[BUG]
For compressed extents, defrag ioctl will always try to defrag any
compressed extents, wasting not only IO but also CPU time to
compress/decompress:
mkfs.btrfs -f $DEV
mount -o compress $DEV $MNT
xfs_io -f -c "pwrite -S 0xab 0 128K" $MNT/foobar
sync
xfs_io -f -c "pwrite -S 0xcd 128K 128K" $MNT/foobar
sync
echo "=== before ==="
xfs_io -c "fiemap -v" $MNT/foobar
btrfs filesystem defrag $MNT/foobar
sync
echo "=== after ==="
xfs_io -c "fiemap -v" $MNT/foobar
Then it shows the 2 128K extents just get COW for no extra benefit, with
extra IO/CPU spent:
=== before ===
/mnt/btrfs/file1:
EXT: FILE-OFFSET BLOCK-RANGE TOTAL FLAGS
0: [0..255]: 26624..26879 256 0x8
1: [256..511]: 26632..26887 256 0x9
=== after ===
/mnt/btrfs/file1:
EXT: FILE-OFFSET BLOCK-RANGE TOTAL FLAGS
0: [0..255]: 26640..26895 256 0x8
1: [256..511]: 26648..26903 256 0x9
This affects not only v5.16 (after the defrag rework), but also v5.15
(before the defrag rework).
[CAUSE]
From the very beginning, btrfs defrag never checks if one extent is
already at its max capacity (128K for compressed extents, 128M
otherwise).
And the default extent size threshold is 256K, which is already beyond
the compressed extent max size.
This means, by default btrfs defrag ioctl will mark all compressed
extent which is not adjacent to a hole/preallocated range for defrag.
[FIX]
Introduce a helper to grab the maximum extent size, and then in
defrag_collect_targets() and defrag_check_next_extent(), reject extents
which are already at their max capacity.

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.
