Chris Mason c4b460b5fa btrfs: only subtract from len_to_oe_boundary when it is tracking an extent 
commit 09c3717c3a upstream.

bio_ctrl->len_to_oe_boundary is used to make sure we stay inside a zone
as we submit bios for writes.  Every time we add a page to the bio, we
decrement those bytes from len_to_oe_boundary, and then we submit the
bio if we happen to hit zero.

Most of the time, len_to_oe_boundary gets set to U32_MAX.
submit_extent_page() adds pages into our bio, and the size of the bio
ends up limited by:

- Are we contiguous on disk?
- Does bio_add_page() allow us to stuff more in?
- is len_to_oe_boundary > 0?

The len_to_oe_boundary math starts with U32_MAX, which isn't page or
sector aligned, and subtracts from it until it hits zero.  In the
non-zoned case, the last IO we submit before we hit zero is going to be
unaligned, triggering BUGs.

This is hard to trigger because bio_add_page() isn't going to make a bio
of U32_MAX size unless you give it a perfect set of pages and fully
contiguous extents on disk.  We can hit it pretty reliably while making
large swapfiles during provisioning because the machine is freshly
booted, mostly idle, and the disk is freshly formatted.  It's also
possible to trigger with reads when read_ahead_kb is set to 4GB.

The code has been clean up and shifted around a few times, but this flaw
has been lurking since the counter was added.  I think the commit
24e6c80822 ("btrfs: simplify main loop in submit_extent_page") ended
up exposing the bug.

The fix used here is to skip doing math on len_to_oe_boundary unless
we've changed it from the default U32_MAX value.  bio_add_page() is the
real limit we want, and there's no reason to do extra math when block
layer is doing it for us.

Sample reproducer, note you'll need to change the path to the bdi and
device:

  SUBVOL=/btrfs/swapvol
  SWAPFILE=$SUBVOL/swapfile
  SZMB=8192

  mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/vdb
  mount /dev/vdb /btrfs

  btrfs subvol create $SUBVOL
  chattr +C $SUBVOL
  dd if=/dev/zero of=$SWAPFILE bs=1M count=$SZMB
  sync

  echo 4 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches

  echo 4194304 > /sys/class/bdi/btrfs-2/read_ahead_kb

  while true; do
	  echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
	  echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
	  dd of=/dev/zero if=$SWAPFILE bs=4096M count=2 iflag=fullblock
  done

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
