We were using only 1 transaction unit when attempting to delete an unused block group but in reality we need 3 + N units, where N corresponds to the number of stripes. We were accounting only for the addition of the orphan item (for the block group's free space cache inode) but we were not accounting that we need to delete one block group item from the extent tree, one free space item from the tree of tree roots and N device extent items from the device tree. While one unit is not enough, it worked most of the time because for each single unit we are too pessimistic and assume an entire tree path, with the highest possible heigth (8), needs to be COWed with eventual node splits at every possible level in the tree, so there was usually enough reserved space for removing all the items and adding the orphan item. However after adding the orphan item, writepages() can by called by the VM subsystem against the btree inode when we are under memory pressure, which causes writeback to start for the nodes we COWed before, this forces the operation to remove the free space item to COW again some (or all of) the same nodes (in the tree of tree roots). Even without writepages() being called, we could fail with ENOSPC because these items are located in multiple trees and one of them might have a higher heigth and require node/leaf splits at many levels, exhausting all the reserved space before removing all the items and adding the orphan. In the kernel 4.0 release, commit 3d84be79 ("Btrfs: fix BUG_ON in btrfs_orphan_add() when delete unused block group"), we attempted to fix a BUG_ON due to ENOSPC when trying to add the orphan item by making the cleaner kthread reserve one transaction unit before attempting to remove the block group, but this was not enough. We had a couple user reports still hitting the same BUG_ON after 4.0, like Stefan Priebe's report on a 4.2-rc6 kernel for example: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-btrfs/msg46070.html So fix this by reserving all the necessary units of metadata.
