Illumos #1313: Integer overflow in txg_delay()
The function txg_delay() is used to delay txg (transaction group) threads in ZFS. The timeout value for this function is calculated using: int timeout = ddi_get_lbolt() + ticks; Later, the actual wait is performed: while (ddi_get_lbolt() < timeout && tx->tx_syncing_txg < txg-1 && !txg_stalled(dp)) (void) cv_timedwait(&tx->tx_quiesce_more_cv, &tx->tx_sync_lock, timeout - ddi_get_lbolt()); The ddi_get_lbolt() function returns current uptime in clock ticks and is typed as clock_t. The clock_t type on 64-bit architectures is int64_t. The "timeout" variable will overflow depending on the tick frequency (e.g. for 1000 it will overflow in 28.855 days). This will make the expression "ddi_get_lbolt() < timeout" always false - txg threads will not be delayed anymore at all. This leads to a slowdown in ZFS writes. The attached patch initializes timeout as clock_t to match the return value of ddi_get_lbolt(). Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Issue #352
