Subject: Massive I/O usage from btrfs-cleaner after upgrading to 5.16
Date: Mon, 17 Jan 2022 11:06:42 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAEwRaO4y3PPPUdwYjNDoB9m9CLzfd3DFFk2iK1X6OyyEWG5-mg@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hello all,

Just in case someone is having the same issue: Btrfs (in the
btrfs-cleaner process) is taking a large amount of disk IO after
upgrading to 5.16 on one of my volumes, and multiple other people seem
to be having the same issue, see discussion in [0].

[1] is a close-up screenshot of disk I/O history (blue line is write
ops, going from a baseline of some 10 ops/s to around 1k ops/s). I
downgraded from 5.16 to 5.15 in the middle, which immediately restored
previous performance.

Common options between affected people are: ssd, autodefrag. No error
in the logs, and no other issue aside from performance (the volume
works just fine for accessing data).

One person reports that SMART stats show a massive amount of blocks
being written; unfortunately I do not have historical data for that so
I cannot confirm, but this sounds likely given what I see on what
should be a relatively new SSD.

Any idea of what it could be related to?

François-Xavier
