Btrfs: prevent ioctls from interfering with a swap file
A later patch will implement swap file support for Btrfs, but before we do that, we need to make sure that the various Btrfs ioctls cannot change a swap file. When a swap file is active, we must make sure that the extents of the file are not moved and that they don't become shared. That means that the following are not safe: - chattr +c (enable compression) - reflink - dedupe - snapshot - defrag Don't allow those to happen on an active swap file. Additionally, balance, resize, device remove, and device replace are also unsafe if they affect an active swapfile. Add a red-black tree of block groups and devices which contain an active swapfile. Relocation checks each block group against this tree and skips it or errors out for balance or resize, respectively. Device remove and device replace check the tree for the device they will operate on. Note that we don't have to worry about chattr -C (disable nocow), which we ignore for non-empty files, because an active swapfile must be non-empty and can't be truncated. We also don't have to worry about autodefrag because it's only done on COW files. Truncate and fallocate are already taken care of by the generic code. Device add doesn't do relocation so it's not an issue, either. Signed-off-by:Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com> Reviewed-by:
