    btrfs: Fix out-of-space bug · 13212b54
    Zhao Lei authored
    Btrfs will report NO_SPACE when we create and remove files for several times,
    and we can't write to filesystem until mount it again.
    
    Steps to reproduce:
     1: Create a single-dev btrfs fs with default option
     2: Write a file into it to take up most fs space
     3: Delete above file
     4: Wait about 100s to let chunk removed
     5: goto 2
    
    Script is like following:
     #!/bin/bash
    
     # Recommend 1.2G space, too large disk will make test slow
     DEV="/dev/sda16"
     MNT="/mnt/tmp"
    
     dev_size="$(lsblk -bn -o SIZE "$DEV")" || exit 2
     file_size_m=$((dev_size * 75 / 100 / 1024 / 1024))
    
     echo "Loop write ${file_size_m}M file on $((dev_size / 1024 / 1024))M dev"
    
     for ((i = 0; i < 10; i++)); do umount "$MNT" 2>/dev/null; done
     echo "mkfs $DEV"
     mkfs.btrfs -f "$DEV" >/dev/null || exit 2
     echo "mount $DEV $MNT"
     mount "$DEV" "$MNT" || exit 2
    
     for ((loop_i = 0; loop_i < 20; loop_i++)); do
         echo
         echo "loop $loop_i"
    
         echo "dd file..."
         cmd=(dd if=/dev/zero of="$MNT"/file0 bs=1M count="$file_size_m")
         "${cmd[@]}" 2>/dev/null || {
             # NO_SPACE error triggered
             echo "dd failed: ${cmd[*]}"
             exit 1
         }
    
         echo "rm file..."
         rm -f "$MNT"/file0 || exit 2
    
         for ((i = 0; i < 10; i++)); do
             df "$MNT" | tail -1
             sleep 10
         done
     done
    
    Reason:
     It is triggered by commit: 47ab2a6c
    
    
     which is used to remove empty block groups automatically, but the
     reason is not in that patch. Code before works well because btrfs
     don't need to create and delete chunks so many times with high
     complexity.
     Above bug is caused by many reason, any of them can trigger it.
    
    Reason1:
     When we remove some continuous chunks but leave other chunks after,
     these disk space should be used by chunk-recreating, but in current
     code, only first create will successed.

    Reason2:
     contains_pending_extent() return wrong value in calculation.

    Reason3:
     btrfs_check_data_free_space() try to commit transaction and retry
     allocating chunk when the first allocating failed, but space_info->full
     is set in first allocating, and prevent second allocating in retry.
     Fixed in this patch by clear space_info->full in commit transaction.
    
     Tested for severial times by above script.
    
    Changelog v3->v4:
     use light weight int instead of atomic_t to record have_remove_bgs in
     transaction, suggested by:
     Josef Bacik <jbacik@fb.com>
    
    Changelog v2->v3:
     v2 fixed the bug by adding more commit-transaction, but we
     only need to reclaim space when we are really have no space for
     new chunk, noticed by:
     Filipe David Manana <fdmanana@gmail.com>
    
     Actually, our code already have this type of commit-and-retry,
     we only need to make it working with removed-bgs.
     v3 fixed the bug with above way.
    
    Changelog v1->v2:
     v1 will introduce a new bug when delete and create chunk in same disk
     space in same transaction, noticed by:
     Filipe David Manana <fdmanana@gmail.com>
     V2 fix this bug by commit transaction after remove block grops.
