 "Here are two fixes, one of them urgent fixing a bug introduced in 5.2

  The bug is a mess up of return values after adding proper error
  handling and honestly the kind of bug that can cause sleeping
  disorders until it's caught. My appologies to everybody who was
  affected.

  Summary of what could happen:

  1) either a hang when committing a transaction, if this happens
     there's no risk of corruption, still the hang is very inconvenient
     and can't be resolved without a reboot

  2) writeback for some btree nodes may never be started and we end up

     serious and that will lead to the "parent transid verify failed"

The lock_extent_buffer_io() returns 1 to the caller to tell it everything
went fine and the callers needs to start writeback for the extent buffer
(submit a bio, etc), 0 to tell the caller everything went fine but it does
not need to start writeback for the extent buffer, and a negative value if
some error happened.

When it's about to return 1 it tries to lock all pages, and if a try lock
on a page fails, and we didn't flush any existing bio in our "epd", it
calls flush_write_bio(epd) and overwrites the return value of 1 to 0 or
an error. The page might have been locked elsewhere, not with the goal
of starting writeback of the extent buffer, and even by some code other
than btrfs, like page migration for example, so it does not mean the
writeback of the extent buffer was already started by some other task,
so returning a 0 tells the caller (btree_write_cache_pages()) to not
start writeback for the extent buffer. Note that epd might currently have
either no bio, so flush_write_bio() returns 0 (success) or it might have
a bio for another extent buffer with a lower index (logical address).

Since we return 0 with the EXTENT_BUFFER_WRITEBACK bit set on the
extent buffer and writeback is never started for the extent buffer,
future attempts to writeback the extent buffer will hang forever waiting
on that bit to be cleared, since it can only be cleared after writeback
completes. Such hang is reported with a trace like the following:

  [49887.347053] INFO: task btrfs-transacti:1752 blocked for more than 122 seconds.
  [49887.347059]       Not tainted 5.2.13-gentoo #2

So fix this by not overwriting the return value (ret) with the result
from flush_write_bio(). We also need to clear the EXTENT_BUFFER_WRITEBACK
bit in case flush_write_bio() returns an error, otherwise it will hang
any future attempts to writeback the extent buffer, and undo all work
done before (set back EXTENT_BUFFER_DIRTY, etc).

This is a regression introduced in the 5.2 kernel.

<title>Btrfs: fix assertion failure during fsync and use of stale transaction</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux.git/commit/?id=410f954cb1d1c79ae485dd83a175f21954fd87cd'/>
<id>410f954cb1d1c79ae485dd83a175f21954fd87cd</id>
<content type='text'>
Sometimes when fsync'ing a file we need to log that other inodes exist and
when we need to do that we acquire a reference on the inodes and then drop
that reference using iput() after logging them.

That generally is not a problem except if we end up doing the final iput()
(dropping the last reference) on the inode and that inode has a link count
of 0, which can happen in a very short time window if the logging path
gets a reference on the inode while it's being unlinked.

In that case we end up getting the eviction callback, btrfs_evict_inode(),
invoked through the iput() call chain which needs to drop all of the
inode's items from its subvolume btree, and in order to do that, it needs
to join a transaction at the helper function evict_refill_and_join().
However because the task previously started a transaction at the fsync
handler, btrfs_sync_file(), it has current-&gt;journal_info already pointing
to a transaction handle and therefore evict_refill_and_join() will get
that transaction handle from btrfs_join_transaction(). From this point on,
two different problems can happen:

1) evict_refill_and_join() will often change the transaction handle's
   block reserve (-&gt;block_rsv) and set its -&gt;bytes_reserved field to a
   value greater than 0. If evict_refill_and_join() never commits the
   transaction, the eviction handler ends up decreasing the reference
   count (-&gt;use_count) of the transaction handle through the call to
   btrfs_end_transaction(), and after that point we have a transaction
   handle with a NULL -&gt;block_rsv (which is the value prior to the
   transaction join from evict_refill_and_join()) and a -&gt;bytes_reserved
   value greater than 0. If after the eviction/iput completes the inode
   logging path hits an error or it decides that it must fallback to a
   transaction commit, the btrfs fsync handle, btrfs_sync_file(), gets a
   non-zero value from btrfs_log_dentry_safe(), and because of that
   non-zero value it tries to commit the transaction using a handle with
   a NULL -&gt;block_rsv and a non-zero -&gt;bytes_reserved value. This makes
   the transaction commit hit an assertion failure at
   btrfs_trans_release_metadata() because -&gt;bytes_reserved is not zero but
   the -&gt;block_rsv is NULL. The produced stack trace for that is like the
   following:

