Here are 3 patches to avoid undesired aborts of mkfs.btrfs. These are based on top of Chris''s btrfs-progs.git: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mason/btrfs-progs.git Thanks, H.Seto Hidetoshi Seto (3): btrfs-progs: error if device for mkfs is too small btrfs-progs: error if device have no space to make primary chunks btrfs-progs: calculate available
