A NFS, xfs, reflink and rmapbt story

[Murphy Zhou <jencce.kernel@gmail.com>]

Hi,

Deleting the files left by generic/175 costs too much time when testing
on NFSv4.2 exporting xfs with rmapbt=1.

"./check -nfs generic/175 generic/176" should reproduce it.

My test bed is a 16c8G vm.

NFSv4.2  rmapbt=1   24h+
NFSv4.2  rmapbt=0   1h-2h
xfs      rmapbt=1   10m+

At first I thought it hung, turns out it was just slow when deleting
2 massive reflined files.

It's reproducible using latest Linus tree, and Darrick's deferred-inactivation
branch. Run latest for-next branch xfsprogs.

I'm not sure it's something wrong, just sharing with you guys. I don't
remember I have identified this as a regression. It should be there for
a long time.

Sending to xfs and nfs because it looks like all related. :)

This almost gets lost in my list. Not much information recorded, some
trace-cmd outputs for your info. It's easy to reproduce. If it's
interesting to you and need any info, feel free to ask.

Thanks,
