I have a file server with 4 cpu cores and 5 btrfs devices:

I have a very long running btrfs send/receive from btrfs_pool1 to bigbackup
(long running meaning that it's been slowly copying over 5 days)
The problem is that this is blocking IO to btrfs_pool2 which is using
totally different drives.
By blocking IO I mean that IO to pool2 kind of works sometimes, and
hangs for very long times at other times.
It looks as if one rsync to btrfs_pool2 or one piece of IO hangs on a shared lock
and once that happens, all IO to btrfs_pool2 stops for a long time.
It does recover eventually without reboot, but the wait times are ridiculous (it
could be 1H or more).
As I write this, I have a killall -9 rsync that waited for over 10mn before
these processes would finally die:
23555 07:36 wait_current_trans.isra.15 rsync -av -SH --delete (...)
23556 07:36 exit [rsync] <defunct>
25387 2-04:41:22 wait_current_trans.isra.15 rsync --password-file (...)
27481 31:26 wait_current_trans.isra.15 rsync --password-file (...)
29268 04:41:34 wait_current_trans.isra.15 rsync --password-file (...)
29343 04:41:31 exit [rsync] <defunct>
29492 04:41:27 wait_current_trans.isra.15 rsync --password-file (...)
14559 07:14:49 wait_current_trans.isra.15 cp -i -al current 20140312-feisty
This is all stuck in btrfs kernel code.
If someeone wants sysrq-w, there it is.

(there are more in the logs attached on what those lockups are)
Thankfully my btrfs send/receive is still working and should finish
today, but the amount of time it's been taking has been painful, and
the effect it's been having on the rest of my system, making it hang
or rendering its devices unusable for long periods of time, has been
punishing.
Can someone figure out from the kernel logs what is causing those near deadlocks?
Actually this was so bad apparently that sysrq w didn't even all make it
to syslog/disk (also on btrfs) but thankfully I got it on serial console.
I also found this suring sysrq. Shouldit be reported to someone else?
