Btrfs: check reserved when deciding to background flush
We will sometimes start background flushing the various enospc related things
(delayed nodes, delalloc, etc) if we are getting close to reserving all of our
available space. We don't want to do this however when we are actually using
this space as it causes unneeded thrashing. We currently try to do this by
checking bytes_used >= thresh, but bytes_used is only part of the equation, we
need to use bytes_reserved as well as this represents space that is very likely
to become bytes_used in the future.
My tracing tool will keep count of the number of times we kick off the async
flusher, the following are counts for the entire run of generic/027
No Patch Patch
avg: 5385 5009
median: 5500 4916
We skewed lower than the average with my patch and higher than the average with
the patch, overall it cuts the flushing from anywhere from 5-10%, which in the
case of actual ENOSPC is quite helpful. Thanks,
