The previous patch's commit message also has that quirk.

By the way, the copy on write code remembers the extents it has
allocated for CoW staging in the refcount btree so that it can free them
after a crash, which means that O_ATOMIC requires reflink to be enabled.
There doesn't seem to be any explicit checking that reflink is even
enabled, which will probably just lead to weird crashes on a pre-reflink
xfs.
FWIW I didn't see any checking anywhere (vfs or xfs) that the filesystem
can actually support O_ATOMIC. If the FS doesn't support atomic writes,
shouldn't the kernel send EINVAL or something back to userspace?

So we cancel the CoW staging blocks if the write was atomic and failed.
Later in the !error case we remap the blocks if it was a cow write, but
leave the mapping in memory if the write was atomic. That is consistent
with the commit message, good.
At the start of xfs_reflink.c is a long block comment describing how the
copy on write mechanism works. Since O_ATOMIC is a variant on CoW (it's
basically CoW with remapping deferred until fsync), please update the
comment so that the comments capture the details of how atomic writes
work.
(IOWs: Dave asked me to leave the big comment, so I'm going to try to
keep it fairly up to date.)

I suppose it goes without saying that userspace will have to coordinate
its O_ATOMIC writes to the file. What if this happens?
Process A Process B
Open atomic file Open atomic file
Dirty some pages Dirty some other pages
fsync
Successful fsync return
Dirty more pages
Dirty more of some other pages
<system crash>
When we come back up, the file contents will reflect everything A wrote
up to fsync, and (since fsync flushed everything) everything B wrote in
"dirty some other pages", even though it hadn't reached fsync. Won't
this be surprising to B since it expected that disk mappings don't get
updated until it fsyncs?
Practically speaking, I wonder how often this will come up in the real
world, but it does seem to be a potential downside. Per *file tracking
sounds like a bigger bookkeeping nightmare.
