Completely acceptable, as I also consider it's too big anyway.

Makes a lot of sense.

BTW, we were originally to submit another qgroup enhancement for 4.4 cycle.
(The one originally submitted by Yang Dongsheng, seperate btrfs qgroup 
accounting for data and metadata)


Will it be OK to submit them at the same time for 4.4?
Or better to postpone it for 4.5?
(40+ patches will surely be quite a hell to merge)

Does this happen on all kernels with qgroups or is this related to your
recent rewrite?

All kernels.

My recent rewrite only affects the accounting part (the excl/rfer 
numbers), reserve part is somewhat independent from accounting part.


But I have to admit that, in fact my rewrite introduced some 
incompatibility with old reserve codes.


One of the most obvious one is the hot fix introduced in late 4.2-rc.
And still some hidden one. For example, old reserved space will be freed 
at end_trans() time.


But with new accounting rewrite, we shouldn't do that until 
commit_trans(). As reserved space will be converted into rfer/exel only 
at commit_trans().
If freed too early like old codes, we may have the possibility to exceed 
the limit.


Thankfully, all these will be addressed in the big patchset.




[[CAUSE]]
The problem is caused by the fact that qgroup will reserve space even
the data space is already reserved.

In above reproducer, each time we buffered write [0,2M) qgroup will
reserve 2M space, but in fact, at the 1st time, we have already reserved
2M and from then on, we don't need to reserved any data space as we are
only writing [0,2M).

Also, the reserved space will only be freed *ONCE* when its backref is
run at commit_transaction() time.

That's causing the reserved space leaking.

[[FIX]]
The fix is not a simple one, as currently btrfs_qgroup_reserve() follow


Indeed, this is quite a large patch series and I see no testing details from
you. Can you please at the least provide a single reproducer in the form of
something that can be added to xfstests?

Like Filipe mentioned, it's already submitted to fstests.

And sorry for not mentioning it in the comment message.

BTW, there will be more test cases coming for qgroup soon, with a lot of 
error exposed in the development of the patchset.




the very bad btrfs space allocating principle:
   Allocate as much as you needed, even it's not fully used.

So for accurate qgroup reserve, we introduce a completely new framework
for data and metadata.
1) Per-inode data reserve map
Now, each inode will have a data reserve map, recording which range
of data is already reserved.
If we are writing a range which is already reserved, we won't need to
reserve space again.

Also, for the fact that qgroup is only accounted at commit_trans(),
for data commit into disc and its metadata is also inserted into
current tree, we should free the data reserved range, but still keep
the reserved space until commit_trans().

So delayed_ref_head will have new members to record how much space is
reserved and free them at commit_trans() time.

2) Per-root metadata reserve counter
For metadata(tree block), it's impossible to know how much space it
will use exactly in advance.
And due to the new qgroup accounting framework, the old
free-at-end-trans may lead to exceeding limit.

So we record how much metadata space is reserved for each root, and
free them at commit_trans() time.
This method is not perfect, but thanks to the compared small size of
metadata, it should be quite good.

Those are incredibly useful for debugging on live systems and in fact I've
