There are some actions that modify global filesystem state but cannot be
performed at the time of request, but later at the transaction commit
time when the filesystem is in a known state.
For example enabling new incompat features on-the-fly or issuing
transaction commit from unsafe contexts (sysfs handlers).

While we have a transaction ongoing, the VM might decide at any time
to call btree_inode->i_mapping->a_ops->writepages(), which will start
writeback of dirty pages belonging to btree nodes/leafs. This call
might return an error or the writeback might finish with an error
before we attempt to commit the running transaction. If this happens,
we might have no way of knowing that such error happened when we are
committing the transaction - because the pages might no longer be
marked dirty nor tagged for writeback (if a subsequent modification
to the extent buffer didn't happen before the transaction commit) which
makes filemap_fdata[write|wait]_range unable to find such pages (even
if they're marked with SetPageError).
So if this happens we must abort the transaction, otherwise we commit
a super block with btree roots that point to btree nodes/leafs whose
content on disk is invalid - either garbage or the content of some
node/leaf from a past generation that got cowed or deleted and is no
longer valid (for this later case we end up getting error messages like
"parent transid verify failed on 10826481664 wanted 25748 found 29562"
when reading btree nodes/leafs from disk).
Note that setting and checking AS_EIO/AS_ENOSPC in the btree inode's
i_mapping would not be enough because we need to distinguish between
log tree extents (not fatal) vs non-log tree extents (fatal) and
because the next call to filemap_fdatawait_range() will catch and clear
such errors in the mapping - and that call might be from a log sync and
not from a transaction commit, which means we would not know about the
error at transaction commit time. Also, checking for the eb flag
EXTENT_BUFFER_IOERR at transaction commit time isn't done and would
not be completely reliable, as the eb might be removed from memory and
read back when trying to get it, which clears that flag right before
reading the eb's pages from disk, making us not know about the previous
write error.
Using the new 3 flags for the btree inode also makes us achieve the
goal of AS_EIO/AS_ENOSPC when writepages() returns success, started
writeback for all dirty pages and before filemap_fdatawait_range() is
called, the writeback for all dirty pages had already finished with
errors - because we were not using AS_EIO/AS_ENOSPC,
filemap_fdatawait_range() would return success, as it could not know
that writeback errors happened (the pages were no longer tagged for
writeback).

One problem that has plagued us is that a user will use up all of his space with
data, remove a bunch of that data, and then try to create a bunch of small files
and run out of space. This happens because all the chunks were allocated for
data since the metadata requirements were so low. But now there's a bunch of
empty data block groups and not enough metadata space to do anything. This
patch solves this problem by automatically deleting empty block groups. If we
notice the used count go down to 0 when deleting or on mount notice that a block
group has a used count of 0 then we will queue it to be deleted.
When the cleaner thread runs we will double check to make sure the block group
is still empty and then we will delete it. This patch has the side effect of no
longer having a bunch of BUG_ON()'s in the chunk delete code, which will be
helpful for both this and relocate. Thanks,

This patch implement data repair function when direct read fails.
The detail of the implementation is:
- When we find the data is not right, we try to read the data from the other
mirror.
- When the io on the mirror ends, we will insert the endio work into the
dedicated btrfs workqueue, not common read endio workqueue, because the
original endio work is still blocked in the btrfs endio workqueue, if we
insert the endio work of the io on the mirror into that workqueue, deadlock
would happen.
- After we get right data, we write it back to the corrupted mirror.
- And if the data on the new mirror is still corrupted, we will try next
mirror until we read right data or all the mirrors are traversed.
- After the above work, we set the uptodate flag according to the result.

