Neither. This is a result of how btrfs allocates and overwrites extents. Your file is firstly allocated in one extent of 1000kB. When you overwrite parts of it, the original extent is kept, and a new extent for the overwritten part is allocated, resulting in another allocation of 1000kB. Once you overwrite the first 100kB (the part that is still in use from the first extent), it should be freed. So your file really allocates 2000kB on disk, and qgroups accounts it correctly. You can verify it with btrfs-debug-tree. -Arne > > This is what I did: > > I create a subvolume and limit it to 4 MB, and create a 1000 KB file in > the subvol: > > # btrfs subvol create s > Create subvolume './s' > # btrfs qgroup limit 4m s > # btrfs qgroup show ./ | grep 260 > 0/260 4096 4096 > # dd if=/dev/zero of=s/file bs=1024 count=1000; sync > # ls -lah s/file > -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1000K Apr 6 00:13 s/file > # btrfs qgroup show ./ | grep 260 > 0/260 1028096 1028096 > > Then I overwrite the last 900 KB of the file, and add 100 KB of data, > resulting in a 1.1 MB file.
