Robbie Ko 0191410158 Btrfs: incremental send, do not issue invalid rmdir operations
When both the parent and send snapshots have a directory inode with the
same number but different generations (therefore they are different
inodes) and both have an entry with the same name, an incremental send
stream will contain an invalid rmdir operation that refers to the
orphanized name of the inode from the parent snapshot.

The following example scenario shows how this happens.

Parent snapshot:

 .
 |---- d259_old/               (ino 259, gen 9)
 |         |---- d1/           (ino 258, gen 9)
 |
 |---- f                       (ino 257, gen 9)

Send snapshot:

 .
 |---- d258/                   (ino 258, gen 7)
 |---- d259/                   (ino 259, gen 7)
         |---- d1/             (ino 257, gen 7)

When the kernel is processing inode 258 it notices that in both snapshots
there is an inode numbered 259 that is a parent of an inode 258. However
it ignores the fact that the inodes numbered 259 have different generations
in both snapshots, which means they are effectively different inodes.
Then it checks that both inodes 259 have a dentry named "d1" and because
of that it issues a rmdir operation with orphanized name of the inode 258
from the parent snapshot. This happens at send.c:process_record_refs(),
which calls send.c:did_overwrite_first_ref() that returns true and because
of that later on at process_recorded_refs() such rmdir operation is issued
because the inode being currently processed (258) is a directory and it
was deleted in the send snapshot (and replaced with another inode that has
the same number and is a directory too).
Fix this issue by comparing the generations of parent directory inodes
that have the same number and make send.c:did_overwrite_first_ref() when
the generations are different.

The following steps reproduce the problem.

 $ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdb
 $ mount /dev/sdb /mnt
 $ touch /mnt/f
 $ mkdir /mnt/d1
 $ mkdir /mnt/d259_old
 $ mv /mnt/d1 /mnt/d259_old/d1
 $ btrfs subvolume snapshot -r /mnt /mnt/snap1
 $ btrfs send /mnt/snap1 -f /tmp/1.snap
 $ umount /mnt

 $ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdc
 $ mount /dev/sdc /mnt
 $ mkdir /mnt/d1
 $ mkdir /mnt/dir258
 $ mkdir /mnt/dir259
 $ mv /mnt/d1 /mnt/dir259/d1
 $ btrfs subvolume snapshot -r /mnt /mnt/snap2
 $ btrfs receive /mnt/ -f /tmp/1.snap
 # Take note that once the filesystem is created, its current
 # generation has value 7 so the inodes from the second snapshot all have
 # a generation value of 7. And after receiving the first snapshot
 # the filesystem is at a generation value of 10, because the call to
 # create the second snapshot bumps the generation to 8 (the snapshot
 # creation ioctl does a transaction commit), the receive command calls
 # the snapshot creation ioctl to create the first snapshot, which bumps
 # the filesystem's generation to 9, and finally when the receive
 # operation finishes it calls an ioctl to transition the first snapshot
 # (snap1) from RW mode to RO mode, which does another transaction commit
 # and bumps the filesystem's generation to 10. This means all the inodes
 # in the first snapshot (snap1) have a generation value of 9.
 $ rm -f /tmp/1.snap
 $ btrfs send /mnt/snap1 -f /tmp/1.snap
 $ btrfs send -p /mnt/snap1 /mnt/snap2 -f /tmp/2.snap
 $ umount /mnt

 $ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdd
 $ mount /dev/sdd /mnt
 $ btrfs receive /mnt -f /tmp/1.snap
 $ btrfs receive -vv /mnt -f /tmp/2.snap

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