This has been reported and discussed for a long time, and this hang occurs in
both 3.15 and 3.16.
Btrfs now migrates to use kernel workqueue, but it introduces this hang problem.
Btrfs has a kind of work queued as an ordered way, which means that its
ordered_func() must be processed in the way of FIFO, so it usually looks like --
normal_work_helper(arg)
work = container_of(arg, struct btrfs_work, normal_work);
work->func() <---- (we name it work X)
for ordered_work in wq->ordered_list
ordered_work->ordered_func()
ordered_work->ordered_free()
The hang is a rare case, first when we find free space, we get an uncached block
group, then we go to read its free space cache inode for free space information,
so it will
file a readahead request
btrfs_readpages()
for page that is not in page cache
__do_readpage()
submit_extent_page()
btrfs_submit_bio_hook()
btrfs_bio_wq_end_io()
submit_bio()
end_workqueue_bio() <--(ret by the 1st endio)
queue a work(named work Y) for the 2nd
also the real endio()
So the hang occurs when work Y's work_struct and work X's work_struct happens
to share the same address.
A bit more explanation,
A,B,C -- struct btrfs_work
arg -- struct work_struct
kthread:
worker_thread()
pick up a work_struct from @worklist
process_one_work(arg)
worker->current_work = arg; <-- arg is A->normal_work
worker->current_func(arg)
normal_work_helper(arg)
A = container_of(arg, struct btrfs_work, normal_work);
A->func()
A->ordered_func()
A->ordered_free() <-- A gets freed
B->ordered_func()
submit_compressed_extents()
find_free_extent()
load_free_space_inode()
... <-- (the above readhead stack)
end_workqueue_bio()
btrfs_queue_work(work C)
B->ordered_free()
As if work A has a high priority in wq->ordered_list and there are more ordered
works queued after it, such as B->ordered_func(), its memory could have been
freed before normal_work_helper() returns, which means that kernel workqueue
code worker_thread() still has worker->current_work pointer to be work
A->normal_work's, ie. arg's address.
Meanwhile, work C is allocated after work A is freed, work C->normal_work
and work A->normal_work are likely to share the same address(I confirmed this
with ftrace output, so I'm not just guessing, it's rare though).
When another kthread picks up work C->normal_work to process, and finds our
kthread is processing it(see find_worker_executing_work()), it'll think
work C as a collision and skip then, which ends up nobody processing work C.
So the situation is that our kthread is waiting forever on work C.
Besides, there're other cases that can lead to deadlock, but the real problem
is that all btrfs workqueue shares one work->func, -- normal_work_helper,
so this makes each workqueue to have its own helper function, but only a
wraper pf normal_work_helper.
With this patch, I no long hit the above hang.

total_bytes of device is just a in-memory variant which is used to record
the size of the device, and it might be changed before we resize a device,
if the resize operation fails, it will be fallbacked. But some code used it
to update on-disk metadata of the device, it would cause the problem that
on-disk metadata of the devices was not consistent. We should use the other
variant named disk_total_bytes to update the on-disk metadata of device,
because that variant is updated only when the resize operation is successful.

Truncates and renames are often used to replace old versions of a file
with new versions. Applications often expect this to be an atomic
replacement, even if they haven't done anything to make sure the new
version is fully on disk.
Btrfs has strict flushing in place to make sure that renaming over an
old file with a new file will fully flush out the new file before
allowing the transaction commit with the rename to complete.
This ordering means the commit code needs to be able to lock file pages,
and there are a few paths in the filesystem where we will try to end a
transaction with the page lock held. It's rare, but these things can
deadlock.
This patch removes the ordered flushes and switches to a best effort
filemap_flush like ext4 uses. It's not perfect, but it should fix the
deadlocks.

Currently qgroups account for space by intercepting delayed ref updates to fs
trees. It does this by adding sequence numbers to delayed ref updates so that
it can figure out how the tree looked before the update so we can adjust the
counters properly. The problem with this is that it does not allow delayed refs
to be merged, so if you say are defragging an extent with 5k snapshots pointing
to it we will thrash the delayed ref lock because we need to go back and
manually merge these things together. Instead we want to process quota changes
when we know they are going to happen, like when we first allocate an extent, we
free a reference for an extent, we add new references etc. This patch
accomplishes this by only adding qgroup operations for real ref changes. We
only modify the sequence number when we need to lookup roots for bytenrs, this
reduces the amount of churn on the sequence number and allows us to merge
delayed refs as we add them most of the time. This patch encompasses a bunch of
architectural changes
1) qgroup ref operations: instead of tracking qgroup operations through the
delayed refs we simply add new ref operations whenever we notice that we need to
when we've modified the refs themselves.
2) tree mod seq: we no longer have this separation of major/minor counters.
this makes the sequence number stuff much more sane and we can remove some
locking that was needed to protect the counter.
3) delayed ref seq: we now read the tree mod seq number and use that as our
sequence. This means each new delayed ref doesn't have it's own unique sequence
number, rather whenever we go to lookup backrefs we inc the sequence number so
we can make sure to keep any new operations from screwing up our world view at
that given point. This allows us to merge delayed refs during runtime.
With all of these changes the delayed ref stuff is a little saner and the qgroup
accounting stuff no longer goes negative in some cases like it was before.

Before applying this patch, the task had to reclaim the metadata space
by itself if the metadata space was not enough. And When the task started
the space reclamation, all the other tasks which wanted to reserve the
metadata space were blocked. At some cases, they would be blocked for
a long time, it made the performance fluctuate wildly.
So we introduce the background metadata space reclamation, when the space
is about to be exhausted, we insert a reclaim work into the workqueue, the
worker of the workqueue helps us to reclaim the reserved space at the
background. By this way, the tasks needn't reclaim the space by themselves at
most cases, and even if the tasks have to reclaim the space or are blocked
for the space reclamation, they will get enough space more quickly.
