The offending system is indeed ARMv7 (specifically a
Marvell ARMADA®
388), but I believe the Broadcom BCM2835 in my Raspberry
Pi is
actually ARMv6 (with hardware float support).
Using NBD, I have verified that I receive the same error
when
attempting to mount the filesystem on my ARMv6 Raspberry
Pi:
[ 3491.339572] BTRFS info (device dm-4): disk space

The Raspberry Pi is running Linux 5.4.83.
Okay, after some more testing, ARM seems to be irrelevant,
and 32-bit
is the key factor. On a whim, I booted up an i686, 5.8.14
kernel in a
VM, attached the drives via NBD, ran cryptsetup, tried to
mount, and…
I got the exact same error message.
My educated guess is on 32bit platforms, we passed
incorrect sector into
bio, thus gave us garbage.
To prove that, you can use bcc tool to verify it.
biosnoop can do that:
https://github.com/iovisor/bcc/blob/master/tools/biosnoop_example.txt

Just try mount the fs with biosnoop running.
With "btrfs ins dump-tree -t chunk <dev>", we can manually
calculate the
offset of each read to see if they matches.
If not match, it would prove my assumption and give us a
pretty good
clue to fix.

Is this bug happening only on the fs, or any other btrfs
can also
trigger similar problems on 32bit platforms?

Thanks,

I have only observed this error on this file system.
Additionally, the
error mounting with the NAS only started after I did a `btrfs
replace`
on all five 8TB drives using an x86_64 system. (Ironically, I
did this
with the goal of making it faster to use the filesystem on
the NAS by
re-encrypting the drives to use a cipher supported by my
NAS's crypto
accelerator.)

Maybe this process of shuffling 40TB around caused some value
in the
filesystem to increment to the point that a calculation using
it
overflows on 32-bit systems?

I should be able to try biosnoop later this week, and I'll
report back
with the results.
Okay, I tried running biosnoop, but I seem to be running into
this
bug: https://github.com/iovisor/bcc/issues/3241 (That bug was
reported
for cpudist, but I'm seeing the same error when I try to run
biosnoop.)

Anything else I can try?
Is it possible to add printks to retrieve the same data?
Sorry for the late reply, busying testing subpage patchset. (And
unfortunately no much process).

If bcc is not possible, you can still use ftrace events, but
unfortunately I didn't find good enough one. (In fact, the trace
events
for block layer is pretty limited).

You can try to add printk()s in function blk_account_io_done()
to
emulate what's done in function trace_req_completion() of
biosnoop.

The time delta is not important, we only need the device name,
sector
and length.
Tips: There are ftrace events called block:block_rq_issue and
block:block_rq_complete to fetch those infomation. No need to
add printk().

Okay, here's the output of the trace:
https://gist.github.com/rkjnsn/4cf606874962b5a0284249b2f2e934f5

And here's the output dump-tree:
https://gist.github.com/rkjnsn/630b558eaf90369478d670a1cb54b40f

One important note is that ftrace only captured requests at the
underlying block device (nbd, in this case), not at the device mapper
level. The encryption header on these drives is 16 MiB, so the offset
reported in the trace will be 16777216 bytes larger than the offset
brtfs was actually trying to read at the time.

In case it's helpful, I believe this is the mapping of which
(encrypted) nbd device node in the trace corresponds to which
(decrypted) filesystem device:
