Subject: [PATCH 01/38] xfs: fix dirty transaction cancellation in xfs_bmapi_convert_one_delalloc
Date: Wed, 19 Aug 2026 10:12:04 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260819001442.1451892-2-dgc@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260819001442.1451892-1-dgc@kernel.org>

xfs_bmapi_convert_one_delalloc() calls xfs_iext_count_extend() before
checking whether there is actually a delalloc extent to convert. If
xfs_iext_count_extend() modifies the inode's extent count fields it
will dirty the transaction. If the subsequent extent lookup finds
nothing to convert (e.g. a racing COW completion moved the extent to
the data fork), the function returns -EAGAIN and the caller cancels
the transaction. Cancelling a dirty transaction triggers a filesystem
shutdown.

Fix this by moving the extent lookup and validation ahead of the
xfs_iext_count_extend() call. This ensures that if there is no extent
to convert, or the extent has already been converted by a racing
thread, the function returns before the transaction is dirtied and
can be safely cancelled.

Fixes: 4f86bb4b66c9 ("xfs: Conditionally upgrade existing inodes to use large extent counters")
