From 556755a8a99be8ca3cd9fbe36aaf9b3b0339a00d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Josef Bacik Date: Fri, 3 Jan 2020 10:38:44 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: fix improper setting of scanned for range cyclic write cache pages We noticed that we were having regular CG OOM kills in cases where there was still enough dirty pages to avoid OOM'ing. It turned out there's this corner case in btrfs's handling of range_cyclic where files that were being redirtied were not getting fully written out because of how we do range_cyclic writeback. We unconditionally were setting scanned = 1; the first time we found any pages in the inode. This isn't actually what we want, we want it to be set if we've scanned the entire file. For range_cyclic we could be starting in the middle or towards the end of the file, so we could write one page and then not write any of the other dirty pages in the file because we set scanned = 1. Fix this by not setting scanned = 1 if we find pages. The rules for setting scanned should be 1) !range_cyclic. In this case we have a specified range to write out. 2) range_cyclic && index == 0. In this case we've started at the beginning and there is no need to loop around a second time. 3) range_cyclic && we started at index > 0 and we've reached the end of the file without satisfying our nr_to_write. This patch fixes both of our writepages implementations to make sure these rules hold true. This fixed our over zealous CG OOMs in production.
