Subject: [RFC PATCH] xfs/179: modify test to trigger refcount update bugs
Date: Tue, 29 Nov 2022 14:06:39 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Y4aCb+y2ej1TBE/R@magnolia> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <166975928548.3768925.15141817742859398250.stgit@magnolia>

From: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@kernel.org>

Upon enabling fsdax + reflink for XFS, this test began to report
refcount metadata corruptions after being run.  Specifically, xfs_repair
noticed single-block refcount records that could be combined but had not
been.

The root cause of this is improper MAXREFCOUNT edge case handling in
xfs_refcount_merge_extents.  When we're trying to find candidates for a
record merge, we compute the refcount of the merged record, but without
accounting for the fact that once a record hits rc_refcount ==
MAXREFCOUNT, it is pinned that way forever.

Adjust this test to use a sub-filesize write for one of the COW writes,
because this is how we force the extent merge code to run.
