The way relocation moves data extents is by creating a reloc inode and
preallocating extents in this inode and then copying the data into these
preallocated extents.  Once we've done this for all of our extents,
we'll write out these dirty pages, which marks the extent written, and
goes into btrfs_reloc_cow_block().  From here we get our current
reloc_control, which _should_ match the reloc_control for the current
block group we're relocating.

However if we get an ENOSPC in this path at some point we'll bail out,
never initiating writeback on this inode.  Not a huge deal, unless we
happen to be doing relocation on a different block group, and this block
group is now rc-&gt;stage == UPDATE_DATA_PTRS.  This trips the BUG_ON() in
btrfs_reloc_cow_block(), because we expect to be done modifying the data
inode.  We are in fact done modifying the metadata for the data inode
we're currently using, but not the one from the failed block group, and
thus we BUG_ON().

(This happens when writeback finishes for extents from the previous
group, when we are at btrfs_finish_ordered_io() which updates the data
reloc tree (inode item, drops/adds extent items, etc).)

Fix this by writing out the reloc data inode always, and then breaking
out of the loop after that point to keep from tripping this BUG_ON()
later.

<title>Btrfs: prevent ioctls from interfering with a swap file</title>
<updated>2018-12-17T13:51:29+00:00</updated>

<id>eede2bf34f4fa84ce82e36878ccdd0fdc4b1463c</id>
<content type='text'>
A later patch will implement swap file support for Btrfs, but before we
do that, we need to make sure that the various Btrfs ioctls cannot
change a swap file.

When a swap file is active, we must make sure that the extents of the
file are not moved and that they don't become shared. That means that
the following are not safe:

- chattr +c (enable compression)
- reflink
- dedupe
- snapshot
- defrag

Don't allow those to happen on an active swap file.

Additionally, balance, resize, device remove, and device replace are
also unsafe if they affect an active swapfile. Add a red-black tree of
block groups and devices which contain an active swapfile. Relocation
checks each block group against this tree and skips it or errors out for
balance or resize, respectively. Device remove and device replace check
the tree for the device they will operate on.

Note that we don't have to worry about chattr -C (disable nocow), which
we ignore for non-empty files, because an active swapfile must be
non-empty and can't be truncated. We also don't have to worry about
autodefrag because it's only done on COW files. Truncate and fallocate
are already taken care of by the generic code. Device add doesn't do
relocation so it's not an issue, either.

<title>btrfs: relocation: set trans to be NULL after ending transaction</title>

<id>42a657f57628402c73237547f0134e083e2f6764</id>
<content type='text'>
The function relocate_block_group calls btrfs_end_transaction to release
trans when update_backref_cache returns 1, and then continues the loop
body. If btrfs_block_rsv_refill fails this time, it will jump out the
loop and the freed trans will be accessed. This may result in a
use-after-free bug. The patch assigns NULL to trans after trans is
released so that it will not be accessed.

Commit 581c1760415c ("btrfs: Validate child tree block's level and first

So if tree block level doesn't match, we won't get a valid extent
buffer.  The extra WARN_ON() check can be removed completely.

<title>btrfs: qgroup: Only trace data extents in leaves if we're relocating data block group</title>

<content type='text'>
For qgroup_trace_extent_swap(), if we find one leaf that needs to be
traced, we will also iterate all file extents and trace them.

This is OK if we're relocating data block groups, but if we're
relocating metadata block groups, balance code itself has ensured that
both subtree of file tree and reloc tree contain the same contents.

That's to say, if we're relocating metadata block groups, all file
extents in reloc and file tree should match, thus no need to trace them.
This should reduce the total number of dirty extents processed in metadata
block group balance.

[[Benchmark]] (with all previous enhancement)
Hardware:
	VM 4G vRAM, 8 vCPUs,
	disk is using 'unsafe' cache mode,
	backing device is SAMSUNG 850 evo SSD.
	Host has 16G ram.

Mkfs parameter:
	--nodesize 4K (To bump up tree size)

Initial subvolume contents:
	4G data copied from /usr and /lib.
	(With enough regular small files)

Snapshots:
	16 snapshots of the original subvolume.
	each snapshot has 3 random files modified.

balance parameter:
	-m

So the content should be pretty similar to a real world root fs layout.

relocating metadata block groups, balance code itself has ensured that
both subtree of file tree and reloc tree contain the same contents.

That's to say, if we're relocating metadata block groups, all file
extents in reloc and file tree should match, thus no need to trace them.
This should reduce the total number of dirty extents processed in metadata
block group balance.

[[Benchmark]] (with all previous enhancement)
Hardware:
	VM 4G vRAM, 8 vCPUs,
	disk is using 'unsafe' cache mode,
	backing device is SAMSUNG 850 evo SSD.
	Host has 16G ram.

Mkfs parameter:
	--nodesize 4K (To bump up tree size)

Initial subvolume contents:
	4G data copied from /usr and /lib.
	(With enough regular small files)

Snapshots:
	16 snapshots of the original subvolume.
	each snapshot has 3 random files modified.

balance parameter:
	-m

So the content should be pretty similar to a real world root fs layout.

Before this patch, with quota enabled during balance, we need to mark
the whole subtree dirty for quota.

E.g.
OO = Old tree blocks (from file tree)
NN = New tree blocks (from reloc tree)

        File tree (src)		          Reloc tree (dst)
            OO (a)                              NN (a)
           /  \                                /  \
     (b) OO    OO (c)                    (b) NN    NN (c)
        /  \  /  \                          /  \  /  \
       OO  OO OO OO (d)                    OO  OO OO NN (d)

For old balance + quota case, quota will mark the whole src and dst tree
dirty, including all the 3 old tree blocks in reloc tree.

It's doable for small file tree or new tree blocks are all located at
lower level.

But for large file tree or new tree blocks are all located at higher
level, this will lead to mark the whole tree dirty, and be unbelievably
slow.

This patch will change how we handle such balance with quota enabled
case.

Now we will search from (b) and (c) for any new tree blocks whose
generation is equal to @last_snapshot, and only mark them dirty.

In above case, we only need to trace tree blocks NN(b), NN(c) and NN(d).
(NN(a) will be traced when COW happens for nodeptr modification).  And
also for tree blocks OO(b), OO(c), OO(d). (OO(a) will be traced when COW
happens for nodeptr modification.)

For above case, we could skip 3 tree blocks, but for larger tree, we can
skip tons of unmodified tree blocks, and hugely speed up balance.

This patch will introduce a new function,
btrfs_qgroup_trace_subtree_swap(), which will do the following main
work:

1) Read out real root eb
   And setup basic dst_path for later calls
2) Call qgroup_trace_new_subtree_blocks()
   To trace all new tree blocks in reloc tree and their counter
   parts in the file tree.

fs/btrfs/relocation.c:build_backref_tree() is some code from 2009 era,
although it works pretty fine, it's not that easy to understand.
Especially combined with the complex btrfs backref format.

This patch adds some basic comment for the backref build part of the
code, making it less hard to read, at least for backref searching part.
