Subject: [PATCH storage 3/3] lvm plugin: do not hold inherited locks in cleanup workers
Date: Thu, 5 Nov 2026 17:36:37 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261105163637.1318072-4-m.koeppl@proxmox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261105163637.1318072-1-m.koeppl@proxmox.com>
The LVM plugin forks its own cleanup workers when rolling back or
deleting snapshots of qcow2 volumes and after failed imports. Like the
worker forked by vdisk_free(), they inherit the locks of their caller
and keep them held until the cleanup is done. This can happen, e.g.,
when restoring a backup over an existing VM with a qcow2 snapshot on LVM
and a disk excluded from the backup, which deletes that disk's snapshot
while holding the config lock. After the restore has finished, changing
or starting the VM then fails with a lock timeout until the cleanup is
done.
Close the inherited lock handles at the start of these workers too.
Since the cleanup worker of a rollback no longer holds the guest
migration lock, another rollback of the same volume can start while the
previous volume is still being wiped. Renaming the current volume to
del-<name> then fails, but only after the guest was already locked for
the rollback, leaving it locked. Check in volume_rollback_is_possible()
that del-<name> does not exist, so such a rollback is refused before the
guest is locked.
