[BUG]
After creating a dirty log tree, although
btrfs_super_block::log_root and log_root_level is correctly populated,
its generation is still left 0:

  log_root                30474240
  log_root_transid        0 <<<
  log_root_level          0

[CAUSE]
We just forgot to update btrfs_super_block::log_root_transid completely.

Thus it's always the original value (0) from the initial super block.

Thankfully this old behavior won't break log replay, as in
btrfs_read_tree(), parent generation 0 means we just skip the generation

btrfs_read_tree() does not exists, it's btrfs_read_tree_root().

This is actually irrelevant, because we don't read the root log tree with
btrfs_read_tree_root(). We use read_tree_block() for that (at btrfs_replay_log()),

Oh, right, I forgot to check that code, and just assumed every root read
from superblock would has its generation checked, but it's not the case
for log tree root.

and we use a generation matching the committed transaction + 1 (as it can never
be anything else).

For every other log tree, we use btrfs_read_tree_root(), but the generation is
stored in the root's root item stored in the root log tree.

The log_root_transid field was added to the super block by:

     Btrfs: Add inode sequence number for NFS and reserved space in a few structs

But it was never used.

So this change is not needed.

Then, considering we have never really set log_root_transid anywhere,
and in theory we're always using btrfs_super_block::generation + 1, why
not just deprecate that member?

In fact, every time (thankfully not that many times for me) I checked
log_root_transid, I can not help but to wonder why it's always 0.

Thanks,

Thanks.


check.

And per-root log tree is still done properly using the root generation,
so here we really only missed the generation check for log tree root,
and even we fixed it, it should not cause any compatible problem.

[FIX]
Just update btrfs_super_block::log_root_transid properly.

We don't need this.

The log_root_transid field was added to the super block by:
