Subject: [PATCH 2/4] btrfs-progs: Use mirror_num start from 1 to avoid unnecessary retry
Date: Thu,  7 Mar 2019 19:31:31 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190307113133.27003-2-wqu@suse.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190307113133.27003-1-wqu@suse.com>

[BUG]
If the first copy of a tree block is corrupted but the other copy is
good, btrfs-progs will report the error twice:
  checksum verify failed on 30556160 found 42A2DA71 wanted 00000000
  checksum verify failed on 30556160 found 42A2DA71 wanted 00000000

While kernel only report it once, just as expected:
  BTRFS warning (device dm-3): dm-3 checksum verify failed on 30556160 wanted 0 found 42A2DA71 level 0

[CAUSE]
We use mirror_num = 0 in read_tree_block() of btrfs-progs.

At first glance it's pretty OK, but mirror num 0 in btrfs means ANY
good copy. Real mirror num starts from 1.
In the context of read_tree_block(), since it's read_tree_block() to do
all the checks, mirror num 0 just means the first copy.

So if the first copy is corrupted, btrfs-progs will try mirror num 1
next, which is just the same as mirror num 0.
After reporting the same error on the same copy, btrfs-progs will
finally try mirror num 2, and get the good copy.

[FIX]
The fix is way simpler than all the above analyse, just starts from
mirror num 1.
