Subject: [PATCH 117/135] btrfs: Continue write in case of can_not_nocow
[ Upstream commit 4da2e26a2a32b174878744bd0f07db180c875f26 ]
btrfs failed in xfstests btrfs/080 with -o nodatacow.
Can be reproduced by following script:
DEV=/dev/vdg
MNT=/mnt/tmp
umount $DEV &>/dev/null
mkfs.btrfs -f $DEV
mount -o nodatacow $DEV $MNT
dd if=/dev/zero of=$MNT/test bs=1 count=2048 &
btrfs subvolume snapshot -r $MNT $MNT/test_snap &
wait
--
We can see dd failed on NO_SPACE.
Reason:
__btrfs_buffered_write should run cow write when no_cow impossible,
and current code is designed with above logic.
But check_can_nocow() have 2 type of return value(0 and <0) on
can_not_no_cow, and current code only continue write on first case,
the second case happened in doing subvolume.
Fix:
Continue write when check_can_nocow() return 0 and <0.
