle, and then the journal was aborted due to some
previous metadata IO error, jbd2_journal_abort() start to commit current
running transaction, the committing procedure could be raced by
ext4_end_io_end() and lead to subtract j_reserved_credits twice from
commit_transaction->t_outstanding_credits, finally the
t_outstanding_credits is mistakenly smaller than t_nr_buffers and
trigger assert.

kjournald2 kworker

jbd2_journal_commit_transaction()
write_unlock(&journal->j_state_lock);
atomic_sub(j_reserved_credits, t_outstanding_credits); //sub once

jbd2_journal_start_reserved()

read_lock(&journal->j_state_lock)

//sub again
read_unlock(&journal->j_state_lock);

journal->j_running_transaction = NULL;
J_ASSERT(t_nr_buffers <= t_outstanding_credits) //bomb!!!

Fix this issue by using journal->j_state_lock to protect the subtraction
in jbd2_journal_commit_transaction().

journal_head to be freed by journal_unmap_buffer while the commit
codepath is also trying to free the BJ_Reserved buffers. Keeping
j_state_lock held while trying extends hold time of the lock
minimally, and solves this issue.

doing fsstress and request falut injection tests. The problem is
happened in a race condition between jbd2_journal_commit_transaction()
and ext4_end_io_end(). Firstly, ext4_writepages() writeback dirty pages
and start reserved handle, and then the journal was aborted due to some
previous metadata IO error, jbd2_journal_abort() start to commit current
running transaction, the committing procedure could be raced by
ext4_end_io_end() and lead to subtract j_reserved_credits twice from
commit_transaction->t_outstanding_credits, finally the
t_outstanding_credits is mistakenly smaller than t_nr_buffers and
trigger assert.

kjournald2 kworker

jbd2_journal_commit_transaction()
write_unlock(&journal->j_state_lock);
atomic_sub(j_reserved_credits, t_outstanding_credits); //sub once

jbd2_journal_start_reserved()
start_this_handle() //detect aborted journal
jbd2_journal_free_reserved() //get running transaction
read_lock(&journal->j_state_lock)
__jbd2_journal_unreserve_handle()
atomic_sub(j_reserved_credits, t_outstanding_credits);
//sub again
read_unlock(&journal->j_state_lock);

journal->j_running_transaction = NULL;
J_ASSERT(t_nr_buffers <= t_outstanding_credits) //bomb!!!

Fix this issue by using journal->j_state_lock to protect the subtraction
in jbd2_journal_commit_transaction().

journal_free_journal_head(jh);

After commit 96f1e0974575, we no longer hold the j_state_lock while
iterating over the list of reserved handles in
jbd2_journal_commit_transaction(). This potentially allows the
journal_head to be freed by journal_unmap_buffer while the commit
codepath is also trying to free the BJ_Reserved buffers. Keeping
j_state_lock held while trying extends hold time of the lock
minimally, and solves this issue.

ext4: fast commit may not fallback for ineligible commit

[ Upstream commit e85c81ba8859a4c839bcd69c5d83b32954133a5b ]

For the follow scenario:
1. jbd start commit transaction n
2. task A get new handle for transaction n+1
3. task A do some ineligible actions and mark FC_INELIGIBLE
4. jbd complete transaction n and clean FC_INELIGIBLE
5. task A call fsync

In this case fast commit will not fallback to full commit and
transaction n+1 also not handled by jbd.

Make ext4_fc_mark_ineligible() also record transaction tid for
latest ineligible case, when call ext4_fc_cleanup() check
current transaction tid, if small than latest ineligible tid
do not clear the EXT4_MF_FC_INELIGIBLE.

jbd2: rename j_maxlen to j_total_len and add jbd2_journal_max_txn_bufs

The on-disk superblock field sb->s_maxlen represents the total size of
the journal including the fast commit area and is no more the max
number of blocks available for a transaction. The maximum number of
blocks available to a transaction is reduced by the number of fast
commit blocks. So, this patch renames j_maxlen to j_total_len to
better represent its intent. Also, it adds a function to calculate max
number of bufs available for a transaction.
