dm space map metadata: fix bug in resizing of thin metadata
This bug was introduced in commit 7e664b3d ("dm space map metadata: fix extending the space map"). When extending a dm-thin metadata volume we: - Switch the space map into a simple bootstrap mode, which allocates all space linearly from the newly added space. - Add new bitmap entries for the new space - Increment the reference counts for those newly allocated bitmap entries - Commit changes to disk - Switch back out of bootstrap mode. But, the disk commit may allocate space itself, if so this fact will be lost when switching out of bootstrap mode. The bug exhibited itself as an error when the bitmap_root, with an erroneous ref count of 0, was subsequently decremented as part of a later disk commit. This would cause the disk commit to fail, and thinp to enter read_only mode. The metadata was not damaged (thin_check passed). The fix is to put the increments + commit into a loop, running until the commit has not allocated extra space. In practise this loop only runs twice. With this fix the following device mapper testsuite test passes: dmtest run --suite thin-provisioning -n thin_remove_works_after_resize Signed-off-by: NJoe Thornber <ejt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NMike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # depends on commit 7e664b3d
