Hi there, bug: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=101951 and also https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1532145 Commit 4bacc9c9234c7c8eec44f5ed4e960d9f96fa0f01 ("overlayfs: Make f_path always point to the overlay and f_inode to the underlay") resulted in an issue when using a combination of btrfs and overlayfs. This is noticeable when doing a fsync() on a file in a chroot with overlayfs on top of btrfs; we hit a kernel oops in btrfs_sync_file() on atomic_inc(&root->log_batch) because root is NULL. I've debugged this further and found that in btrfs_sync_file(): struct inode *inode = d_inode(dentry); does not return the inode I expected when using the stacked overlay fs, where as: struct inode *inode = file_inode(file); does. However, I'm not well at all well versed in btrfs, so I am not confident this is a actually correct. Any comments?
