ocfs2/dlm: continue to purge recovery lockres when recovery master goes down
We found a dlm-blocked situation caused by continuous breakdown of
recovery masters described below. To solve this problem, we should
purge recovery lock once detecting recovery master goes down.
N3 N2 N1(reco master)
go down
pick up recovery lock and
begin recoverying for N2
go down
pick up recovery
lock failed, then
purge it:
dlm_purge_lockres
->DROPPING_REF is set
send deref to N1 failed,
recovery lock is not purged
find N1 go down, begin
recoverying for N1, but
blocked in dlm_do_recovery
as DROPPING_REF is set:
dlm_do_recovery
->dlm_pick_recovery_master
->dlmlock
->dlm_get_lock_resource
->__dlm_wait_on_lockres_flags(tmpres,
DLM_LOCK_RES_DROPPING_REF);
