    Btrfs: separate sequence numbers for delayed ref tracking and tree mod log · fc36ed7e
    Jan Schmidt 提交于
    Sequence numbers for delayed refs have been introduced in the first version
    of the qgroup patch set. To solve the problem of find_all_roots on a busy
    file system, the tree mod log was introduced. The sequence numbers for that
    were simply shared between those two users.
    
    However, at one point in qgroup's quota accounting, there's a statement
    accessing the previous sequence number, that's still just doing (seq - 1)
    just as it would have to in the very first version.
    
    To satisfy that requirement, this patch makes the sequence number counter 64
    bit and splits it into a major part (used for qgroup sequence number
    counting) and a minor part (incremented for each tree modification in the
    log). This enables us to go exactly one major step backwards, as required
    for qgroups, while still incrementing the sequence counter for tree mod log
    insertions to keep track of their order. Keeping them in a single variable
    means there's no need to change all the code dealing with comparisons of two
    sequence numbers.
    
    The sequence number is reset to 0 on commit (not new in this patch), which
    ensures we won't overflow the two 32 bit counters.
    
    Without this fix, the qgroup tracking can occasionally go wrong and WARN_ONs
    from the tree mod log code may happen.
