[ Upstream commit 102ed2c5ff932439bbbe74c7bd63e6d5baa9f732 ] When one of the device is missing, bbio_error() takes care of setting the error status. And if its only IO that is pending in that stripe, it fails to check the status of the other IO at %bbio_error before setting the error %bi_status for the %orig_bio. Fix this by checking if %bbio->error has exceeded the %bbio->max_errors. Reproducer as below fdatasync error is seen intermittently. mount -o degraded /dev/sdc /btrfs dd status=none if=/dev/zero of=$(mktemp /btrfs/XXX) bs=4096 count=1 conv=fdatasync dd: fdatasync failed for ‘/btrfs/LSe’: Input/output error The reason for the intermittences of the problem is because the following conditions have to be met, which depends on timing: In btrfs_map_bio() - the RAID1 the missing device has to be at %dev_nr = 1 In bbio_error() . before bbio_error() is called the bio of the not-missing device at %dev_nr = 0 must be completed so that the below condition is true if (atomic_dec_and_test(&bbio->stripes_pending)) { Signed-off-by: Anand Jain <anand.jain@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Liu Bo <bo.li.liu@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <alexander.levin@verizon.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
