btrfs: qgroup: Always free PREALLOC META reserve in btrfs_delalloc_release_extents()
[Background]
Btrfs qgroup uses two types of reserved space for METADATA space,
PERTRANS and PREALLOC.
PERTRANS is metadata space reserved for each transaction started by
btrfs_start_transaction().
While PREALLOC is for delalloc, where we reserve space before joining a
transaction, and finally it will be converted to PERTRANS after the
writeback is done.
[Inconsistency]
However there is inconsistency in how we handle PREALLOC metadata space.
The most obvious one is:
In btrfs_buffered_write():
btrfs_delalloc_release_extents(BTRFS_I(inode), reserve_bytes, true);
We always free qgroup PREALLOC meta space.
While in btrfs_truncate_block():
btrfs_delalloc_release_extents(BTRFS_I(inode), blocksize, (ret != 0));
We only free qgroup PREALLOC meta space when something went wrong.
[The Correct Behavior]
The correct behavior should be the one in btrfs_buffered_write(), we
should always free PREALLOC metadata space.
The reason is, the btrfs_delalloc_* mechanism works by:
- Reserve metadata first, even it's not necessary
In btrfs_delalloc_reserve_metadata()
- Free the unused metadata space
Normally in:
btrfs_delalloc_release_extents()
|- btrfs_inode_rsv_release()
Here we do calculation on whether we should release or not.
E.g. for 64K buffered write, the metadata rsv works like:
/* The first page */
reserve_meta: num_bytes=calc_inode_reservations()
free_meta: num_bytes=0
total: num_bytes=calc_inode_reservations()
/* The first page caused one outstanding extent, thus needs metadata
rsv */
/* The 2nd page */
reserve_meta: num_bytes=calc_inode_reservations()
free_meta: num_bytes=calc_inode_reservations()
total: not changed
/* The 2nd page doesn't cause new outstanding extent, needs no new meta
rsv, so we free what we have reserved */
/* The 3rd~16th pages */
reserve_meta: num_bytes=calc_inode_reservations()
free_meta: num_bytes=calc_inode_reservations()
total: not changed (still space for one outstanding extent)
This means, if btrfs_delalloc_release_extents() determines to free some
space, then those space should be freed NOW.
So for qgroup, we should call btrfs_qgroup_free_meta_prealloc() other
than btrfs_qgroup_convert_reserved_meta().
The good news is:
- The callers are not that hot
The hottest caller is in btrfs_buffered_write(), which is already
fixed by commit 336a8bb8e36a ("btrfs: Fix wrong
btrfs_delalloc_release_extents parameter"). Thus it's not that
easy to cause false EDQUOT.
- The trans commit in advance for qgroup would hide the bug
Since commit f5fef4593653 ("btrfs: qgroup: Make qgroup async transaction
commit more aggressive"), when btrfs qgroup metadata free space is slow,
it will try to commit transaction and free the wrongly converted
PERTRANS space, so it's not that easy to hit such bug.
[FIX]
So to fix the problem, remove the @qgroup_free parameter for
btrfs_delalloc_release_extents(), and always pass true to
btrfs_inode_rsv_release().
