<id>urn:sha1:1bbb97b8ce7ddf3a56645636c905cef706706dd9</id>

[BUG]
For dev-replace test cases with fsstress, like btrfs/06[45] btrfs/071,
looped runs can lead to random failure, where scrub finds csum error.

The possibility is not high, around 1/20 to 1/100, but it's causing data
corruption.

The bug is observable after commit b12de52896c0 ("btrfs: scrub: Don't
check free space before marking a block group RO")

[CAUSE]
Dev-replace has two source of writes:

- Write duplication
  All writes to source device will also be duplicated to target device.

  Content:	Not yet persisted data/meta

- Scrub copy
  Dev-replace reused scrub code to iterate through existing extents, and
  copy the verified data to target device.

  Content:	Previously persisted data and metadata

The difference in contents makes the following race possible:
	Regular Writer		|	Dev-replace
-----------------------------------------------------------------
  ^                             |
  | Preallocate one data extent |
  | at bytenr X, len 1M		|
  v				|
  ^ Commit transaction		|
  | Now extent [X, X+1M) is in  |
  v commit root			|
 ================== Dev replace starts =========================
  				| ^
				| | Scrub extent [X, X+1M)
				| | Read [X, X+1M)
				| | (The content are mostly garbage
				| |  since it's preallocated)
  ^				| v
  | Write back happens for	|
  | extent [X, X+512K)		|
  | New data writes to both	|
  | source and target dev.	|
  v				|
				| ^
				| | Scrub writes back extent [X, X+1M)
				| | to target device.
				| | This will over write the new data in
				| | [X, X+512K)
				| v

This race can only happen for nocow writes. Thus metadata and data cow
writes are safe, as COW will never overwrite extents of previous
transaction (in commit root).

This behavior can be confirmed by disabling all fallocate related calls
in fsstress (*), then all related tests can pass a 2000 run loop.

*: FSSTRESS_AVOID="-f fallocate=0 -f allocsp=0 -f zero=0 -f insert=0 \
		   -f collapse=0 -f punch=0 -f resvsp=0"
   I didn't expect resvsp ioctl will fallback to fallocate in VFS...

[FIX]
Make dev-replace to require mandatory block group RO, and wait for current
nocow writes before calling scrub_chunk().

This patch will mostly revert commit 76a8efa171bf ("btrfs: Continue replace
when set_block_ro failed") for dev-replace path.

The side effect is, dev-replace can be more strict on avaialble space, but
definitely worth to avoid data corruption.

<title>Btrfs: fix block group remaining RO forever after error during device replace</title>

<id>urn:sha1:042528f8d840f42903d91d47e28c0e29da90c2d6</id>
<content type='text'>
When doing a device replace, while at scrub.c:scrub_enumerate_chunks(), we
set the block group to RO mode and then wait for any ongoing writes into
extents of the block group to complete. While doing that wait we overwrite
the value of the variable 'ret' and can break out of the loop if an error
happens without turning the block group back into RW mode. So what happens
is the following:

1) btrfs_inc_block_group_ro() returns 0, meaning it set the block group
   to RO mode (its -&gt;ro field set to 1 or incremented to some value &gt; 1);

2) Then btrfs_wait_ordered_roots() returns a value &gt; 0;

3) Then if either joining or committing the transaction fails, we break
   out of the loop wihtout calling btrfs_dec_block_group_ro(), leaving
   the block group in RO mode forever.

To fix this, just remove the code that waits for ongoing writes to extents
of the block group, since it's not needed because in the initial setup
phase of a device replace operation, before starting to find all chunks
and their extents, we set the target device for replace while holding
fs_info-&gt;dev_replace-&gt;rwsem, which ensures that after releasing that
semaphore, any writes into the source device are made to the target device
as well (__btrfs_map_block() guarantees that). So while at
scrub_enumerate_chunks() we only need to worry about finding and copying
extents (from the source device to the target device) that were written
before we started the device replace operation.

