xfs: fix missing CoW blocks writeback conversion retry
In commit7588cbeec6
, we tried to fix a race stemming from the lack of coordination between higher level code that wants to allocate and remap CoW fork extents into the data fork. Christoph cites as examples the always_cow mode, and a directio write completion racing with writeback. According to the comments before the goto retry, we want to restart the lookup to catch the extent in the data fork, but we don't actually reset whichfork or cow_fsb, which means the second try executes using stale information. Up until now I think we've gotten lucky that either there's something left in the CoW fork to cause cow_fsb to be reset, or either data/cow fork sequence numbers have advanced enough to force a fresh lookup from the data fork. However, if we reach the retry with an empty stable CoW fork and a stable data fork, neither of those things happens. The retry foolishly re-calls xfs_convert_blocks on the CoW fork which fails again. This time, we toss the write. I've recently been working on extending reflink to the realtime device. When the realtime extent size is larger than a single block, we have to force the page cache to CoW the entire rt extent if a write (or fallocate) are not aligned with the rt extent size. The strategy I've chosen to deal with this is derived from Dave's blocksize > pagesize series: dirtying around the write range, and ensuring that writeback always starts mapping on an rt extent boundary. This has brought this race front and center, since generic/522 blows up immediately. However, I'm pretty sure this is a bug outright, independent of that. Fixes:7588cbeec6
