But defrag is not much different than reading the page and set it dirty for writeback again. It can be affected by the same memory pressure things to get split. I guess you choose compressed file extents is to bump up the subvolume tree meanwhile also compatible for all sector sizes. In that case, what about doing DIO using sectorsize of the fs? So that each dio write would result one file extent item, meanwhile since it's a single sector/page, memory pressure will never be able to writeback that sector halfway.

Defrag locks the range, the pages, then dirties the pages and then unlocks the pages. So any writeback attempt happening in parallel will wait for the pages to be unlocked. So we shouldn't get extents smaller than 128K. Did I miss anything? > > I guess you choose compressed file extents is to bump up the subvolume > tree meanwhile also compatible for all sector sizes.

I thought about DIO, but would have to leave holes between every extent (and for that I would rather use buffered IO for simplicity and probably faster). Otherwise fiemap merges all adjacent extents, you get one 8M extent reported, covering the range of the odd single profile data block group created by mkfs, and another one for the remaining of the file - it's just ugly and hard to reason about, plus that could break one day if we ever get rid of that 8M data block group. > > Thanks, > Qu > > > > Signed-off-by: Filipe Manana <fdmanana@suse.com> > > --- > > tests/btrfs/280 | 10 +++++++++- > > 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) > > > > diff --git a/tests/btrfs/280 b/tests/btrfs/280 > > index d4f613ce..0f7f8a37 100755 > > --- a/tests/btrfs/280 > > +++ b/tests/btrfs/280 > > @@ -13,7 +13,7 @@ > > # the backref walking code, used by fiemap to determine if an extent is shared. > > # > > . ./common/preamble > > -_begin_fstest auto quick compress snapshot fiemap > > +_begin_fstest auto quick compress snapshot fiemap defrag > > > > . ./common/filter > > . ./common/punch # for _filter_fiemap_flags > > @@ -36,6 +36,14 @@ _scratch_mount -o compress > > # extent tree (if the root was a leaf, we would have only data references). > > $XFS_IO_PROG -f -c "pwrite -b 1M 0 128M" $SCRATCH_MNT/foo | _filter_xfs_io > > > > +# While writing the file it's possible, but rare, that writeback kicked in due > > +# to memory pressure or a concurrent sync call for example, so we may end up > > +# with extents smaller than 128K (the maximum size for compressed extents) and > > +# therefore make the test expectations fail because we get more extents than > > +# what the golden output expects.

Yep, fiemap merging is another problem. So this looks totally fine now.
