[review] Btrfs: Allow shrinking close to used space

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

This patch (against experimental HEAD) attempts to make shrinking more
robust, by only updating device size if we've succeeded in creating
enough free space without any failures in btrfs_relocate_chunk().

Here's a log with my patch applied.  The two things to note are that a
near-limit shrink now works, and that a failed shrink (in this case,
trying to shrink to less than the used space) no longer updates the
device size erroneously:

  http://dev.laptop.org/~cjb/btrfs/shrink-log

Please review carefully -- I'm still new to btrfs.  The short version of
the patch is:

* create a success path, as a break out of the while(1) relocating
  (rather than going to the "done" label).
* move the device size updating code into that path
* leave "path->reada = 2;" behind in the entry path, since path is
  used by the searching operation rather than the later resize.

Thanks!
