Even we did super block verification in commit 75cb857d2618
("btrfs: Do super block verification before writing it to disk"), it
doesn't check generation against transaction as generation corruption is
not that obvious.
This allows super block generation corruption sneak in.
So in this patch, btrfs will check super block generation by:
- Check it against expected transid
We have 2 different callers who writes all super blocks:
* btrfs_commit_transaction()
The expected generation is trans->transid.
* btrfs_sync_log()
The expected generation is trans->transid - 1, since we only
update log_root, while not updating generation.
- Chech it against backup roots
For backup roots, we should not have any backup roots newer than our
current expected generation.
NOTE: Normally we should have a backup root matching the expected
generation, but btrfs-progs doesn't update backup roots, which
makes a valid repaired fs undergoing fsync() to trigger false
alerts. So we don't require backup roots to match generation
yet.
With above solution, at least we should be able to catch potential
generation corruption early on.
