Commit 2e6e518335 ("Btrfs: fix block group ->space_info null pointer
dereference") accidently marked a space info as full when initializing
it with a value of 0 total bytes. This introduces an ENOSPC problem when
writing file data if we mount a filesystem that has no data block groups
allocated, because the data space info is initialized with 0 total bytes,
marked as full, and it never gets its total bytes incremented by a
(positive) value to unmark it as full (because there are no data block
groups loaded when the fs is mounted).
For metadata and system spaces this issue can never happen since we always
have at least one metadata block group and one system block group (even
for an empty filesystem).
So fix this by just not initializing a space info as full, reverting the
offending part of the commit mentioned above.
The following test case for fstests reproduces the issue:
seq=`basename $0`
seqres=$RESULT_DIR/$seq
echo "QA output created by $seq"
tmp=/tmp/$$
status=1 # failure is the default!
trap "_cleanup; exit \$status" 0 1 2 3 15
_cleanup()
{
rm -f $tmp.*
}
# get standard environment, filters and checks
. ./common/rc
. ./common/filter

# write path from attempting to allocate a data block group and fail
