[PATCH 6.4 188/206] btrfs: set cache_block_group_error if we find an error

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Josef Bacik <josef@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 92fb94b69c6accf1e49fff699640fa0ce03dc910 upstream.

We set cache_block_group_error if btrfs_cache_block_group() returns an
error, this is because we could end up not finding space to allocate and
mistakenly return -ENOSPC, and which could then abort the transaction
with the incorrect errno, and in the case of ENOSPC result in a
WARN_ON() that will trip up tests like generic/475.

However there's the case where multiple threads can be racing, one
thread gets the proper error, and the other thread doesn't actually call
btrfs_cache_block_group(), it instead sees ->cached ==
BTRFS_CACHE_ERROR.  Again the result is the same, we fail to allocate
our space and return -ENOSPC.  Instead we need to set
cache_block_group_error to -EIO in this case to make sure that if we do
not make our allocation we get the appropriate error returned back to
the caller.
