[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.15 3/6] btrfs: avoid unnecessary device path update for the same device

[Sasha Levin]

From: Qu Wenruo <wqu@suse.com>

[ Upstream commit 2e8b6bc0ab41ce41e6dfcc204b6cc01d5abbc952 ]

[PROBLEM]
It is very common for udev to trigger device scan, and every time a
mounted btrfs device got re-scan from different soft links, we will get
some of unnecessary device path updates, this is especially common
for LVM based storage:

 # lvs
  scratch1 test -wi-ao---- 10.00g
  scratch2 test -wi-a----- 10.00g
  scratch3 test -wi-a----- 10.00g
  scratch4 test -wi-a----- 10.00g
  scratch5 test -wi-a----- 10.00g
  test     test -wi-a----- 10.00g

 # mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/test/scratch1
 # mount /dev/test/scratch1 /mnt/btrfs
 # dmesg -c
 [  205.705234] BTRFS: device fsid 7be2602f-9e35-4ecf-a6ff-9e91d2c182c9 devid 1 transid 6 /dev/mapper/test-scratch1 (253:4) scanned by mount (1154)
 [  205.710864] BTRFS info (device dm-4): first mount of filesystem 7be2602f-9e35-4ecf-a6ff-9e91d2c182c9
 [  205.711923] BTRFS info (device dm-4): using crc32c (crc32c-intel) checksum algorithm
 [  205.713856] BTRFS info (device dm-4): using free-space-tree
 [  205.722324] BTRFS info (device dm-4): checking UUID tree

So far so good, but even if we just touched any soft link of
"dm-4", we will get quite some unnecessary device path updates.

 # touch /dev/mapper/test-scratch1
 # dmesg -c
 [  469.295796] BTRFS info: devid 1 device path /dev/mapper/test-scratch1 changed to /dev/dm-4 scanned by (udev-worker) (1221)
 [  469.300494] BTRFS info: devid 1 device path /dev/dm-4 changed to /dev/mapper/test-scratch1 scanned by (udev-worker) (1221)

Such device path rename is unnecessary and can lead to random path
change due to the udev race.

[CAUSE]
Inside device_list_add(), we are using a very primitive way checking if
the device has changed, strcmp().

Which can never handle links well, no matter if it's hard or soft links.

So every different link of the same device will be treated as a different
device, causing the unnecessary device path update.

[FIX]
Introduce a helper, is_same_device(), and use path_equal() to properly
detect the same block device.
So that the different soft links won't trigger the rename race.

[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.15 4/6] btrfs: fix warning on PTR_ERR() against NULL device at btrfs_control_ioctl()

[Sasha Levin]

From: Filipe Manana <fdmanana@suse.com>

[ Upstream commit 2342d6595b608eec94187a17dc112dd4c2a812fa ]

Smatch complains about calling PTR_ERR() against a NULL pointer:

  fs/btrfs/super.c:2272 btrfs_control_ioctl() warn: passing zero to 'PTR_ERR'

Fix this by calling PTR_ERR() against the device pointer only if it
contains an error.