2) If evict_refill_and_join() decides to commit the transaction, it will
   be able to do it, since the nested transaction join only increments the
   transaction handle's -&gt;use_count reference counter and it does not
   prevent the transaction from getting committed. This means that after
   eviction completes, the fsync logging path will be using a transaction
   handle that refers to an already committed transaction. What happens
   when using such a stale transaction can be unpredictable, we are at
   least having a use-after-free on the transaction handle itself, since
   the transaction commit will call kmem_cache_free() against the handle
   regardless of its -&gt;use_count value, or we can end up silently losing
   all the updates to the log tree after that iput() in the logging path,
   or using a transaction handle that in the meanwhile was allocated to
   another task for a new transaction, etc, pretty much unpredictable
   what can happen.

In order to fix both of them, instead of using iput() during logging, use
btrfs_add_delayed_iput(), so that the logging path of fsync never drops
the last reference on an inode, that step is offloaded to a safe context
(usually the cleaner kthread).

The assertion failure issue was sporadically triggered by the test case
generic/475 from fstests, which loads the dm error target while fsstress
is running, which lead to fsync failing while logging inodes with -EIO
errors and then trying later to commit the transaction, triggering the
assertion failure.

invoked through the iput() call chain which needs to drop all of the
inode's items from its subvolume btree, and in order to do that, it needs
to join a transaction at the helper function evict_refill_and_join().
However because the task previously started a transaction at the fsync
handler, btrfs_sync_file(), it has current-&gt;journal_info already pointing
to a transaction handle and therefore evict_refill_and_join() will get
that transaction handle from btrfs_join_transaction(). From this point on,
two different problems can happen:

1) evict_refill_and_join() will often change the transaction handle's
   block reserve (-&gt;block_rsv) and set its -&gt;bytes_reserved field to a
   value greater than 0. If evict_refill_and_join() never commits the
   transaction, the eviction handler ends up decreasing the reference
   count (-&gt;use_count) of the transaction handle through the call to
   btrfs_end_transaction(), and after that point we have a transaction
   handle with a NULL -&gt;block_rsv (which is the value prior to the
   transaction join from evict_refill_and_join()) and a -&gt;bytes_reserved
   value greater than 0. If after the eviction/iput completes the inode
   logging path hits an error or it decides that it must fallback to a
   transaction commit, the btrfs fsync handle, btrfs_sync_file(), gets a
   non-zero value from btrfs_log_dentry_safe(), and because of that
   non-zero value it tries to commit the transaction using a handle with
   a NULL -&gt;block_rsv and a non-zero -&gt;bytes_reserved value. This makes
   the transaction commit hit an assertion failure at
   btrfs_trans_release_metadata() because -&gt;bytes_reserved is not zero but
   the -&gt;block_rsv is NULL. The produced stack trace for that is like the
   following:

2) If evict_refill_and_join() decides to commit the transaction, it will
   be able to do it, since the nested transaction join only increments the
   transaction handle's -&gt;use_count reference counter and it does not
   prevent the transaction from getting committed. This means that after
   eviction completes, the fsync logging path will be using a transaction
   handle that refers to an already committed transaction. What happens
   when using such a stale transaction can be unpredictable, we are at
   least having a use-after-free on the transaction handle itself, since
   the transaction commit will call kmem_cache_free() against the handle
   regardless of its -&gt;use_count value, or we can end up silently losing
   all the updates to the log tree after that iput() in the logging path,
   or using a transaction handle that in the meanwhile was allocated to
   another task for a new transaction, etc, pretty much unpredictable
   what can happen.

In order to fix both of them, instead of using iput() during logging, use
btrfs_add_delayed_iput(), so that the logging path of fsync never drops
the last reference on an inode, that step is offloaded to a safe context
(usually the cleaner kthread).

The assertion failure issue was sporadically triggered by the test case
generic/475 from fstests, which loads the dm error target while fsstress
is running, which lead to fsync failing while logging inodes with -EIO
errors and then trying later to commit the transaction, triggering the
assertion failure.

