Please ignore the patch, since __btrfs_alloc_chun() has other problems, mainly a mixed calculation on on-disk space and logical space. So I will send a patch first fixing the on-disk space and logical space things and implement the half-half on-disk space allocation algorithm on the base of that patch. Thanks, Qu -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [PATCH v2] btrfs: Enhance btrfs chunk allocation algorithm to reduce ENOSPC caused by unbalanced data/metadata allocation.

When btrfs allocate a chunk, it will try to alloc up to 1G for data and 256M for metadata, or 10% of all the writeable space if there is enough space for the stripe on device. However, when we run out of space, this allocation may cause unbalanced chunk allocation. For example, there are only 1G unallocated space, and request for allocate DATA chunk is sent, and all the space will be allocated as data chunk, making later metadata chunk alloc request unable to handle, which will cause ENOSPC. This is the one of the common complains from end users about why ENOSPC happens but there is still available space. This patch will try not to alloc chunk which is more than half of the unallocated space, making the last space more balanced at a small cost of more fragmented chunk at the last 1G. Some easy example: Preallocate 17.5G on a 20G empty btrfs fs: [Before] # btrfs fi show /mnt/test Label: none uuid: da8741b1-5d47-4245-9e94-bfccea34e91e Total devices 1 FS bytes used 17.50GiB devid 1 size 20.00GiB used 20.00GiB path /dev/sdb All space is allocated. No space later metadata space. [After] # btrfs fi show /mnt/test Label: none uuid: e6935aeb-a232-4140-84f9-80aab1f23d56 Total devices 1 FS bytes used 17.50GiB devid 1 size 20.00GiB used 19.77GiB path /dev/sdb About 230M is still available for later metadata allocation.
