In xfs_reflink_end_cow, we allocate a single transaction for the entire
end_cow operation and then loop the CoW fork mappings to move them to
the data fork. This design fails on a heavily fragmented filesystem
where an inode's data fork has exactly one more extent than would fit in
an extents-format fork, because the unmap can collapse the data fork
into extents format (freeing the bmbt block) but the remap can expand
the data fork back into a (newly allocated) bmbt block. If the number
of extents we end up remapping is large, we can overflow the block
reservation because we reserved blocks assuming that we were adding
mappings into an already-cleared area of the data fork.
Let's say we have 8 extents in the data fork, 8 extents in the CoW fork,
and the data fork can hold at most 7 extents before needing to convert
to btree format; and that blocks A-P are discontiguous single-block
extents:
0......7
D: ABCDEFGH
C: IJKLMNOP
When a write to file blocks 0-7 completes, we must remap I-P into the
data fork. We start by removing H from the btree-format data fork. Now
we have 7 extents, so we convert the fork to extents format, freeing the
bmbt block. We then move P into the data fork and it now has 8 extents
again. We must convert the data fork back to btree format, requiring a
block allocation. If we repeat this sequence for blocks 6-5-4-3-2-1-0,
we'll need a total of 8 block allocations to remap all 8 blocks. We
reserved only enough blocks to handle one btree split (5 blocks on a 4k
block filesystem), which means we overflow the block reservation.
To fix this issue, create a separate helper function to remap a single
extent, and change _reflink_end_cow to call it in a tight loop over the
entire range we're completing. As a side effect this also removes the
size restrictions on how many extents we can end_cow at a time, though
nobody ever hit that. It is not reasonable to reserve N blocks to remap
N blocks.
Note that this can be reproduced after ~320 million fsx ops while
running generic/938 (long soak directio fsx exerciser):
