[CORRUPTION]
There is a bug report that btrfs flips RO due to a corruption in the
extent tree, the involved dumps looks like this:
item 188 key (402811572224 168 4096) itemoff 14598 itemsize 79
extent refs 3 gen 3678544 flags 1
ref#0: extent data backref root 13835058055282163977 objectid 281473384125923 offset 81432576 count 1
ref#1: shared data backref parent 1947073626112 count 1
ref#2: shared data backref parent 1156030103552 count 1
BTRFS critical (device vdc1: state EA): unable to find ref byte nr 402811572224 parent 0 root 265 owner 28703026 offset 81432576 slot 189
BTRFS error (device vdc1: state EA): failed to run delayed ref for logical 402811572224 num_bytes 4096 type 178 action 2 ref_mod 1: -2
[CAUSE]
The corrupted entry is ref#0 of item 188.
The root number 13835058055282163977 is beyond the upper limit for root
items (the current limit is 1 << 48), and the objectid also looks
suspicious.
Only the offset and count is correct.
[ENHANCEMENT]
Although it's still unknown why we have such many bytes corrupted
randomly, we can still enhance the tree-checker for data backrefs by:
- Validate the root value
For now there should only be 3 types of roots can have data backref:
* subvolume trees
* data reloc trees
* root tree
Only for v1 space cache
- validate the objectid value
The objectid should be a valid inode number.
Hopefully we can catch such problem in the future with the new checkers.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
