A user reported some unpleasant behavior with very small file systems.
The reproducer is this
$ mkfs.btrfs -f -m single -b 8g /dev/vdb
$ mount /dev/vdb /mnt/test
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/test/testfile bs=512M count=20
This will result in usage that looks like this
Overall:
Device size: 8.00GiB
Device allocated: 8.00GiB
Device unallocated: 1.00MiB
Device missing: 0.00B
Device slack: 2.00GiB
Used: 5.47GiB
Free (estimated): 2.52GiB (min: 2.52GiB)
Free (statfs, df): 0.00B
Data ratio: 1.00
Metadata ratio: 1.00
Global reserve: 5.50MiB (used: 0.00B)
Multiple profiles: no
Data,single: Size:7.99GiB, Used:5.46GiB (68.41%)
/dev/vdb 7.99GiB
Metadata,single: Size:8.00MiB, Used:5.77MiB (72.07%)
/dev/vdb 8.00MiB
System,single: Size:4.00MiB, Used:16.00KiB (0.39%)
/dev/vdb 4.00MiB
Unallocated:
/dev/vdb 1.00MiB
As you can see we've gotten ourselves quite full with metadata, with all
of the disk being allocated for data.
On smaller file systems there's not a lot of time before we get full, so
our overcommit behavior bites us here. Generally speaking data
reservations result in chunk allocations as we assume reservation ==
actual use for data. This means at any point we could end up with a
chunk allocation for data, and if we're very close to full we could do
this before we have a chance to figure out that we need another metadata
chunk.
Address this by adjusting the overcommit logic. Simply put we need to
take away 1 chunk from the available chunk space in case of a data
reservation. This will allow us to stop overcommitting before we
potentially lose this space to a data allocation. With this fix in
place we properly allocate a metadata chunk before we're completely
full, allowing for enough slack space in metadata.

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.
