When a block group becomes unused and the cleaner kthread is currently running, we can end up getting the current transaction aborted with error -ENOENT when we try to commit the transaction, leading to the following trace: [59779.258768] WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 5990 at fs/btrfs/extent-tree.c:3740 btrfs_write_dirty_block_groups+0x17c/0x214 [btrfs]() [59779.272594] BTRFS: Transaction aborted (error -2) (...)

[59779.318186] ---[ end trace 577e2daff90da33a ]--- The following diagram illustrates a sequence of steps leading to this problem: CPU 1 CPU 2 <at transaction N> adds bg A to list fs_info->unused_bgs adds bg B to list fs_info->unused_bgs <transaction kthread commits transaction N and wakes up the cleaner kthread> cleaner kthread delete_unused_bgs() sees bg A in list fs_info->unused_bgs btrfs_start_transaction() <transaction N + 1 starts> deletes bg A update_block_group(bg C) --> adds bg C to list fs_info->unused_bgs deletes bg B sees bg C in the list fs_info->unused_bgs btrfs_remove_chunk(bg C) btrfs_remove_block_group(bg C) --> checks if the block group is in a dirty list, and because it isn't now, it does nothing --> the block group item is deleted from the extent tree --> adds bg C to list transaction->dirty_bgs some task calls btrfs_commit_transaction(t N + 1) commit_cowonly_roots() btrfs_write_dirty_block_groups() --> sees bg C in cur_trans->dirty_bgs --> calls write_one_cache_group() which returns -ENOENT because it did not find the block group item in the extent tree --> transaction aborte with -ENOENT because write_one_cache_group() returned that error So fix this by adding a block group to the list of dirty block groups before adding it to the list of unused block groups. This happened on a stress test using fsstress plus concurrent calls to fallocate 20G and truncate (releasing part of the space allocated with fallocate).
