Btrfs: fix memory leak due to concurrent append writes with fiemap
When we have a buffered write that starts at an offset greater than or equals to the file's size happening concurrently with a full ranged fiemap, we can end up leaking an extent state structure. Suppose we have a file with a size of 1Mb, and before the buffered write and fiemap are performed, it has a single extent state in its io tree representing the range from 0 to 1Mb, with the EXTENT_DELALLOC bit set. The following sequence diagram shows how the memory leak happens if a fiemap a buffered write, starting at offset 1Mb and with a length of 4Kb, are performed concurrently. CPU 1 CPU 2 extent_fiemap() --> it's a full ranged fiemap range from 0 to LLONG_MAX - 1 (9223372036854775807) --> locks range in the inode's io tree --> after this we have 2 extent states in the io tree: --> 1 for range [0, 1Mb[ with the bits EXTENT_LOCKED and EXTENT_DELALLOC_BITS set --> 1 for the range [1Mb, LLONG_MAX[ with the EXTENT_LOCKED bit set --> start buffered write at offset 1Mb with a length of 4Kb btrfs_file_write_iter() btrfs_buffered_write() --> cached_state is NULL lock_and_cleanup_extent_if_need() --> returns 0 and does not lock range because it starts at current i_size / eof --> cached_state remains NULL btrfs_dirty_pages() btrfs_set_extent_delalloc() (...) __set_extent_bit() --> splits extent state for range [1Mb, LLONG_MAX[ and now we have 2 extent states: --> one for the range [1Mb, 1Mb + 4Kb[ with EXTENT_LOCKED set --> another one for the range [1Mb + 4Kb, LLONG_MAX[ with EXTENT_LOCKED set as well --> sets EXTENT_DELALLOC on the extent state for the range [1Mb, 1Mb + 4Kb[ --> caches extent state [1Mb, 1Mb + 4Kb[ into @cached_state because it has the bit EXTENT_LOCKED set --> btrfs_buffered_write() ends up with a non-NULL cached_state and never calls anything to release its reference on it, resulting in a memory leak Fix this by calling free_extent_state() on cached_state if the range was not locked by lock_and_cleanup_extent_if_need(). The same issue can happen if anything else other than fiemap locks a range that covers eof and beyond. This could be triggered, sporadically, by test case generic/561 from the fstests suite, which makes duperemove run concurrently with fsstress, and duperemove does plenty of calls to fiemap. When CONFIG_BTRFS_DEBUG is set the leak is reported in dmesg/syslog when removing the btrfs module with a message like the following: [77100.039461] BTRFS: state leak: start 6574080 end 6582271 state 16402 in tree 0 refs 1 Otherwise (CONFIG_BTRFS_DEBUG not set) detectable with kmemleak.
