commit 887554ab96588de2917b6c8c73e552da082e5368 upstream. When multiple threads to check btree nodes in parallel, the main thread wait for all threads to stop or CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE flag: wait_event_interruptible(check_state->wait, atomic_read(&check_state->started) == 0 || test_bit(CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE, &c->flags)); However, the bch_btree_node_read and bch_btree_node_read_done maybe call bch_cache_set_error, then the CACHE_SET_IO_DISABLE will be set. If the flag already set, the main thread return error. At the same time, maybe some threads still running and read NULL pointer, the kernel will crash. This patch change the event wait condition, the main thread must wait for all threads to stop.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
