From: Filipe Manana <fdman...@suse.com> commit 4b1946284dd6641afdb9457101056d9e6ee6204c upstream.
If we attempt to write to prealloc extent located after eof using a RWF_NOWAIT write, we always fail with -EAGAIN. We do actually check if we have an allocated extent for the write at the start of btrfs_file_write_iter() through a call to check_can_nocow(), but later when we go into the actual direct IO write path we simply return -EAGAIN if the write starts at or beyond EOF. Trivial to reproduce: $ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdb $ mount /dev/sdb /mnt $ touch /mnt/foo $ chattr +C /mnt/foo $ xfs_io -d -c "pwrite -S 0xab 0 64K" /mnt/foo wrote 65536/65536 bytes at offset 0 64 KiB, 16 ops; 0.0004 sec (135.575 MiB/sec and 34707.1584 ops/sec) $ xfs_io -c "falloc -k 64K 1M" /mnt/foo $ xfs_io -d -c "pwrite -N -V 1 -S 0xfe -b 64K 64K 64K" /mnt/foo pwrite: Resource temporarily unavailable On xfs and ext4 the write succeeds, as expected. Fix this by removing the wrong check at btrfs_direct_IO().
