Btrfs: fix fsync after succession of renames and unlink/rmdir
After a succession of renames operations of different files and unlinking one of them, if we fsync one of the renamed files we can end up with a log that will either fail to replay at mount time or result in a filesystem that is in an inconsistent state. One example scenario: $ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdb $ mount /dev/sdb /mnt $ mkdir /mnt/testdir $ touch /mnt/testdir/fname1 $ touch /mnt/testdir/fname2 $ sync $ mv /mnt/testdir/fname1 /mnt/testdir/fname3 $ rm -f /mnt/testdir/fname2 $ ln /mnt/testdir/fname3 /mnt/testdir/fname2 $ touch /mnt/testdir/fname1 $ xfs_io -c "fsync" /mnt/testdir/fname1 <power failure> $ mount /dev/sdb /mnt $ umount /mnt $ btrfs check /dev/sdb [1/7] checking root items [2/7] checking extents [3/7] checking free space cache [4/7] checking fs roots root 5 inode 259 errors 2, no orphan item ERROR: errors found in fs roots Opening filesystem to check...

A test case for fstests follows soon. Reviewed-by: Nikolay Borisov <nborisov@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Filipe Manana <fdmanana@suse.com> Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com>
