btrfs: stripe_alloc: settle a logged extent's stripes at log commit
Stripe-exclusive allocation bounds degraded-crash damage to the current
transaction, but within that window two log commits can still share a
stripe: fsync 1 writes the head of a stripe, the open run keeps filling
it, and a later write's read-modify-write rewrites the parity that
protects fsync 1's data. A degraded crash during the second write tears
the first -- the write hole's shape, confined to the log window, and the
reason the fsync guarantee has so far been "loss is detectable" rather
than "completed fsyncs survive".
Close it with a case analysis. A logged extent in a full stripe is
already safe: nothing ever writes a full stripe again, since COW never
overwrites and there are no free sectors left to allocate. A logged
extent in a partial stripe is exposed only to future writes into that
stripe's remaining sectors -- so at log commit, close the stripe's open
run (nothing further allocates into it), kick any parked partial writes
for it, and wait for its in-flight data IO before the log super is
written. This is the log-window analogue of invariant I2, which the
commit-time retirement provides for full commits. Both log paths are
hooked: the fast path per extent map in log_one_extent(), and the
full-sync path where copy_items() walks new data extents (old-transaction
extents are skipped there, and are exactly the ones already settled by
their own commit).
The drain is bounded and join-free: run inflight is counted from
allocation, which happens during writeback with submission following in
the same pass, so the wait is bio flight time plus the parked-write
deadline that the flush short-circuits; write_done reporting needs no
transaction join, so waiting under the inode log mutex and a running
transaction handle is safe.
The cost is spatial: every fsync that logs an extent in a partial stripe
retires that stripe early, trapping its unwritten tail like any other
partially filled stripe until it frees or balance reclaims it.
Fsync-heavy workloads therefore burn a stripe tail per touched stripe
per fsync; the follow-up per-inode log runs and copy-forward relocation
exist to reclaim exactly that cost, and are optimizations on top of the
guarantee this patch completes.
