A RWF_NOWAIT write is not supposed to wait on filesystem locks that can be
held for a long time or for ongoing IO to complete.
However when calling check_can_nocow(), if the inode has prealloc extents
or has the NOCOW flag set, we can block on extent (file range) locks
through the call to btrfs_lock_and_flush_ordered_range(). Such lock can
take a significant amount of time to be available. For example, a fiemap
task may be running, and iterating through the entire file range checking
all extents and doing backref walking to determine if they are shared,
or a readpage operation may be in progress.
Also at btrfs_lock_and_flush_ordered_range(), called by check_can_nocow(),
after locking the file range we wait for any existing ordered extent that
is in progress to complete. Another operation that can take a significant
amount of time and defeat the purpose of RWF_NOWAIT.
So fix this by trying to lock the file range and if it's currently locked
return -EAGAIN to user space. If we are able to lock the file range without
waiting and there is an ordered extent in the range, return -EAGAIN as
well, instead of waiting for it to complete. Finally, don't bother trying
to lock the snapshot lock of the root when attempting a RWF_NOWAIT write,
as that is only important for buffered writes.

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.
