Is that intentional? Yes. btrfs_run_delayed_iputs() will start new transaction, but if fs is frozen, we can not do that. In start_transaction(), it'll call sb_start_intwrite() trying to get SB_FREEZE_FS lock, but SB_FREEZE_FS has been locked by fsfreeze. > > Also, the use of atomic (probably) works, but just relies on the locked > semantics of the updates although there are no inc/dec operations. An > equivalent would be a bare int with barriers. Yes, I think a bare int would be enough. Because there are many locks between "fs_frozen = 1" and "btrfs_commit_transaction()->btrfs_run_delayed_iputs". Though I don't have much knowledge about memory barriers :) > > Next, I'm not sure if the freeze/thaw could be called multiple times. > Ie. with this patch, if I call freeze twice and thaw once, the > filesystem's frozen status would be 'normal', although the frozen status > as seen by vfs would be 'frozen'.

The first "sudo fsfreeze -f mntpoint" would succeed, but a second "sudo fsfreeze -f mntpoint" would report: fsfreeze: mntpoint: freeze failed: Device or resource busy int freeze_super(struct super_block *sb) { int ret; atomic_inc(&sb->s_active); down_write(&sb->s_umount); if (sb->s_writers.frozen != SB_UNFROZEN) { deactivate_locked_super(sb); return -EBUSY; } ... } From above codes, we can see that if fs has been frozen, we can not freeze it anymore.
