Btrfs devel - Apr 2013 - [bug] btrfs fi df doesn't show raid type after balance

Did something break.. ? we are not reporting raid type after balance.

-----------
# btrfs fi df /btrfs
Data, RAID0: total=2.00GB, used=2.03MB
Data: total=8.00MB, used=0.00
System, RAID0: total=16.00MB, used=4.00KB
System: total=4.00MB, used=0.00
Metadata, RAID0: total=2.00GB, used=216.00KB
Metadata: total=8.00MB, used=4.00KB

# btrfs bal /btrfs
Done, had to relocate 5 out of 5 chunks

# btrfs fi df /btrfs
Data: total=1.00GB, used=2.78MB
System: total=4.00MB, used=4.00KB
Metadata: total=1.00GB, used=276.00KB

btrfs-progs is at integration-20130321 and 3.8.0+

I already saw this. When the filesystem is empty a balance revert the
RAID mode to the single one. If the filesystem is not empty I was not
able to reproduce this.

fi df reports exactly what is on the filesystem.

Any unused raid profile is thrown away after full balance (except
system/single if it is there), because balance is currently implemented
that way. It does not check if there is a preferred allocation profile
to keep even if it is empty. The single profile is default and is
automatically picked after new data are being written.

I''ve seen this after creating a multi-device fs with raid0/1/10
profiles, filled with data, removed everyting, ran balance to unallocate
the blockgroups and found data group missing. I don''t have an
explanation why the raid0 profiles got merged into the single profiles
in Anand''s example.
