Filipe Manana d994788743 btrfs: fix lost prealloc extents beyond eof after full fsync
When doing a full fsync, if we have prealloc extents beyond (or at) eof,
and the leaves that contain them were not modified in the current
transaction, we end up not logging them. This results in losing those
extents when we replay the log after a power failure, since the inode is
truncated to the current value of the logged i_size.

Just like for the fast fsync path, we need to always log all prealloc
extents starting at or beyond i_size. The fast fsync case was fixed in
commit 471d557afe ("Btrfs: fix loss of prealloc extents past i_size
after fsync log replay") but it missed the full fsync path. The problem
exists since the very early days, when the log tree was added by
commit e02119d5a7 ("Btrfs: Add a write ahead tree log to optimize
synchronous operations").

Example reproducer:

  $ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdc
  $ mount /dev/sdc /mnt

  # Create our test file with many file extent items, so that they span
  # several leaves of metadata, even if the node/page size is 64K. Use
  # direct IO and not fsync/O_SYNC because it's both faster and it avoids
  # clearing the full sync flag from the inode - we want the fsync below
  # to trigger the slow full sync code path.
  $ xfs_io -f -d -c "pwrite -b 4K 0 16M" /mnt/foo

  # Now add two preallocated extents to our file without extending the
  # file's size. One right at i_size, and another further beyond, leaving
  # a gap between the two prealloc extents.
  $ xfs_io -c "falloc -k 16M 1M" /mnt/foo
  $ xfs_io -c "falloc -k 20M 1M" /mnt/foo

  # Make sure everything is durably persisted and the transaction is
  # committed. This makes all created extents to have a generation lower
  # than the generation of the transaction used by the next write and
  # fsync.
  sync

  # Now overwrite only the first extent, which will result in modifying
  # only the first leaf of metadata for our inode. Then fsync it. This
  # fsync will use the slow code path (inode full sync bit is set) because
  # it's the first fsync since the inode was created/loaded.
  $ xfs_io -c "pwrite 0 4K" -c "fsync" /mnt/foo

  # Extent list before power failure.
  $ xfs_io -c "fiemap -v" /mnt/foo
  /mnt/foo:
   EXT: FILE-OFFSET      BLOCK-RANGE      TOTAL FLAGS
     0: [0..7]:          2178048..2178055     8   0x0
     1: [8..16383]:      26632..43007     16376   0x0
     2: [16384..32767]:  2156544..2172927 16384   0x0
     3: [32768..34815]:  2172928..2174975  2048 0x800
     4: [34816..40959]:  hole              6144
     5: [40960..43007]:  2174976..2177023  2048 0x801

  <power fail>

  # Mount fs again, trigger log replay.
  $ mount /dev/sdc /mnt

  # Extent list after power failure and log replay.
  $ xfs_io -c "fiemap -v" /mnt/foo
  /mnt/foo:
   EXT: FILE-OFFSET      BLOCK-RANGE      TOTAL FLAGS
     0: [0..7]:          2178048..2178055     8   0x0
     1: [8..16383]:      26632..43007     16376   0x0
     2: [16384..32767]:  2156544..2172927 16384   0x1

  # The prealloc extents at file offsets 16M and 20M are missing.

So fix this by calling btrfs_log_prealloc_extents() when we are doing a
full fsync, so that we always log all prealloc extents beyond eof.

A test case for fstests will follow soon.

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.
