mainlining shenanigans
f7ef5287a6
When a bad checksum is found and if the filesystem has a mirror of the
damaged data, we read the correct data from the mirror and writes it to
damaged blocks. This however, violates the sequential write constraints
of a zoned block device.
We can consider three methods to repair an IO failure in zoned filesystems:
(1) Reset and rewrite the damaged zone
(2) Allocate new device extent and replace the damaged device extent to
the new extent
(3) Relocate the corresponding block group
Method (1) is most similar to a behavior done with regular devices.
However, it also wipes non-damaged data in the same device extent, and
so it unnecessary degrades non-damaged data.
Method (2) is much like device replacing but done in the same device. It
is safe because it keeps the device extent until the replacing finish.
However, extending device replacing is non-trivial. It assumes
"src_dev->physical == dst_dev->physical". Also, the extent mapping
replacing function should be extended to support replacing device extent
position in one device.
Method (3) invokes relocation of the damaged block group and is
straightforward to implement. It relocates all the mirrored device
extents, so it potentially is a more costly operation than method (1) or
(2). But it relocates only used extents which reduce the total IO size.
Let's apply method (3) for now. In the future, we can extend device-replace
and apply method (2).
For protecting a block group gets relocated multiple time with multiple
IO errors, this commit introduces "relocating_repair" bit to show it's
now relocating to repair IO failures. Also it uses a new kthread
"btrfs-relocating-repair", not to block IO path with relocating process.
This commit also supports repairing in the scrub process.

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.
