If we remove a block group (because it became empty), we might have left
a caching_ctl structure in fs_info->caching_block_groups that points to
the block group and is accessed at transaction commit time. This results
in accessing an invalid or incorrect block group. This issue became
visible
after Josef's patch "Btrfs: remove empty block groups automatically".

So if the block group is removed make sure we don't leave a dangling
caching_ctl in caching_block_groups.

Don't do this, just unconditionally call get_caching_control in
btrfs_remove_block_group, then if we get something we can do stuff,
otherwise we can just continue.  Thanks,


That's what I initially thought too. However, get_caching_control only
returns us the caching_ctl if block_group->cached ==
BTRFS_CACHE_STARTED, so it's not enough to use it exclusively. The
has_caching_ctl flag is just to avoid holding the semaphore and search
through the list (since block_group->caching_ctl can be NULL but a
caching_ctl point to the block group can be in the list).


Oh God that's not good, we need to change get_caching_control to return if
there is a caching control at all, since the other users want to wait for
the fast caching to finish too.  So change that and then use it
unconditionally.  I bet this has been causing us the random early ENOSPC
problems.  Thanks,

Right, I think that's a separate change different from what I'm trying to fix.

When caching_thread finishes, it sets the block_group->caching_ctl to
NULL, and caching_ctl remains in the list until transaction commit
time. So doing that change, to make get_caching_control() always
return the block group's ->caching_ctl wouldn't solve this issue - we
still need to search in the list if block_group->caching_ctl is NULL.


/me bangs his head on the desk. Ok we should probably remove the caching ctl from the list when we finish caching so we don't have this problem, but I'm fine doing that later. I'll fix the get_caching_control thing here and send a patch. Thanks,

Josef
