There is one case can cause data corruption.
- write 4k to fileA
- fsync fileA, 4k data is writebacked to lbaA
- write 4k to fileA
- kworker flushs 4k to lbaB; dnode contain lbaB didn't be persisted yet
- write 4k to fileB
- kworker flush 4k to lbaA due to SSR
- SPOR -> dnode with lbaA will be recovered, however lbaA contains fileB's
data
One solution is tracking all fsynced file's block history, and disallow
SSR overwrite on newly invalidated block on that file.
However, during recovery, no matter the dnode is flushed or fsynced, all
previous dnodes until last fsynced one in node chain can be recovered,
that means we need to record all block change in flushed dnode, which
will cause heavy cost, so let's just use simple fix by forbidding SSR
overwrite directly.

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.