[CAUSE]
The error number -27 is -EFBIG, returned from the following call chain:
btrfs_end_transaction()
|- __btrfs_end_transaction()
   |- btrfs_create_pending_block_groups()
      |- btrfs_finish_chunk_alloc()
         |- btrfs_add_system_chunk()

This happens because we have used up all space of
btrfs_super_block::sys_chunk_array.

The root cause is, we have the following bad loop of creating tons of
system chunks:

1. The only SYSTEM chunk is being scrubbed
   It's very common to have only one SYSTEM chunk.
2. New SYSTEM bg will be allocated
   As btrfs_inc_block_group_ro() will check if we have enough space
   after marking current bg RO. If not, then allocate a new chunk.
3. New SYSTEM bg is still empty, will be reclaimed
   During the reclaim, we will mark it RO again.
4. That newly allocated empty SYSTEM bg get scrubbed
   We go back to step 2, as the bg is already mark RO but still not
   cleaned up yet.

If the cleaner kthread doesn't get executed fast enough (e.g. only one
CPU), then we will get more and more empty SYSTEM chunks, using up all
the space of btrfs_super_block::sys_chunk_array.

[FIX]
Since scrub/dev-replace doesn't always need to allocate new extent,
especially chunk tree extent, so we don't really need to do chunk
pre-allocation.

To break above spiral, here we introduce a new parameter to
btrfs_inc_block_group(), @do_chunk_alloc, which indicates whether we
need extra chunk pre-allocation.

For relocation, we pass @do_chunk_alloc=true, while for scrub, we pass
@do_chunk_alloc=false.
This should keep unnecessary empty chunks from popping up for scrub.

Also, since there are two parameters for btrfs_inc_block_group_ro(),
add more comment for it.

The type name is misleading, a single entry is named 'cache' while this
normally means a collection of objects. Rename that everywhere. Also the
identifier was quite long, making function prototypes harder to format.

The "&amp;fs_info-&gt;dev_replace.rwsem" and "&amp;dev_replace-&gt;rwsem" refer to
the same lock but Smatch is not clever enough to figure that out so it
leads to static checker warnings.  It's better to use it consistently
anyway.

<title>btrfs: add dedicated members for start and length of a block group</title>

<content type='text'>
The on-disk format of block group item makes use of the key that stores
the offset and length. This is further used in the code, although this
makes thing harder to understand. The key is also packed so the
offset/length is not properly aligned as u64.

Add start (key.objectid) and length (key.offset) members to block group
and remove the embedded key.  When the item is searched or written, a
local variable for key is used.

For unknown reasons, the member 'used' in the block group struct is
stored in the b-tree item and accessed everywhere using the special
accessor helper. Let's unify it and make it a regular member and only
update the item before writing it to the tree.

The item is still being used for flags and chunk_objectid, there's some
duplication until the item is removed in following patches.

<title>btrfs: get rid of unique workqueue helper functions</title>

<content type='text'>
Commit 9e0af2376434 ("Btrfs: fix task hang under heavy compressed
write") worked around the issue that a recycled work item could get a
false dependency on the original work item due to how the workqueue code
guarantees non-reentrancy. It did so by giving different work functions
to different types of work.

However, the fixes in the previous few patches are more complete, as
they prevent a work item from being recycled at all (except for a tiny
window that the kernel workqueue code handles for us). This obsoletes
the previous fix, so we don't need the unique helpers for correctness.
The only other reason to keep them would be so they show up in stack
traces, but they always seem to be optimized to a tail call, so they
don't show up anyways. So, let's just get rid of the extra indirection.

While we're here, rename normal_work_helper() to the more informative
btrfs_work_helper().

Currently, scrub_missing_raid56_worker() puts and potentially frees
sblock (which embeds the work item) and then submits a bio through
scrub_wr_submit(). This is another potential instance of the bug in
"btrfs: don't prematurely free work in run_ordered_work()". Fix it by
dropping the reference after we submit the bio.
