   From previous testing, I don't think it's an issue in systemd, so I
did a simple test and found the issue is gone.
You only need to add a small delay in md_release(), then the issue
can't be reproduced.

I have repro and I tested it on my setup. It is not working for me.
My setup could be more "advanced" to maximalize chance of reproduction:

I have almost 99% repro ratio, slowly moving forward..

It is endless loop because systemd-shutdown sends ioctl "stop_array"
which
is successful but array is not stopped. For that reason it sets
"changed =
true".  

How does systemd-shutdown judge if array is stopped? cat /proc/mdstat or
ls /dev/md* or other way?  

Hi Yu,

It trusts return result, I confirmed that 0 is returned.
The most weird is we are returning 0 but array is still there, and it is
stopped again in next systemd loop. I don't understand why yet..

Systemd-shutdown see the change and retries to check if there is
something
else which can be stopped now, and again, again...

I will check what is returned first, it could be 0 or it could be
positive
errno (nit?) because systemd cares "if(r < 0)".  

I do noticed that there are lots of log about md123 stopped:

[ 1371.834034] md122:systemd-shutdow bd_prepare_to_claim return -16
[ 1371.840294] md122:systemd-shutdow blkdev_get_by_dev return -16
[ 1371.846845] md: md123 stopped.
[ 1371.850155] md122:systemd-shutdow bd_prepare_to_claim return -16
[ 1371.856411] md122:systemd-shutdow blkdev_get_by_dev return -16
[ 1371.862941] md: md123 stopped.

And md_ioctl->do_md_stop doesn't have error path after printing this
log, hence 0 will be returned to user.

The normal case is that:

open md123
ioctl STOP_ARRAY -> all rdev should be removed from array
close md123 -> mddev will finally be freed by:
     md_release
      mddev_put
       set_bit(MD_DELETED, &mddev->flags) -> user shound not see this
mddev
       queue_work(md_misc_wq, &mddev->del_work)

     mddev_delayed_delete
      kobject_put(&mddev->kobj)

     md_kobj_release
      del_gendisk
       md_free_disk
        mddev_free
    

Ok thanks, I understand that md_release is called on descriptor
closing, right?
    

Yes, normally close md123 should drop that last reference.

Now that you can reporduce this problem 99%, can you dig deeper and find
out what is wrong?  

Yes, working on it!

My first idea was that mddev_get and mddev_put are missing on
md_ioctl() path
but it doesn't help for the issue. My motivation here was that
md_attr_store and
md_attr_show are using them.

Systemd regenerates list of MD arrays on every loop and it is always
there, systemd is able to open file descriptor (maybe inactive?).  

md123 should not be opended again, ioctl(STOP_ARRAY) already set the
flag 'MD_CLOSING' to prevent that. Are you sure that systemd-shutdown do
open and close the array in each loop?  

I realized that I'm wrong here. 'MD_CLOSING' is cleared before ioctl
return by commit 065e519e71b2 ("md: MD_CLOSING needs to be cleared after
called md_set_readonly or do_md_stop").

I'm confused here, commit message said 'MD_CLOSING' shold not be set for
the case STOP_ARRAY_RO, but I don't understand why it's cleared for
STOP_ARRAY as well.
 

Can you try the following patch?

I think prevent array to be opened again after STOP_ARRAY might fix
this.
