A reservation goes through a 3 step lifetime: - generated during delalloc - released/counted by ordered_extent allocation - freed by running delayed ref That third step depends on must_insert_reserved on the head ref, so the head ref with that field set owns the reservation. Once you prepare to run the head ref, must_insert_reserved is unset, which means that running the ref must free the reservation, whether or not it succeeds, or else the reservation is leaked. That results in either a risk of spurious ENOSPC if the fs stays writeable or a warning on unmount if it is readonly. The existing squota code was aware of these invariants, but missed a few cases. Improve it by adding a helper function to use in the cleanup paths and call it from the existing early returns in running delayed refs. This also simplifies btrfs_record_squota_delta and struct btrfs_quota_delta. This fixes (or at least improves the reliability of) generic/475 with "mkfs -O squota". On my machine, that test failed ~4/10 times without this patch and passed 100/100 times with it. Signed-off-by: Boris Burkov <boris@bur.io> Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
