We've been seeing XFS errors like the following:
XFS: Internal error i != 1 at line 3526 of file fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_btree.c. Caller xfs_btree_insert+0x1ec/0x280
...
Call Trace:
xfs_corruption_error+0x94/0xa0

xfs_free_extent_fix_freelist+0x65/0xa0
__xfs_free_extent+0x57/0x180
...
This is the XFS_IS_CORRUPT() check in xfs_btree_insert() when
xfs_btree_insrec() fails.
After converting this into a panic and dissecting the core dump, I found
that xfs_btree_insrec() is failing because it's trying to split a leaf
node in the cntbt when the AG free list is empty. In particular, it's
failing to get a block from the AGFL _while trying to refill the AGFL_.
If a single operation splits every level of the bnobt and the cntbt (and
the rmapbt if it is enabled) at once, the free list will be empty. Then,
when the next operation tries to refill the free list, it allocates
space. If the allocation does not use a full extent, it will need to
insert records for the remaining space in the bnobt and cntbt. And if
those new records go in full leaves, the leaves (and potentially more
nodes up to the old root) need to be split.
Fix it by accounting for the additional splits that may be required to
refill the free list in the calculation for the minimum free list size.
P.S. As far as I can tell, this bug has existed for a long time -- maybe
back to xfs-history commit afdf80ae7405 ("Add XFS_AG_MAXLEVELS macros
...") in April 1994! It requires a very unlucky sequence of events, and
in fact we didn't hit it until a particular sparse mmap workload updated
from 5.12 to 5.19. But this bug existed in 5.12, so it must've been
exposed by some other change in allocation or writeback patterns. It's
also much less likely to be hit with the rmapbt enabled, since that
increases the minimum free list size and is unlikely to split at the
same time as the bnobt and cntbt.

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.
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.
