We've talked about this "busy extent in transaction" issue before: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-xfs/20210428065152.77280-1-chandanrlinux@xxxxxxxxx/ and we were closing in on a practical solution before it went silent. I'm not sure if there's a different fix we can apply here - maybe free one extent per transaction instead of all the extents in an EFI in one transaction and relog the EFD at the end of each extent free transaction roll? > commit 06058bc40534530e617e5623775c53bb24f032cb disallowed using busy extents > for any path that calls xfs_extent_busy_trim().

The blocks get placed on the AGFL for -later- use, and not necessarily even within the current transaction. Hence a freelist block is still considered free space, not as used space. The difference is that we assume AGFL blocks can always be used immediately and they aren't constrained by being busy or have pending discards. Also, we have to keep in mind that we can allocate data blocks from the AGFL in low space situations. Hence it is not safe to place busy or discard-pending blocks on the AGFL, as this can result in them being allocated for user data and overwritten before the checkpoint that marked them busy has been committed to the journal.... As such, I don't think it is be safe to ignore busy extent state just because we are filling the AGFL from the current free space tree. Cheers, Dave. -- Dave Chinner david@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
