PATCH 1/1 Btrfs: fix hang on error (such as ENOSPC) when writing extent pages

When running low on available disk space and having several processes doing buffered file IO, I got the following trace in dmesg:

It turns out that extent_io.c:__extent_writepage(), which ends up being called through filemap_fdatawrite_range() in btrfs_start_ordered_extent(), was getting -ENOSPC when calling the fill_delalloc callback. In this situation, it returned without the writepage_end_io_hook callback (inode.c:btrfs_writepage_end_io_hook) ever being called for the respective page, which prevents the ordered extent's bytes_left count from ever reaching 0, and therefore a finish_ordered_fn work is never queued into the endio_write_workers queue. This makes the task that called btrfs_start_ordered_extent() hang forever on the wait queue of the ordered extent.

This is fairly easy to reproduce using a small filesystem and fsstress on a quad core vm:

    mkfs.btrfs -f -b `expr 2100 \* 1024 \* 1024` /dev/sdd
    mount /dev/sdd /mnt

It turns out that extent_io.c:__extent_writepage(), which ends up being called through filemap_fdatawrite_range() in btrfs_start_ordered_extent(), was getting -ENOSPC when calling the fill_delalloc callback. In this situation, it returned without the writepage_end_io_hook callback (inode.c:btrfs_writepage_end_io_hook) ever being called for the respective page, which prevents the ordered extent's bytes_left count from ever reaching 0, and therefore a finish_ordered_fn work is never queued into the endio_write_workers queue. This makes the task that called btrfs_start_ordered_extent() hang forever on the wait queue of the ordered extent.

Nice fix, I've comfirmed the hang on my box, but things could be more complex, more below,

So 'return ret' can makes extent_write_cache_pages() stop after this __extent_writepage, and if the page happens to be the last one of the current pagevec of the for() loop that extent_write_cache_pages() is using, the rest pages will never get be processed.

Try to image this, on lack of space, we'd get ENOSPC on btrfs_reserve_extent() which is in cow_file_range() -- a normal choice for run_delalloc_range(), and for page N, it's the locked_page we use in cow_file_range(), and the delalloc range also involves other pages that are after page N. Now we get ENOSPC on allocating space for page N+2 rather the page N, which means page N and page N+1 have been on the ordered list, then as this patch does, we bail out and return the -ENOSPC error to caller, now if the above situation occurs, page N+1 will not be processed, then the page N+1 's ordered extent will not be finished either since we don't submit that page at all.

However, this is a rare case, I don't run into that(I guess that's because it has low possibility that the page happens to be the last one of pagevec).

So my suggestion is, let this locked page go for the normal submit_bio path if it has been set up properly for ordered write. Those pages that don't get space in cow_file_range() has been cleaned up through the error handling path, but what's lacked here is that these pages are not marked via SetPageError, we might need to add that in extent_clear_unlock_delalloc().

(but I could be wrong, so cc maintainers for ideas)

It turns out that extent_io.c:__extent_writepage(), which ends up being called through filemap_fdatawrite_range() in btrfs_start_ordered_extent(), was getting -ENOSPC when calling the fill_delalloc callback. In this situation, it returned without the writepage_end_io_hook callback (inode.c:btrfs_writepage_end_io_hook) ever being called for the respective page, which prevents the ordered extent's bytes_left count from ever reaching 0, and therefore a finish_ordered_fn work is never queued into the endio_write_workers queue. This makes the task that called btrfs_start_ordered_extent() hang forever on the wait queue of the ordered extent.

This is fairly easy to reproduce using a small filesystem and fsstress on a quad core vm:

    mkfs.btrfs -f -b `expr 2100 \* 1024 \* 1024` /dev/sdd
    mount /dev/sdd /mnt

    fsstress -p 6 -d /mnt -n 100000 -x \
        "btrfs subvolume snapshot -r /mnt /mnt/mysnap" \
	    -f allocsp=0 \
	    -f bulkstat=0 \
	    -f bulkstat1=0 \
	    -f chown=0 \
	    -f creat=1 \
	    -f dread=0 \
	    -f dwrite=0 \
	    -f fallocate=1 \
	    -f fdatasync=0 \
	    -f fiemap=0 \
	    -f freesp=0 \
	    -f fsync=0 \
	    -f getattr=0 \
	    -f getdents=0 \
	    -f link=0 \
	    -f mkdir=0 \
	    -f mknod=0 \
	    -f punch=1 \
	    -f read=0 \
	    -f readlink=0 \
	    -f rename=0 \
	    -f resvsp=0 \
	    -f rmdir=0 \
	    -f setxattr=0 \
	    -f stat=0 \
	    -f symlink=0 \
	    -f sync=0 \
	    -f truncate=1 \
	    -f unlink=0 \
	    -f unresvsp=0 \
	    -f write=4

So just ensure that if an error happens while writing the extent page we call the writepage_end_io_hook callback. Also make it return the error code and ensure the caller (extent_write_cache_pages) processes all pages in the page vector even if an error happens only for some of them, so that ordered extents end up released.

---

V2: Grab error from em pointer if available, do the error check and
end_extent_writepage call before unlocking the page (just like end_bio_extent_writepage does).

V3: Make extent_write_cache_pages not stop processing remaining pages
in the page vector if __extent_writepage returns an error for some page, so that ordered extents end up being processed and released.

When running low on available disk space and having several processes doing buffered file IO, I got the following trace in dmesg:

I was building 3.15.1 and noticed this patch didn't make it in (your other 2 btrfs send patches I was carrying did make it). Is that on purpose, and maybe being delayed for 3.16, or is that maybe an oversight?

Thanks,
Marc
