The logical block map reached before the problem stack was 1011.
The estimated location of the size logical block of the inde plus
the required allocation length 7, the size is 1018.
But the i_size of inode is 1299, so the size is 1299,
the aligned size is 2048, and the end is 2048.
Because of the restriction of ar -> pleft, start==648.
EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP (ac- > ac_sb) is 256,
so the size is 256 and the end is 904.
It is not normal to truncate here, the end is less than 1299 of the
target logical block, that is, the allocated range does not contain
the target logical block.
Then this new scope conflicts with the previous PA, as follows:
pa_start-506 pa_end-759
|____________P________V_________P__________V_____________l________|
0 start-648 end-904 logical-1299 2048
In this case, start is changed to pa_end, that is, 759.
In this case, a bug_ON is reported in ext4_mb_mark_diskspace_used.
The problem is caused by the truncation introduced in the
cd648b8a8fd5 ("ext4: trim allocation requests to group size").
The size must be smaller than or equal to EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP.
However, the truncation method is incorrect. The group where the
logical is located should be used for allocation. If the value of
EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP is 256, size 2048 can be divided into eight
groups. If the value of logical is 1299, the value of logical must be
in the sixth group, that is,
start=1299/256*256=5*256=1280,
end=size+1280=1536.
Then, the value range can be further narrowed down based on
other restrictions.
1024 1280 1536
|_______|_______|_______|_______|_______|__l_____|_______|_______|
0 group1 group2 group3 group4 group5 group6 group7 group8 2048
At the same time, we fixed earlier assertions that we could find out when
the target logical block was not in the allocated range.
Ritesh Harjani found that flex_bg groups was not considered in
ext4_mb_normalize_request. So we add support for flex_bg to make
the physical blocks of large files contiguous.
I ran xfstests on ext3 and ext4 and found no problems in ext3/4.
