There is a long existing problem that extent_map::generation is not
populated (thus always 0) if its read from disk.

This can prevent btrfs autodefrag from working as it relies on
extent_map::generation.
If it's always 0, then autodefrag will not consider the range as a
defrag target.

The test case itself will verify the behavior by:

- Create a fragmented file
   By writing backwards with OSYNC
   This will also queue the file for autodefrag.

- Drop all cache
   Including the extent map cache, meaning later read will
   all get extent map by reading from on-disk file extent items.

- Trigger autodefrag and verify the file layout
   If defrag works, the new file layout should differ from the original
   one.

The kernel fix is titled:

   btrfs: populate extent_map::generation when reading from disk

Missing a:

A comment on why this sync is needed would be good to have.
It may be confusing to the reader since we were doing synchronous writes before.

+
+echo "=== Before autodefrag ===" >> $seqres.full
+$XFS_IO_PROG -c "fiemap -v" "$SCRATCH_MNT/foobar" >> $tmp.before
+cat $tmp.before >> $seqres.full
+
+# Drop the cache (including extent map cache per-inode)
+echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
+
+# Now trigger autodefrag

A bit more explanation would be useful.

Set the commit interval to 1 second, so that 1 second after the
remount the transaction kthread runs
and wakes up the cleaner kthread, which in turn will run autodefrag.

+_scratch_remount commit=1
+sleep 3
+sync

This sync is useless, so it should go away.

Autodefrag doesn't write data back at all.
It just mark the target range dirty and wait for later writeback.

Thus sync is still needed AFAIK.

Thanks,
Qu


Otherwise, it looks good and the test works as expected.

Thanks for doing it.
