During the fstests run for btrfs subpage read-write support, generic/475 crashes the system with a very high chance. It turns out the cause is also affecting btrfs subpage read-only mount so it's worthy a quick fix. Also the crash call site shows a new rabbit hole of hard coded PAGE_SHIFT in readahead.There's still a lot of PAGE_SHIFT use, not all of them are wrong but I think we'll need to do an audit and categorize the valid uses, otherwise it'll be a whack-a-mole.
Already did that. The current valid use case for PAGE_SHIFT are: - Grab page Including: * compression * raid56 * relocation * buffered write in file.c * sb cross page check in volumes.c * send * zoned * sb rw in disk-io.c * tree csum in disk-io.c * free space cache v1 - Some legacy code still runs in full page mode Including: * defrag - Verification code That part has way more hardcoded part to be addressed. Will be addressed in the final part, along with selftest enhancement. Although there can be something missing, I believe it shouldn't be that hard to hit during fstests then. Thanks, Qu
