Brian Foster 3602df3f1f xfs: rework insert range into an atomic operation
commit dd87f87d87fa4359a54e7b44549742f579e3e805 upstream.

The insert range operation uses a unique transaction and ilock cycle
for the extent split and each extent shift iteration of the overall
operation. While this works, it is risks racing with other
operations in subtle ways such as COW writeback modifying an extent
tree in the middle of a shift operation.

To avoid this problem, make insert range atomic with respect to
ilock. Hold the ilock across the entire operation, replace the
individual transactions with a single rolling transaction sequence
and relog the inode to keep it moving in the log. This guarantees
that nothing else can change the extent mapping of an inode while
an insert range operation is in progress.

README

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.
