similar to: 'ioctl:: Inappropriate ioctl for device' when trying to shrink partition

Hi, I''m hitting this issue - sda5 is a normal device, nothing to do with loop, encryption etc. # mkfs.btrfs /dev/sda5 WARNING! - Btrfs v0.19-35-g1b444cd-dirty IS EXPERIMENTAL WARNING! - see http://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org before using error checking /dev/sda5 mount status Is there something I can do to resolve this? Thank you Lubos -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line

I have accidently damaged the first block(s) of a btrfs partition and can''t mount it anymore. I can see that my data is still intact by running a command like: cat /dev/sda5 | hexdump -C | more Do any (experimental) tools exist which would allow me to recover the files?

I''ve just finished installing onto an OCZ Agilent v2 SSD with btrfs as filesystem. However to my surprise I''ve hit an ENOSPC condition one one of the partitions within less than a day of uptime, while the filesystem on that partition only reported 50% to be in use, which is far from the 75% limit people mention on the ML. Note that this occurs using a vanilla 2.6.32-rc5 kernel

Hi, I''m starting to play with btrfs on my new computer. I''m running Gentoo and have compiled the 2.6.31 kernel, enabling btrfs. Now I have 2 partitions (on 2 different sata disks) that are free for me to play with, each about 375 gb in size. I wanted to create a "raid1" volume using these two partitions, so I did: # mkfs.btrfs -d raid1 /dev/sda5 /dev/sdb5 # mount

Good afternoon btrfs, I have been having issues with snapshots not reading the whole file tree below them. I have installed new btrfs-progs from git://git.darksatanic.net/repo/btrfs-progs-unstable.git made and installed them. My tree is: /Btrfs | |__ nfs1 | |__ data |

In snapshot destroy the dentry used for parent was the snapshot dentry itself. Remove d_invalidate since always return EBUSY, making possible to remove a snapshot using the btrfsctl -D option.

I found userspace tool, btrfsctl, uses BTRFS_VOL_NAME_MAX, and it also looks that this one is more proper. Kill BTRFS_PATH_NAME_MAX since no one will use it.

Hello everyone, Just before I head off to xmas vacation, I've pushed out my current queue of unstable things to the unstable tree. The big changes are the online resize, and a very very simple form of ENOSPC detection: btrfsctl -r new_size /mount_point new_size can be an absolute number: btrfsctl -r 8g /mount_point or it can be an relative number: # add 4GB btrfsctl -r +4g /mount_point

Hi, I have got big question: How to remove snapshot from Btrfs? I don't found option for this in btrfsctl. -- Best regards Steven Jurczyk

I''ve got a btrfs on an sd card, which I''m using as the root fs on a beagle. That''s not the problem :) The machine I generate my images on has an internal sd reader, and I also have a usb card reader. After creating the fs on the internal reader, I ended up plugging it in on the external reader. internal: sdd external: sdh mount /dev/sdh2 /mnt -t btrfs > mount:

Hi Chris and everyone else, First let me congratulate you for the nice job on btrfs. I've been stress testing it with parallel kernel compiles intermixed with snapshot taking, up to about ~100 load avg on a dual core box and it's doing quite well :-) I noticed that when creating snapshots it seems to always snapshot an entire subvolume, that is if one does: test1:/mnt# btrfsctl -s
