btrfs: remove device item and update super block in the same transaction
[BUG]
There is a report that a btrfs has a bad super block num devices.
This makes btrfs to reject the fs completely.
BTRFS error (device sdd3): super_num_devices 3 mismatch with num_devices 2 found here
BTRFS error (device sdd3): failed to read chunk tree: -22
BTRFS error (device sdd3): open_ctree failed
[CAUSE]
During btrfs device removal, chunk tree and super block num devs are
updated in two different transactions:
btrfs_rm_device()
|- btrfs_rm_dev_item(device)
| |- trans = btrfs_start_transaction()
| | Now we got transaction X
| |
| |- btrfs_del_item()
| | Now device item is removed from chunk tree
| |
| |- btrfs_commit_transaction()
| Transaction X got committed, super num devs untouched,
| but device item removed from chunk tree.
| (AKA, super num devs is already incorrect)
|
|- cur_devices->num_devices--;
|- cur_devices->total_devices--;
|- btrfs_set_super_num_devices()
All those operations are not in transaction X, thus it will
only be written back to disk in next transaction.
So after the transaction X in btrfs_rm_dev_item() committed, but before
transaction X+1 (which can be minutes away), a power loss happen, then
we got the super num mismatch.
[FIX]
Instead of starting and committing a transaction inside
btrfs_rm_dev_item(), start a transaction in side btrfs_rm_device() and
pass it to btrfs_rm_dev_item().
And only commit the transaction after everything is done.
