In btrfs_clone_files(), we must check the NODATASUM flag while the inodes are locked. Otherwise, it's possible that btrfs_ioctl_setflags() will change the flags after we check and we can end up with a party checksummed file.
The race window is only a few instructions in size, between the if and the locks which is:
3834 if (S_ISDIR(src->i_mode) || S_ISDIR(inode->i_mode)) 3835 return -EISDIR;
where the setflags must be run and toggle the NODATASUM flag (provided the file size is 0). The clone will block on the inode lock, segflags takes the inode lock, changes flags, releases log and clone continues.
Not impossible but still needs a lot of bad luck to hit unintentionally.
