This series adds an initial implementation for scrub. It works quite straightforward. The usermode issues an ioctl for each device in the fs. For each device, it enumerates the allocated device chunks. For each chunk, the contained extents are enumerated and the data checksums fetched. The extents are read sequentially and the checksums verified. If an error occurs (checksum or EIO), a good copy

While testing raid-auto-repair patches I''m going to send out later, I just found the very last bug in my current scrub patch series: Changelog v4->v5: - fixed a deadlock when fixup is taking longer while scrub is about to end Original message follows: ------------------------ This patch set introduces two new features for scrub. They share the backref iteration code which is the

Fix that when scrub tries to repair an I/O or checksum error and one of the devices containing the mirror is missing, it crashes in bio_add_page because the bdev is a NULL pointer for missing devices.

The goal is to detect when drives start to get an increased error rate, when drives should be replaced soon. Therefore statistic counters are added that count IO errors (read, write and flush). Additionally, the software detected errors like checksum errors and corrupted blocks are counted. An ioctl interface is added to get the device statistic counters. A second ioctl is added to atomically get

Changes v1-v2: - Remove restriction that BTRFS_IOC_GET_DEVICE_STATS is a privileged operation - Cast u64 to unsigned long long for printf() Changes v2-v3: - Rebased on Chris'' current master Changes v3-v4: - Add padding at end of ioctl structure Changes v4-v5: - The statistic members in the ioctl are now organized as an array of 64 bit values. Symbolic names for the array indexes

This series introduces a generic readahead interface for btrfs trees. The intention is to use it to speed up scrub in a first run, but balance is another hot candidate. In general, every tree walk could be accompanied by a readahead. Deletion of large files comes to mind, where the fetching of the csums takes most of the time. Also the initial build-ups of free-space-caches and
