[ Upstream commit f9eab5f0bb ]
[BUG]
The following script shows that, although scrub can detect super block
errors, it never tries to fix it:
mkfs.btrfs -f -d raid1 -m raid1 $dev1 $dev2
xfs_io -c "pwrite 67108864 4k" $dev2
mount $dev1 $mnt
btrfs scrub start -B $dev2
btrfs scrub start -Br $dev2
umount $mnt
The first scrub reports the super error correctly:
scrub done for f3289218-abd3-41ac-a630-202f766c0859
Scrub started: Tue Aug 2 14:44:11 2022
Status: finished
Duration: 0:00:00
Total to scrub: 1.26GiB
Rate: 0.00B/s
Error summary: super=1
Corrected: 0
Uncorrectable: 0
Unverified: 0
But the second read-only scrub still reports the same super error:
Scrub started: Tue Aug 2 14:44:11 2022
Status: finished
Duration: 0:00:00
Total to scrub: 1.26GiB
Rate: 0.00B/s
Error summary: super=1
Corrected: 0
Uncorrectable: 0
Unverified: 0
[CAUSE]
The comments already shows that super block can be easily fixed by
committing a transaction:
/*
* If we find an error in a super block, we just report it.
* They will get written with the next transaction commit
* anyway
*/
But the truth is, such assumption is not always true, and since scrub
should try to repair every error it found (except for read-only scrub),
we should really actively commit a transaction to fix this.
[FIX]
Just commit a transaction if we found any super block errors, after
everything else is done.
We cannot do this just after scrub_supers(), as
btrfs_commit_transaction() will try to pause and wait for the running
scrub, thus we can not call it with scrub_lock hold.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
