      btrfs: Fix and enhance merge_extent_mapping() to insert best fitted extent map · e6c4efd8
      Qu Wenruo authored
      The following commit enhanced the merge_extent_mapping() to reduce
      fragment in extent map tree, but it can't handle case which existing
      lies before map_start:
      51f39 btrfs: Use right extent length when inserting overlap extent map.
      
      [BUG]
      When existing extent map's start is before map_start,
      the em->len will be minus, which will corrupt the extent map and fail to
      insert the new extent map.
      This will happen when someone get a large extent map, but when it is
      going to insert it into extent map tree, some one has already commit
      some write and split the huge extent into small parts.
      
      [REPRODUCER]
      It is very easy to tiger using filebench with randomrw personality.
      It is about 100% to reproduce when using 8G preallocated file in 60s
      randonrw test.
      
      [FIX]
      This patch can now handle any existing extent position.
      Since it does not directly use existing->start, now it will find the
      previous and next extent around map_start.
      So the old existing->start < map_start bug will never happen again.
      
      [ENHANCE]
      This patch will insert the best fitted extent map into extent map tree,
      other than the oldest [map_start, map_start + sectorsize) or the
      relatively newer but not perfect [map_start, existing->start).
      
      The patch will first search existing extent that does not intersects with
      the desired map range [map_start, map_start + len).
      The existing extent will be either before or behind map_start, and based
      on the existing extent, we can find out the previous and next extent
      around map_start.
      
      So the best fitted extent would be [prev->end, next->start).
      For prev or next is not found, em->start would be prev->end and em->end
      wold be next->start.
      
      With this patch, the fragment in extent map tree should be reduced much
      more than the 51f39 commit and reduce an unneeded extent map tree search.
