The race is: Thread 1 | Thread 2 ----------------------------------------------|---------- btrfs_delete_subvolume | btrfs_set_root_flags(BTRFS_ROOT_SUBVOL_DEAD)| |btrfs_mksubvol | down_read(subvol_sem) | create_snapshot | ... | create_pending_snapshot | copy root item from source down_write(subvol_sem) | This flag is only checked in send and swap activate, which this would cause to fail mysteriously. create_snapshot() now checks the root refs to reject a deleted subvolume, so we can fix this by locking subvol_sem earlier so that the BTRFS_ROOT_SUBVOL_DEAD flag and the root refs are updated atomically.
