As is mentioned[1] before, the generic/388 will randomly fail with dmesg
warning.  This case uses fsstress with a lot of random operations.  It is hard
to  reproduce.  Finally I found a 100% reproduce condition, which is setting
the seed to 1677104360.  So I changed the generic/388 code: removed the loop
and used the code below instad:
```
($FSSTRESS_PROG $FSSTRESS_AVOID -d $SCRATCH_MNT -v -s 1677104360 -n 221 -p 1 >> $seqres.full) > /dev/null 2>&1
($FSSTRESS_PROG $FSSTRESS_AVOID -d $SCRATCH_MNT -v -s 1677104360 -n 221 -p 1 >> $seqres.full) > /dev/null 2>&1
_check_dmesg_for dax_insert_entry
```

According to the operations log, and kernel debug log I added, I found that
the reflink flag of one inode won't be unset even if there's no more shared
extents any more.
   Then write to this file again.  Because of the reflink flag, xfs thinks it
     needs cow, and extent(called it extA) will be CoWed to a new
     extent(called it extB) incorrectly.  And extA is not used any more,
     but didn't be unmapped (didn't do dax_disassociate_entry()).

IOWs, dax_iomap_copy_around (or something very near it) should be
calling dax_disassociate_entry on the source range after copying extA's
contents to extB to drop its page->shared count?

If extA is a shared extent, its pages will be disassociated correctly by invalidate_inode_pages2_range() in dax_iomap_iter().

But the problem is that extA is not shared but now be CoWed, invalidate_inode_pages2_range() is also called but it can't disassociate the old page (because the page is marked dirty, can't be invalidated)

Is the behavior to do CoW on a non-shared extent allowed?


   The next time we mapwrite to another file, xfs will allocate extA for it,
     page fault handler do dax_associate_entry().  BUT bucause the extA didn't
     be unmapped, it still stores old file's info in page->mapping,->index.
     Then, It reports dmesg warning when it try to sotre the new file's info.

So, I think:
   1. reflink flag should be updated after CoW operations.
   2. xfs_reflink_allocate_cow() should add "if extent is shared" to determine
      xfs do CoW or not.

I made the fix patch, it can resolve the fail of generic/388.  But it causes
other cases fail: generic/127, generic/263, generic/616, xfs/315 xfs/421. I'm
not sure if the fix is right, or I have missed something somewhere.  Please
give me some advice.

Thank you very much!!

This will disable COW on /all/ blocks in the entire file, including the
shared ones.  At a bare minimum you'd have to scan the entire data fork
to ensure there are no shared extents.  That's probably why doing this
causes so many new regressions.

This function will search for shared extent before actually clearing the flag. If no shared extent found, the flag won't be cleared. The name of this function is not very accurate.

BTW, in my thought, the reflink flag is to indicate if a file is now containing any shared extents or not. So, it should be cleared immediately if no extents shared any more. Is this right?

Thanks,
Ruan.

PS: Let me paste the log of failed tests:
generic/127, generic/263, generic/616 are fsx tests. Their fail message are meaningless. I am looking into their difference between good/bad results.
