btrfs: preallocate anon block device at first phase of snapshot creation
[BUG] When the anonymous block device pool is exhausted, subvolume/snapshot creation fails with EMFILE (Too many files open). This has been reported by a user. The allocation happens in the second phase during transaction commit where it's only way out is to abort the transaction BTRFS: Transaction aborted (error -24) WARNING: CPU: 17 PID: 17041 at fs/btrfs/transaction.c:1576 create_pending_snapshot+0xbc4/0xd10 [btrfs] RIP: 0010:create_pending_snapshot+0xbc4/0xd10 [btrfs] Call Trace: create_pending_snapshots+0x82/0xa0 [btrfs] btrfs_commit_transaction+0x275/0x8c0 [btrfs] btrfs_mksubvol+0x4b9/0x500 [btrfs] btrfs_ioctl_snap_create_transid+0x174/0x180 [btrfs] btrfs_ioctl_snap_create_v2+0x11c/0x180 [btrfs] btrfs_ioctl+0x11a4/0x2da0 [btrfs] do_vfs_ioctl+0xa9/0x640 ksys_ioctl+0x67/0x90 __x64_sys_ioctl+0x1a/0x20 do_syscall_64+0x5a/0x110 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9 ---[ end trace 33f2f83f3d5250e9 ]--- BTRFS: error (device sda1) in create_pending_snapshot:1576: errno=-24 unknown BTRFS info (device sda1): forced readonly BTRFS warning (device sda1): Skipping commit of aborted transaction. BTRFS: error (device sda1) in cleanup_transaction:1831: errno=-24 unknown [CAUSE] When the global anonymous block device pool is exhausted, the following call chain will fail, and lead to transaction abort: btrfs_ioctl_snap_create_v2() |- btrfs_ioctl_snap_create_transid() |- btrfs_mksubvol() |- btrfs_commit_transaction() |- create_pending_snapshot() |- btrfs_get_fs_root() |- btrfs_init_fs_root() |- get_anon_bdev() [FIX] Although we can't enlarge the anonymous block device pool, at least we can preallocate anon_dev for subvolume/snapshot in the first phase, outside of transaction context and exactly at the moment the user calls the creation ioctl.
