Hi there, I've run into a very strange hang with btrfs. I was trying to 
restore a directory (postgres database) from a readonly snapshot. To do 
this i used the command `cp -ar --reflink=always`. This worked fine for 
100s of files, however when it got to a particular file 16 kworker 
threads (I have 8 processors in this system) got marked as being in D 
state (with 0 cpu usage or disk usage) and I could not access the btrfs 
file system any more. I can't see any kernel message or OOPS. Can you 
please let me know what additional debug information I can provide to 
help track this issue down in the kernel?

System is latest ubuntu 14.04 LTS with a backported wily kernel (package 
linux-image-4.2.0-22-generic):

4.2.0-22-generic #27~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Dec 18 10:57:53 UTC 2015 
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Thanks

Mark

Hi Mark,

Could you do below when the hang happens, and post the dmesg.

echo w > /proc/sysrq-trigger

It overflowed the dmesg buffer but hopefully contains enough cores -

Also I have quota tracking enabled on the btrfs volume if that makes any 
difference.

I'm not sure whether it makes a difference for this particular hang, but 
I do know that btrfs quotas are simply not stable thru at least 4.3.  I'm 
not sure what 4.4 status is, but my general recommendation regarding 
btrfs quotas is...

If you need quotas, use a more mature filesystem where they work 
reliably, if you don't, then turn them off for now, and don't turn them 
on again until at least two complete kernel cycles have passed without a 
known quota bug or instability, which, if 4.4 is indeed known-bug-free 
and it and 4.5 remain so thru 4.6, means that would be the earliest I 
could recommend turning it on, and that's only if there's no known quota 
bugs in 4.4 or 4.5 or 4.6 by the time of 4.6 release.

Unless of course you're deliberately and specifically testing btrfs 
quotas and working with the devs on fixing quota specific issues, in 
which case, thank you. =:^)

Meanwhile, the rather long history of problems with quotas on btrfs is 
both the reason I'm suggesting two complete cycles without quota issues 
before enabling them, and a good reason to be skeptical as to current 
releases' quota code or the likelihood of that two-releases-quota-bug-
free happening any time soon.  There's definitely a lot of work going 
into the feature and there's gotta be a point where it actually works, 
but they've rewritten the code three times and are still dealing with 
bugs, and it has been in a "try back in a couple kernel cycles" state for 
years, now, so... who knows?  Kinda reminds me of how long the raid56 
code took, only quota was being worked on before that, and is still being 
worked on, so...
