When cloning an inline extent there are cases where we can not just copy
the inline extent from the source range to the target range (e.g. when the
target range starts at an offset greater than zero). In such cases we copy
the inline extent's data into a page of the destination inode and then
dirty that page. However, after that we will need to start a transaction
for each processed extent and, if we are ever low on available metadata
space, we may need to flush existing delalloc for all dirty inodes in an
attempt to release metadata space - if that happens we may deadlock:
* the async reclaim task queued a delalloc work to flush delalloc for
the destination inode of the clone operation;
* the task executing that delalloc work gets blocked waiting for the
range with the dirty page to be unlocked, which is currently locked
by the task doing the clone operation;
* the async reclaim task blocks waiting for the delalloc work to complete;
* the cloning task is waiting on the waitqueue of its reservation ticket
while holding the range with the dirty page locked in the inode's
io_tree;
* if metadata space is not released by some other task (like delalloc for
some other inode completing for example), the clone task waits forever
and as a consequence the delalloc work and async reclaim tasks will hang
forever as well. Releasing more space on the other hand may require
starting a transaction, which will hang as well when trying to reserve
metadata space, resulting in a deadlock between all these tasks.
When this happens, traces like the following show up in dmesg/syslog:

task above, because the async reclaim task has deadlocked >
(...)
Another thing to notice is that the worker task that is deadlocked when
trying to flush the destination inode of the clone operation is at
btrfs_invalidatepage(). This is simply because the clone operation has a
destination offset greater than the i_size and we only update the i_size
of the destination file after cloning an extent (just like we do in the
buffered write path).
Since the async reclaim path uses btrfs_start_delalloc_roots() to trigger
the flushing of delalloc for all inodes that have delalloc, add a runtime
flag to an inode to signal it should not be flushed, and for inodes with
that flag set, start_delalloc_inodes() will simply skip them. When the
cloning code needs to dirty a page to copy an inline extent, set that flag
on the inode and then clear it when the clone operation finishes.
This could be sporadically triggered with test case generic/269 from
fstests, which exercises many fsstress processes running in parallel with
several dd processes filling up the entire filesystem.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
