Linux kernel source tree
9f89d5de86
When we set a subvolume to read-only mode we do not flush dellaloc for any of its inodes (except if the filesystem is mounted with -o flushoncommit), since it does not affect correctness for any subsequent operations - except for a future send operation. The send operation will not be able to see the delalloc data since the respective file extent items, inode item updates, backreferences, etc, have not hit yet the subvolume and extent trees. Effectively this means data loss, since the send stream will not contain any data from existing delalloc. Another problem from this is that if the writeback starts and finishes while the send operation is in progress, we have the subvolume tree being being modified concurrently which can result in send failing unexpectedly with EIO or hitting runtime errors, assertion failures or hitting BUG_ONs, etc. Simple reproducer: $ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdb $ mount /dev/sdb /mnt $ btrfs subvolume create /mnt/sv $ xfs_io -f -c "pwrite -S 0xea 0 108K" /mnt/sv/foo $ btrfs property set /mnt/sv ro true $ btrfs send -f /tmp/send.stream /mnt/sv $ od -t x1 -A d /mnt/sv/foo 0000000 ea ea ea ea ea ea ea ea ea ea ea ea ea ea ea ea * 0110592 $ umount /mnt $ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdc $ mount /dev/sdc /mnt $ btrfs receive -f /tmp/send.stream /mnt $ echo $? 0 $ od -t x1 -A d /mnt/sv/foo 0000000 # ---> empty file Since this a problem that affects send only, fix it in send by flushing dellaloc for all the roots used by the send operation before send starts to process the commit roots. This is a problem that affects send since it was introduced (commit |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