Normally the range-&gt;len is set to default value (U64_MAX), but when it's
not default value, we should check if the range overflows.

And if it overflows, return -EINVAL before doing anything.

In the 5.3 merge window, commit 7c7e301406d0a9 ("btrfs: sysfs: Replace
default_attrs in ktypes with groups"), we started using the member
"defaults_groups" for the kobject type "btrfs_raid_ktype". That leads
to a series of warnings when running some test cases of fstests, such
as btrfs/027, btrfs/124 and btrfs/176. The traces produced by those
warnings are like the following:

These happen because, during the unmount path, we call kobject_del() for
raid kobjects that are not fully initialized, meaning that we set their
ktype (as btrfs_raid_ktype) through link_block_group() but we didn't set
their parent kobject, which is done through btrfs_add_raid_kobjects().

We have this split raid kobject setup since commit 75cb379d263521
("btrfs: defer adding raid type kobject until after chunk relocation") in
order to avoid triggering reclaim during contextes where we can not
(either we are holding a transaction handle or some lock required by
the transaction commit path), so that we do the calls to kobject_add(),
which triggers GFP_KERNEL allocations, through btrfs_add_raid_kobjects()
in contextes where it is safe to trigger reclaim. That change expected
that a new raid kobject can only be created either when mounting the
filesystem or after raid profile conversion through the relocation path.
However, we can have new raid kobject created in other two cases at least:

1) During device replace (or scrub) after adding a device a to the
   filesystem. The replace procedure (and scrub) do calls to
   btrfs_inc_block_group_ro() which can allocate a new block group
   with a new raid profile (because we now have more devices). This
   can be triggered by test cases btrfs/027 and btrfs/176.

2) During a degraded mount trough any write path. This can be triggered
   by test case btrfs/124.

Fixing this by adding extra calls to btrfs_add_raid_kobjects(), not only
makes things more complex and fragile, can also introduce deadlocks with
reclaim the following way:

1) Calling btrfs_add_raid_kobjects() at btrfs_inc_block_group_ro() or
   anywhere in the replace/scrub path will cause a deadlock with reclaim
   because if reclaim happens and a transaction commit is triggered,
   the transaction commit path will block at btrfs_scrub_pause().

2) During degraded mounts it is essentially impossible to figure out where
   to add extra calls to btrfs_add_raid_kobjects(), because allocation of
   a block group with a new raid profile can happen anywhere, which means
   we can't safely figure out which contextes are safe for reclaim, as
   we can either hold a transaction handle or some lock needed by the
   transaction commit path.

So it is too complex and error prone to have this split setup of raid
kobjects. So fix the issue by consolidating the setup of the kobjects in a
single place, at link_block_group(), and setup a nofs context there in
order to prevent reclaim being triggered by the memory allocations done
through the call chain of kobject_add().

Besides fixing the sysfs warnings during kobject_del(), this also ensures
the sysfs directories for the new raid profiles end up created and visible
to users (a bug that existed before the 5.3 commit 7c7e301406d0a9
("btrfs: sysfs: Replace default_attrs in ktypes with groups")).

In the 5.3 merge window, commit 7c7e301406d0a9 ("btrfs: sysfs: Replace
default_attrs in ktypes with groups"), we started using the member
"defaults_groups" for the kobject type "btrfs_raid_ktype". That leads
to a series of warnings when running some test cases of fstests, such
as btrfs/027, btrfs/124 and btrfs/176. The traces produced by those
warnings are like the following:

These happen because, during the unmount path, we call kobject_del() for
raid kobjects that are not fully initialized, meaning that we set their
ktype (as btrfs_raid_ktype) through link_block_group() but we didn't set
their parent kobject, which is done through btrfs_add_raid_kobjects().

We have this split raid kobject setup since commit 75cb379d263521
("btrfs: defer adding raid type kobject until after chunk relocation") in
order to avoid triggering reclaim during contextes where we can not
(either we are holding a transaction handle or some lock required by
the transaction commit path), so that we do the calls to kobject_add(),
which triggers GFP_KERNEL allocations, through btrfs_add_raid_kobjects()
in contextes where it is safe to trigger reclaim. That change expected
that a new raid kobject can only be created either when mounting the
filesystem or after raid profile conversion through the relocation path.
However, we can have new raid kobject created in other two cases at least:

1) During device replace (or scrub) after adding a device a to the
   filesystem. The replace procedure (and scrub) do calls to
   btrfs_inc_block_group_ro() which can allocate a new block group
   with a new raid profile (because we now have more devices). This
   can be triggered by test cases btrfs/027 and btrfs/176.

