btrfs: limit async_work allocation and worker func duration
Problem statement: unprivileged user who has read-write access to more than one btrfs subvolume may easily consume all kernel memory (eventually triggering oom-killer). Reproducer (./mkrmdir below essentially loops over mkdir/rmdir): [root@kteam1 ~]# cat prep.sh DEV=/dev/sdb mkfs.btrfs -f $DEV mount $DEV /mnt for i in `seq 1 16` do mkdir /mnt/$i btrfs subvolume create /mnt/SV_$i ID=`btrfs subvolume list /mnt |grep "SV_$i$" |cut -d ' ' -f 2` mount -t btrfs -o subvolid=$ID $DEV /mnt/$i chmod a+rwx /mnt/$i done [root@kteam1 ~]# sh prep.sh [maxim@kteam1 ~]$ for i in `seq 1 16`; do ./mkrmdir /mnt/$i 2000 2000 & done [root@kteam1 ~]# for i in `seq 1 4`; do grep "kmalloc-128" /proc/slabinfo | grep -v dma; sleep 60; done kmalloc-128 10144 10144 128 32 1 : tunables 0 0 0 : slabdata 317 317 0 kmalloc-128 9992352 9992352 128 32 1 : tunables 0 0 0 : slabdata 312261 312261 0 kmalloc-12...
