Subject: Re: [Devel] [PATCH hci-8.1 v2 2/4] dm-ploop: renumber BAT levels when the latest snapshot is merged
Date: Wed, 28 Oct 2026 15:00:01 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <010701a18306777b-ddff02a9-4d9e-4ede-a882-06925651aefb-000000@eu-central-1.amazonses.com> (raw)

> From: Denis V. Lunev <den@openvz.org>
> 
> ploop_merge_latest_snapshot() drops the delta below the top one and
> moves the top delta down a level, but leaves bat_levels alone. Every
> cluster of the top delta then sits one level above the new top.
> 
> Checks done with "< top" do not notice, but the flip of the upper
> deltas compares levels for equality and leaves these entries alone.
> After the flip they are still taken for the top delta, so their I/O
> goes to the delta that has just become the top one, at offsets that
> belong to the other file. An ALLOC or RELOC writeback resets the
> level of every entry it writes back, which hid this for the pages
> that happened to get one.
> 
> Lower the levels above the dropped delta and clear the slot the top
> delta moved out of, as notify_delta_merged() does for a delta merged
> from userspace.
> 
> Fixes: 6ddad5a4d226 ("dm-ploop: Add ploop target driver")
> https://virtuozzo.atlassian.net/browse/VSTOR-151979
> 
> Signed-off-by: Denis V. Lunev <den@openvz.org>
