I''ve just started playing with Btrfs, and I''m getting a log
full of
kernel warnings that look something like this:

They''re not all identical -- there are bits in the middle of the
trace that change. They tend to arrive in groups of 4-8 warnings very
close together, separated by 15-20 seconds without a warning. The
workload was encoding a video from another filesystem, onto the Btrfs
filesystem. It''s quiet when there''s nothing accessing the
filesystem.
The filesystem is 19GiB in size, residing on LVM-on-RAID-1 on a
2.6.29-rc4 kernel. It was created on 2.6.29-rc3, 20GiB in size using
btrfs tools 0.18-ge3b0f66, and shrunk online to its current size.
I haven''t found any similar reports on the mailing list, which
means either I''ve got something unusual, or something so blindingly
expected that nobody''s bothered to mention it. I suspect the latter,
but I''m reporting it in case it''s the former.
