Hi Jeremy,

glad I'm not the only one with that issue. That may renew the
interest in it...

I don't think much progress has been made on it.

We could compare our experience to see what contributes to its
occurrence.

It occurs (quite reproducibly) for me when rsyncing from a
multi-device multi-subvolume btrfs fs (mounted with
compress-force) onto a single device, no subvolume btrfs fs also
mounted with compress-force. It also happens when the target is
mounted with compress instead of compress-force but not if I
leave out "compress".

I only get one occurrence of those BUG()s until I reboot.

After the occurrence of that BUG(), I saw a number of
misbehaviors that may or may not be linked to it:

- btrfs eating all memory (mostly in the btrfs_inode_cache slab)
  resulting in crash. That doesn't happen anymore since I'm
  mounting with no atime and use CONFIG_SLUB (though I suspect
  it's noatime alone that did the trick)

- occasionally, 20 to 95% of write(2) system calls to files on
  the source FS take 4 seconds, making it hardly usable. I also
  notice a flush-btrfs-1 stuck in "D" state

How does that compare with your experience?
