btrfs: stop copying old file extents when doing a full fsync

When logging an inode in full sync mode, we go over every leaf that was
modified in the current transaction and has items associated to our inode,
and then copy all those items into the log tree. This includes copying
file extent items that were created and added to the inode in past
transactions, which is useless and only makes use more leaf space in the
log tree.

It's common to have a file with many file extent items spanning many
leaves where only a few file extent items are new and need to be logged,
and in such case we log all the file extent items we find in the modified
leaves.

So change the full sync behaviour to skip over file extent items that are
not needed. Those are the ones that match the following criteria:

1) Have a generation older than the current transaction and the inode
   was not a target of a reflink operation, as that can copy file extent
   items from a past generation from some other inode into our inode, so
   we have to log them;

2) Start at an offset within i_size - we must log anything at or beyond
   i_size, otherwise we would lose prealloc extents after log replay.

The following script exercises a scenario where this happens, and it's
somehow close enough to what happened often on a SQL Server workload which
I had to debug sometime ago to fix an issue where a pattern of writes to
prealloc extents and fsync resulted in fsync failing with -EIO (that was
commit ea7036de0d ("btrfs: fix fsync failure and transaction abort
after writes to prealloc extents")). In that particular case, we had large
files that had random writes and were often truncated, which made the
next fsync be a full sync.

  $ cat test.sh
  #!/bin/bash

  DEV=/dev/sdi
  MNT=/mnt/sdi

  MKFS_OPTIONS="-O no-holes -R free-space-tree"
  MOUNT_OPTIONS="-o ssd"

  FILE_SIZE=$((1 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024)) # 1G
  # FILE_SIZE=$((2 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024)) # 2G
  # FILE_SIZE=$((512 * 1024 * 1024)) # 512M

  mkfs.btrfs -f $MKFS_OPTIONS $DEV
  mount $MOUNT_OPTIONS $DEV $MNT

  # Create a file with many extents. Use direct IO to make it faster
  # to create the file - using buffered IO we would have to fsync
  # after each write (terribly slow).
  echo "Creating file with $((FILE_SIZE / 4096)) extents of 4K each..."
  xfs_io -f -d -c "pwrite -b 4K 0 $FILE_SIZE" $MNT/foobar

  # Commit the transaction, so every extent after this is from an
  # old generation.
  sync

  # Now rewrite only a few extents, which are all far spread apart from
  # each other (e.g. 1G / 32M = 32 extents).
  # After this only a few extents have a new generation, while all other
  # ones have an old generation.
  echo "Rewriting $((FILE_SIZE / (32 * 1024 * 1024))) extents..."
  for ((i = 0; i < $FILE_SIZE; i += $((32 * 1024 * 1024)))); do
      xfs_io -c "pwrite $i 4K" $MNT/foobar >/dev/null
  done

  # Fsync, the inode logged in full sync mode since it was never fsynced
  # before.
  echo "Fsyncing file..."
  xfs_io -c "fsync" $MNT/foobar

  umount $MNT

And the following bpftrace program was running when executing the test
script:

  $ cat bpf-script.sh
  #!/usr/bin/bpftrace

  k:btrfs_log_inode
  {
      @start_log_inode[tid] = nsecs;
  }

  kr:btrfs_log_inode
  /@start_log_inode[tid]/
  {
      @log_inode_dur[tid] = (nsecs - @start_log_inode[tid]) / 1000;
      delete(@start_log_inode[tid]);
  }

  k:btrfs_sync_log
  {
      @start_sync_log[tid] = nsecs;
  }

  kr:btrfs_sync_log
  /@start_sync_log[tid]/
  {
      $sync_log_dur = (nsecs - @start_sync_log[tid]) / 1000;
      printf("btrfs_log_inode() took %llu us\n", @log_inode_dur[tid]);
      printf("btrfs_sync_log()  took %llu us\n", $sync_log_dur);
      delete(@start_sync_log[tid]);
      delete(@log_inode_dur[tid]);
      exit();
  }
