Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.

Commit 4f5427ccce5d ("btrfs: delayed-inode: Use new qgroup meta rsv for
delayed inode and item") merged into mainline was not latest version
submitted to the mail list in Dec 2017.
Which lacks the following fixes:
1) Remove btrfs_qgroup_convert_reserved_meta() call in
btrfs_delayed_item_release_metadata()
2) Remove btrfs_qgroup_reserve_meta_prealloc() call in
btrfs_delayed_inode_reserve_metadata()
Those fixes will resolve unexpected EDQUOT problems.

Unlike reservation calculation used in inode rsv for metadata, qgroup
doesn't really need to care about things like csum size or extent usage
for the whole tree COW.
Qgroups care more about net change of the extent usage.
That's to say, if we're going to insert one file extent, it will mostly
find its place in COWed tree block, leaving no change in extent usage.
Or causing a leaf split, resulting in one new net extent and increasing
qgroup number by nodesize.
Or in an even more rare case, increase the tree level, increasing qgroup
number by 2 * nodesize.
So here instead of using the complicated calculation for extent
allocator, which cares more about accuracy and no error, qgroup doesn't
need that over-estimated reservation.
This patch will maintain 2 new members in btrfs_block_rsv structure for
qgroup, using much smaller calculation for qgroup rsv, reducing false
EDQUOT.

Unlike previous method that tries to commit transaction inside
qgroup_reserve(), this time we will try to commit transaction using
fs_info->transaction_kthread to avoid nested transaction and no need to
worry about locking context.
Since it's an asynchronous function call and we won't wait for
transaction commit, unlike previous method, we must call it before we
hit the qgroup limit.
So this patch will use the ratio and size of qgroup meta_pertrans
reservation as indicator to check if we should trigger a transaction
commit. (meta_prealloc won't be cleaned in transaction committ, it's
useless anyway)

The problem here is, at btree_read_extent_buffer_pages() we don't have
acquired read/write lock on that extent buffer, only basic info like
level/bytenr is reliable.
So race condition leads to such false alert.
However in current call site, it's impossible to acquire proper lock
without race window.
To fix the problem, we only verify first key for committed tree blocks
(whose generation is no larger than fs_info->last_trans_committed), so
the content of such tree blocks will not change and there is no need to
get read/write lock.

Currently if we allocate extents beyond an inode's i_size (through the
fallocate system call) and then fsync the file, we log the extents but
after a power failure we replay them and then immediately drop them.
This behaviour happens since about 2009, commit c71bf099abdd ("Btrfs:
Avoid orphan inodes cleanup while replaying log"), because it marks
the inode as an orphan instead of dropping any extents beyond i_size
before replaying logged extents, so after the log replay, and while
the mount operation is still ongoing, we find the inode marked as an
orphan and then perform a truncation (drop extents beyond the inode's
i_size). Because the processing of orphan inodes is still done
right after replaying the log and before the mount operation finishes,
the intention of that commit does not make any sense (at least as
of today). However reverting that behaviour is not enough, because
we can not simply discard all extents beyond i_size and then replay
logged extents, because we risk dropping extents beyond i_size created
in past transactions, for example:
add prealloc extent beyond i_size
fsync - clears the flag BTRFS_INODE_NEEDS_FULL_SYNC from the inode
transaction commit
add another prealloc extent beyond i_size
fsync - triggers the fast fsync path
power failure
In that scenario, we would drop the first extent and then replay the
second one. To fix this just make sure that all prealloc extents
beyond i_size are logged, and if we find too many (which is far from
a common case), fallback to a full transaction commit (like we do when
logging regular extents in the fast fsync path).
Trivial reproducer:
$ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdb
$ mount /dev/sdb /mnt
$ xfs_io -f -c "pwrite -S 0xab 0 256K" /mnt/foo
$ sync
$ xfs_io -c "falloc -k 256K 1M" /mnt/foo
$ xfs_io -c "fsync" /mnt/foo
<power failure>
# mount to replay log
$ mount /dev/sdb /mnt
# at this point the file only has one extent, at offset 0, size 256K
A test case for fstests follows soon, covering multiple scenarios that
involve adding prealloc extents with previous shrinking truncates and
without such truncates.

Currently if some fatal errors occur, like all IO get -EIO, resources
would be cleaned up when
a) transaction is being committed or
b) BTRFS_FS_STATE_ERROR is set
However, in some rare cases, resources may be left alone after transaction
gets aborted and umount may run into some ASSERT(), e.g.
ASSERT(list_empty(&block_group->dirty_list));
For case a), in btrfs_commit_transaciton(), there're several places at the
beginning where we just call btrfs_end_transaction() without cleaning up
resources. For case b), it is possible that the trans handle doesn't have
any dirty stuff, then only trans hanlde is marked as aborted while
BTRFS_FS_STATE_ERROR is not set, so resources remain in memory.
This makes btrfs also check BTRFS_FS_STATE_TRANS_ABORTED to make sure that
all resources won't stay in memory after umount.

do_chunk_alloc implements a loop checking whether there is a pending
chunk allocation and if so causes the caller do loop. Generally this
loop is executed only once, however testing with btrfs/072 on a single
core vm machines uncovered an extreme case where the system could loop
indefinitely. This is due to a missing cond_resched when loop which
doesn't give a chance to the previous chunk allocator finish its job.
The fix is to simply add the missing cond_resched.