2) During a degraded mount trough any write path. This can be triggered
   by test case btrfs/124.

Fixing this by adding extra calls to btrfs_add_raid_kobjects(), not only
makes things more complex and fragile, can also introduce deadlocks with
reclaim the following way:

1) Calling btrfs_add_raid_kobjects() at btrfs_inc_block_group_ro() or
   anywhere in the replace/scrub path will cause a deadlock with reclaim
   because if reclaim happens and a transaction commit is triggered,
   the transaction commit path will block at btrfs_scrub_pause().

2) During degraded mounts it is essentially impossible to figure out where
   to add extra calls to btrfs_add_raid_kobjects(), because allocation of
   a block group with a new raid profile can happen anywhere, which means
   we can't safely figure out which contextes are safe for reclaim, as
   we can either hold a transaction handle or some lock needed by the
   transaction commit path.

So it is too complex and error prone to have this split setup of raid
kobjects. So fix the issue by consolidating the setup of the kobjects in a
single place, at link_block_group(), and setup a nofs context there in
order to prevent reclaim being triggered by the memory allocations done
through the call chain of kobject_add().

Besides fixing the sysfs warnings during kobject_del(), this also ensures
the sysfs directories for the new raid profiles end up created and visible
to users (a bug that existed before the 5.3 commit 7c7e301406d0a9
("btrfs: sysfs: Replace default_attrs in ktypes with groups")).

The fiemap handler locks a file range that can have unflushed delalloc,
and after locking the range, it tries to attach to a running transaction.
If the running transaction started its commit, that is, it is in state
TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_START, and either the filesystem was mounted with the
flushoncommit option or the transaction is creating a snapshot for the
subvolume that contains the file that fiemap is operating on, we end up
deadlocking. This happens because fiemap is blocked on the transaction,
waiting for it to complete, and the transaction is waiting for the flushed
dealloc to complete, which requires locking the file range that the fiemap
task already locked. The following stack traces serve as an example of
when this deadlock happens:

If we were joining the transaction instead of attaching to it, we would
not risk a deadlock because a join only blocks if the transaction is in a
state greater then or equals to TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_DOING, and the delalloc
flush performed by a transaction is done before it reaches that state,
when it is in the state TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_START. However a transaction
join is intended for use cases where we do modify the filesystem, and
fiemap only needs to peek at delayed references from the current
transaction in order to determine if extents are shared, and, besides
that, when there is no current transaction or when it blocks to wait for
a current committing transaction to complete, it creates a new transaction
without reserving any space. Such unnecessary transactions, besides doing
unnecessary IO, can cause transaction aborts (-ENOSPC) and unnecessary
rotation of the precious backup roots.

So fix this by adding a new transaction join variant, named join_nostart,
which behaves like the regular join, but it does not create a transaction
when none currently exists or after waiting for a committing transaction
to complete.

The fiemap handler locks a file range that can have unflushed delalloc,
and after locking the range, it tries to attach to a running transaction.
If the running transaction started its commit, that is, it is in state
TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_START, and either the filesystem was mounted with the
flushoncommit option or the transaction is creating a snapshot for the
subvolume that contains the file that fiemap is operating on, we end up
deadlocking. This happens because fiemap is blocked on the transaction,
waiting for it to complete, and the transaction is waiting for the flushed
dealloc to complete, which requires locking the file range that the fiemap
task already locked. The following stack traces serve as an example of
when this deadlock happens:

When one transaction is finishing its commit, it is possible for another
transaction to start and enter its initial commit phase as well. If the
first ends up getting aborted, we have a small time window where the second
transaction commit does not notice that the previous transaction aborted
and ends up committing, writing a superblock that points to btrees that
reference extent buffers (nodes and leafs) that were not persisted to disk.
The consequence is that after mounting the filesystem again, we will be
unable to load some btree nodes/leafs, either because the content on disk
is either garbage (or just zeroes) or corresponds to the old content of a
previouly COWed or deleted node/leaf, resulting in the well known error
messages "parent transid verify failed on ...".
The following sequence diagram illustrates how this can happen.

