We have another case where after an fsync log replay we get an inode with
a wrong link count (smaller than it should be) and a number of directory
entries greater than its link count. This happens when we add a new link
hard link to our inode A and then we fsync some other inode B that has
the side effect of logging the parent directory inode too. In this case
at log replay time we add the new hard link to our inode (the item with
key BTRFS_INODE_REF_KEY) when processing the parent directory but we
never adjust the link count of our inode A. As a result we get stale dir
entries for our inode A that can never be deleted and therefore it makes
it impossible to remove the parent directory (as its i_size can never
decrease back to 0).
A simple reproducer for fstests that triggers this issue:
seq=`basename $0`
seqres=$RESULT_DIR/$seq
echo "QA output created by $seq"
tmp=/tmp/$$
status=1 # failure is the default!
trap "_cleanup; exit \$status" 0 1 2 3 15
_cleanup()
{
_cleanup_flakey
rm -f $tmp.*
}
# get standard environment, filters and checks
. ./common/rc
. ./common/filter
. ./common/dmflakey
# real QA test starts here
_need_to_be_root
_supported_fs generic
_supported_os Linux
_require_scratch
_require_dm_flakey
_require_metadata_journaling $SCRATCH_DEV
rm -f $seqres.full
_scratch_mkfs >>$seqres.full 2>&1
_init_flakey
_mount_flakey
# Create our test directory and files.
mkdir $SCRATCH_MNT/testdir
touch $SCRATCH_MNT/testdir/foo
touch $SCRATCH_MNT/testdir/bar
# Make sure everything done so far is durably persisted.
sync
# Create one hard link for file foo and another one for file bar. After
# that fsync only the file bar.
ln $SCRATCH_MNT/testdir/bar $SCRATCH_MNT/testdir/bar_link
ln $SCRATCH_MNT/testdir/foo $SCRATCH_MNT/testdir/foo_link
$XFS_IO_PROG -c "fsync" $SCRATCH_MNT/testdir/bar
# Silently drop all writes on scratch device to simulate power failure.
_load_flakey_table $FLAKEY_DROP_WRITES
_unmount_flakey
# Allow writes again and mount the fs to trigger log/journal replay.
_load_flakey_table $FLAKEY_ALLOW_WRITES
_mount_flakey
# Now verify both our files have a link count of 2.
echo "Link count for file foo: $(stat --format=%h $SCRATCH_MNT/testdir/foo)"
echo "Link count for file bar: $(stat --format=%h $SCRATCH_MNT/testdir/bar)"
# We should be able to remove all the links of our files in testdir, and
# after that the parent directory should become empty and therefore
# possible to remove it.
rm -f $SCRATCH_MNT/testdir/*
rmdir $SCRATCH_MNT/testdir
_unmount_flakey
# The fstests framework will call fsck against our filesystem which will verify
# that all metadata is in a consistent state.
status=0
exit
The test fails with:
-Link count for file foo: 2
+Link count for file foo: 1
Link count for file bar: 2
+rm: cannot remove '/home/fdmanana/btrfs-tests/scratch_1/testdir/foo_link': Stale file handle
+rmdir: failed to remove '/home/fdmanana/btrfs-tests/scratch_1/testdir': Directory not empty
(...)
_check_btrfs_filesystem: filesystem on /dev/sdc is inconsistent
And fsck's output:
(...)
checking fs roots
root 5 inode 258 errors 2001, no inode item, link count wrong
unresolved ref dir 257 index 5 namelen 8 name foo_link filetype 1 errors 4, no inode ref
Checking filesystem on /dev/sdc
(...)
So fix this by marking inodes for link count fixup at log replay time
whenever a directory entry is replayed if the entry was created in the
transaction where the fsync was made and if it points to a non-directory
inode.
This isn't a new problem/regression, the issue exists for a long time,
possibly since the log tree feature was added (2008).
