xfs: clean up unwritten buffers on write failure
The xfs_vm_write_failed() handler is currently responsible for cleaning
up any delalloc blocks over the range of a failed write beyond EOF.
Failure to do so results in warning messages and other inconsistencies
between buffer and extent state. The ->releasepage() handler currently
warns in the event of a page being released with either unwritten or
delalloc buffers, as neither is ever expected by the time a page is
released.
As has been reproduced by generic/083 on a -bsize=1k fs, it is currently
possible to trigger the ->releasepage() warning for a page with
unwritten buffers when a filesystem is near ENOSPC. This is reproduced
by the following sequence:
$ mkfs.xfs -f -b size=1k -d size=100m <dev>
$ mount <dev> /mnt/
$
$ xfs_io -fc "falloc -k 0 1k" /mnt/file
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/enospc conv=notrunc oflag=append
$
$ xfs_io -c "pwrite 512 1k" /mnt/file
$ xfs_io -d -c "pwrite 16k 1k" /mnt/file
The first pwrite command attempts a block unaligned write across an
unwritten block and a hole. The delalloc for the hole fails with ENOSPC
and the subsequent error handling does not clean up the unwritten buffer
that was instantiated during the first ->get_block() call.
The second pwrite triggers a warning as part of the inode mapping
invalidation that occurs prior to direct I/O. The releasepage() handler
detects the unwritten buffer at this time, warns and prevents the
release of the page.
To deal with this problem, update xfs_vm_write_failed() to clean up
unwritten as well as delalloc buffers that are beyond EOF and within the
range of the failed write.