                                                           --&gt; we now have a superblock on
                                                               disk that points to trees
                                                               that refer to at least one
                                                               extent buffer that was
                                                               never persisted

So fix this by updating the transaction commit path to check if the flag
BTRFS_FS_STATE_TRANS_ABORTED is set on fs_info-&gt;fs_state if after setting
the transaction to the TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_START we do not find any previous
transaction in the fs_info-&gt;trans_list. If the flag is set, just fail the
transaction commit with -EROFS, as we do in other places. The exact error
code for the previous transaction abort was already logged and reported.

                                                           --&gt; we now have a superblock on
                                                               disk that points to trees
                                                               that refer to at least one
                                                               extent buffer that was
                                                               never persisted

So fix this by updating the transaction commit path to check if the flag
BTRFS_FS_STATE_TRANS_ABORTED is set on fs_info-&gt;fs_state if after setting
the transaction to the TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_START we do not find any previous
transaction in the fs_info-&gt;trans_list. If the flag is set, just fail the
transaction commit with -EROFS, as we do in other places. The exact error
code for the previous transaction abort was already logged and reported.

<title>Btrfs: fix incremental send failure after deduplication</title>

When doing an incremental send operation we can fail if we previously did
deduplication operations against a file that exists in both snapshots. In
that case we will fail the send operation with -EIO and print a message
to dmesg/syslog like the following:

  BTRFS error (device sdc): Send: inconsistent snapshot, found updated \
  extent for inode 257 without updated inode item, send root is 258, \
  parent root is 257

This requires that we deduplicate to the same file in both snapshots for
the same amount of times on each snapshot. The issue happens because a
deduplication only updates the iversion of an inode and does not update
any other field of the inode, therefore if we deduplicate the file on
each snapshot for the same amount of time, the inode will have the same
iversion value (stored as the "sequence" field on the inode item) on both
snapshots, therefore it will be seen as unchanged between in the send
snapshot while there are new/updated/deleted extent items when comparing
to the parent snapshot. This makes the send operation return -EIO and
print an error message.

Example reproducer:

  $ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdb
  $ mount /dev/sdb /mnt

  # Create our first file. The first half of the file has several 64Kb
  # extents while the second half as a single 512Kb extent.
  $ xfs_io -f -s -c "pwrite -S 0xb8 -b 64K 0 512K" /mnt/foo
  $ xfs_io -c "pwrite -S 0xb8 512K 512K" /mnt/foo

  # Create the base snapshot and the parent send stream from it.
  $ btrfs subvolume snapshot -r /mnt /mnt/mysnap1
  $ btrfs send -f /tmp/1.snap /mnt/mysnap1

  # Create our second file, that has exactly the same data as the first
  # file.
  $ xfs_io -f -c "pwrite -S 0xb8 0 1M" /mnt/bar

  # Create the second snapshot, used for the incremental send, before
  # doing the file deduplication.
  $ btrfs subvolume snapshot -r /mnt /mnt/mysnap2

  # Now before creating the incremental send stream:
  #
  # 1) Deduplicate into a subrange of file foo in snapshot mysnap1. This
  #    will drop several extent items and add a new one, also updating
  #    the inode's iversion (sequence field in inode item) by 1, but not
  #    any other field of the inode;
  #
  # 2) Deduplicate into a different subrange of file foo in snapshot
  #    mysnap2. This will replace an extent item with a new one, also
  #    updating the inode's iversion by 1 but not any other field of the
  #    inode.
  #
  # After these two deduplication operations, the inode items, for file
  # foo, are identical in both snapshots, but we have different extent
  # items for this inode in both snapshots. We want to check this doesn't
  # cause send to fail with an error or produce an incorrect stream.

  $ xfs_io -r -c "dedupe /mnt/bar 0 0 512K" /mnt/mysnap1/foo
  $ xfs_io -r -c "dedupe /mnt/bar 512K 512K 512K" /mnt/mysnap2/foo

  # Create the incremental send stream.
  $ btrfs send -p /mnt/mysnap1 -f /tmp/2.snap /mnt/mysnap2
  ERROR: send ioctl failed with -5: Input/output error

This issue started happening back in 2015 when deduplication was updated
to not update the inode's ctime and mtime and update only the iversion.
Back then we would hit a BUG_ON() in send, but later in 2016 send was
updated to return -EIO and print the error message instead of doing the
BUG_ON().

A test case for fstests follows soon.
