btrfs: tree-checker: Don't check max block group size as current max chunk size limit is unreliable
[BUG] A completely valid btrfs will refuse to mount, with error message like: BTRFS critical (device sdb2): corrupt leaf: root=2 block=239681536 slot=172 \ bg_start=12018974720 bg_len=10888413184, invalid block group size, \ have 10888413184 expect (0, 10737418240] This has been reported several times as the 4.19 kernel is now being used. The filesystem refuses to mount, but is otherwise ok and booting 4.18 is a workaround. Btrfs check returns no error, and all kernels used on this fs is later than 2011, which should all have the 10G size limit commit. [CAUSE] For a 12 devices btrfs, we could allocate a chunk larger than 10G due to stripe stripe bump up. __btrfs_alloc_chunk() |- max_stripe_size = 1G |- max_chunk_size = 10G |- data_stripe = 11 |- if (1G * 11 > 10G) { stripe_size = 976128930; stripe_size = round_up(976128930, SZ_16M) = 989855744 However the final stripe_size (989855744) * 11 = 10888413184, which is still larger than 10G. [FIX] For the comprehensive check, we need to do the full check at chunk read time, and rely on bg <-> chunk mapping to do the check. We could just skip the length check for now.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
