The above problem can also be recreated on a regular xfs filesystem
using the command,
$ fsstress -d /mnt -l 1000 -n 1000 -p 1000
The reason for the call trace is,
1. When 'reserving' blocks for delayed allocation , XFS reserves more
blocks (i.e. past file's current EOF) than required. This is done
because XFS assumes that userspace might write more data and hence
'reserving' more blocks might lead to the file's new data being
stored contiguously on disk.
2. The in-memory 'struct xfs_bmbt_irec' mapping the file's last extent would
then cover the prealloc-ed EOF blocks in addition to the regular blocks.
3. When flushing the dirty blocks to disk, we only flush data till the
file's EOF. But before writing out the dirty data, we allocate blocks
on the disk for holding the file's new data. This allocation includes
the blocks that are part of the 'prealloc EOF blocks'.
4. Later, when the last reference to the inode is being closed, XFS frees the
unused 'prealloc EOF blocks' in xfs_inactive().
In step 3 above, When allocating space on disk for the delayed allocation
range, the space allocator might sometimes allocate less blocks than
required. If such an allocation ends right at the current EOF of the
file, We will not be able to clear the "delayed allocation" flag for the
'prealloc EOF blocks', since we won't have dirty buffer heads associated
with that range of the file.
In such a situation if a Direct I/O read operation is performed on file
range [X, Y] (where X < EOF and Y > EOF), we flush dirty data in the
range [X, Y] and invalidate page cache for that range (Refer to
iomap_dio_rw()). Later for performing the Direct I/O read, XFS obtains
the extent items (which are still cached in memory) for the file
range. When doing so we are not supposed to get an extent item with
IOMAP_DELALLOC flag set, since the previous "flush" operation should
have converted any delayed allocation data in the range [X, Y]. Hence we
end up hitting a WARN_ON_ONCE(1) statement in iomap_dio_actor().
This commit fixes the bug by preventing the read operation from going
beyond iomap_dio->i_size.
