Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: abort the transaction if we fail to inc ref in
btrfs_copy_root
While testing my error handling patches, I added a error injection site
at btrfs_inc_extent_ref, to validate the error handling I added was
doing the correct thing. However I hit a pretty ugly corruption while
doing this check, with the following error injection stack trace:
btrfs_inc_extent_ref
btrfs_copy_root
create_reloc_root
btrfs_init_reloc_root
btrfs_record_root_in_trans
btrfs_start_transaction
btrfs_update_inode
btrfs_update_time
touch_atime
file_accessed
btrfs_file_mmap
This is because we do not catch the error from btrfs_inc_extent_ref,
which in practice would be ENOMEM, which means we lose the extent
references for a root that has already been allocated and inserted,
which is the problem. Fix this by aborting the transaction if we fail
to do the reference modification.
