[XFS] In actual allocation of file system blocks and freeing extents, the

Browse Source 
transaction within each such operation may involve multiple locking of AGF
buffer. While the freeing extent function has sorted the extents based on
AGF number before entering into transaction, however, when the file system
space is very limited, the allocation of space would try every AGF to get
space allocated, this could potentially cause out-of-order locking, thus
deadlock could happen. This fix mitigates the scarce space for allocation
by setting aside a few blocks without reservation, and avoid deadlock by
maintaining ascending order of AGF locking.

/*
* In order to avoid ENOSPC-related deadlock caused by
* out-of-order locking of AGF buffer (PV 947395), we place
* constraints on the relationship among actual allocations for
* data blocks, freelist blocks, and potential file data bmap
* btree blocks. However, these restrictions may result in no
* actual space allocated for a delayed extent, for example, a data
* block in a certain AG is allocated but there is no additional
* block for the additional bmap btree block due to a split of the
* bmap btree of the file. The result of this may lead to an
* infinite loop in xfssyncd when the file gets flushed to disk and
* all delayed extents need to be actually allocated. To get around
* this, we explicitly set aside a few blocks which will not be
* reserved in delayed allocation. Considering the minimum number of
* needed freelist blocks is 4 fsbs, a potential split of file's bmap
* btree requires 1 fsb, so we set the number of set-aside blocks to 8.
