However, new_delalloc_bytes lives in a union with last_dir_index_offset: union { u64 new_delalloc_bytes; /* files only */ u64 last_dir_index_offset; /* directories only */ }; For a directory inode this memory holds last_dir_index_offset, which is set during directory logging (e.g. flush_dir_items_batch()) to the offset of the last logged BTRFS_DIR_INDEX_KEY. That offset grows with the number of entries ever created in the directory (dir indexes are monotonic and never reused), so it can be arbitrarily large. As a result, after a directory has been logged (e.g. via an fsync that triggers directory logging), btrfs_getattr() reports inflated st_blocks for that directory. The inflation is purely in-core and disappears after the inode is evicted and reloaded (btrfs_alloc_inode() zeroes the union), e.g. after a remount. Reproducer (on a btrfs filesystem): D=/mnt/btrfs/d mkdir -p $D for i in $(seq 1 20000); do touch $D/f$i; done sync # commit, push dir index high touch $D/trigger # dirty the dir in a new transaction xfs_io -c fsync $D # log the directory -> sets last_dir_index_offset stat -c '%b' $D # st_blocks is now inflated (e.g. 40) # umount + mount -> st_blocks drops back to the correct value The evict path already knows this union is type-dependent and guards the corresponding WARN_ON with !S_ISDIR() in btrfs_destroy_inode(); only btrfs_getattr() was missing the equivalent check. Only read new_delalloc_bytes for regular files, which are the only inodes that ever set it.
