mainlining shenanigans
8eaf40c0e2
If a task is removing the block group that currently has the highest start
offset amongst all existing block groups, there is a short time window
where it races with a concurrent block group allocation, resulting in a
transaction abort with an error code of EEXIST.
The following diagram explains the race in detail:
Task A Task B
btrfs_remove_block_group(bg offset X)
remove_extent_mapping(em offset X)
-> removes extent map X from the
tree of extent maps
(fs_info->mapping_tree), so the
next call to find_next_chunk()
will return offset X
btrfs_alloc_chunk()
find_next_chunk()
--> returns offset X
__btrfs_alloc_chunk(offset X)
btrfs_make_block_group()
btrfs_create_block_group_cache()
--> creates btrfs_block_group_cache
object with a key corresponding
to the block group item in the
extent, the key is:
(offset X, BTRFS_BLOCK_GROUP_ITEM_KEY, 1G)
--> adds the btrfs_block_group_cache object
to the list new_bgs of the transaction
handle
btrfs_end_transaction(trans handle)
__btrfs_end_transaction()
btrfs_create_pending_block_groups()
--> sees the new btrfs_block_group_cache
in the new_bgs list of the transaction
handle
--> its call to btrfs_insert_item() fails
with -EEXIST when attempting to insert
the block group item key
(offset X, BTRFS_BLOCK_GROUP_ITEM_KEY, 1G)
because task A has not removed that key yet
--> aborts the running transaction with
error -EEXIST
btrfs_del_item()
-> removes the block group's key from
the extent tree, key is
(offset X, BTRFS_BLOCK_GROUP_ITEM_KEY, 1G)

Fix this by calling remove_extent_mapping(), at btrfs_remove_block_group(),
only at the very end, after removing the block group item key from the
extent tree (and removing the free space tree entry if we are using the
free space tree feature).

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.
