On 3.14.18 with a BTRFS partition mounted noatime,autodefrag,compress=lzo, I see the second assertion in btrfs_set_item_key_safe() trip: void btrfs_set_item_key_safe(struct btrfs_root *root, struct btrfs_path *path, struct btrfs_key *new_key) { struct btrfs_disk_key disk_key; struct extent_buffer *eb; int slot; eb = path->nodes[0];

Hi, I''ve been running btrfs on one of my machines for a few months now but I keep hitting performance issues. My system quite frequently freezes due to IO starvation. Looking at iotop it tends to show the large majority of the disk I/O being taken up with various btrfs tasks peeking at 7-8M/s, namely: btrfs-endio-wri btrfs-delayed-m btrfs-transacti btrfs-cleaner

I am using NFS over brtfs (vanilla 3.8.5) for heavy CoW to clone virtual disks with sizes 20-50GB. It worked OK for a couple of days, but yesterday it crashed. Reboot fixed the problem and I do not see any data corruption. I have a couple of different kdumps, I will include one as text and attach the other ones. I am using Fedora 18 with vanilla 3.8.5. The filesystem is created over a SAN volume

I''m on Fedora''s 3.8.5-201.fc18.x86_64. I tried to do some not-very-heavy I/O on my system (i.e. save kernel/sys.c in emacs) and it took about a minute. Everything went downhill from there. My system was basically idle at the time. (I have very little in the way of diagnostics because I couldn''t do much but hit the reset button after a couple of minutes.) On

Hi all, Last week we had 2 times an "uncorrectable ecc memory error" crash on our server on the same memory module. After removing the faulty module and restarting the server, everything was working again. However, yesterday we had a soft lockup and had to restart the server again. No warning or ecc error this time. Everything is working now, but we want to avoid this in the future

I can get btrfs to throw a kernel bug easily by running btrfs fi defrag on some files in 3.9.0: May 7 01:57:33 caper kernel: [ 0.000000] Linux version 3.9.0-030900-generic (apw@gomeisa) (gcc version 4.6.3 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.3-1ubuntu5) ) #201304291257 SMP Mon Apr 29 16:58:15 UTC 2013 ...

While untar''ing an image to an sd card via a reader, I got the following bug. The system also has a btrfs root, and a whole swath of processes went into uninterruptable sleep. I was able to poke around via ssh and sysrq, and already had netconsole set up to capture the bug. Root fs is on /dev/sdi1, and /dev/sdj2 is the card reader which was the target of the untar.

Hello all. What we have: SL6 - kernel 2.6.32-131.2.1.el6.x86_64 btrfs on mdadm RAID5 with 8 HDD - 27T partition. I see this at top: 1182 root 20 0 0 0 0 R 100.0 0.0 16:39.73 [btrfs-delalloc-] And LA is grow. What is this and how can I fix it? -- Best regards, Proskurin Kirill -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of

As mentioned on Google+, I have a partition that I can no longer mount normally, containing a lot of my personal data and all backups from my laptop. I found now that I am still able to mount it using the ''nospace_cache'' option, but it takes a couple of minutes and I get "INFO: task btrfs-transacti:1698 blocked for more than 120 seconds." messages reporting the thread

I''ve upgraded to linux 3.10 and enabled extended inode refs and skinny metadata extent refs with these commands: btrfstune -r /dev/sdc1 btrfstune -x /dev/sdc1 Since then, I have "WARNING: at fs/btrfs/backref.c:903 find_parent_nodes+0x616/0x815 [btrfs]()" showing up like crazy: # grep -c "WARNING: at fs/btrfs/backref.c:903" syslog 181819 That''s after just

Miao, I was trying out your patch on scalability testing for BTRFS on v3.3 kernel. http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-btrfs@vger.kernel.org/msg14930.html However, I ran into a lot of warnings (see the dmesg below). Wonder if you have a more up to date version of this patch? In addition, I have to do this modification to fix a warning in your original patch. diff --git a/fs/btrfs/inode.c

I''ve just started playing with Btrfs, and I''m getting a log full of kernel warnings that look something like this: Feb 16 09:02:17 vlad kernel: ------------[ cut here ]------------ Feb 16 09:02:17 vlad kernel: WARNING: at fs/btrfs/disk-io.c:815 clean_tree_block+0x9d/0xbb [btrfs]() Feb 16 09:02:17 vlad kernel: Hardware name: System Product Name Feb 16 09:02:17 vlad kernel:

Hi, I have added 2x2Tb to my existing 2x2Tb raid 1 btrfs filesystem and then ran a balance: # btrfs filesystem show Total devices 4 FS bytes used 1.74TB devid 3 size 1.82TB used 0.00 path /dev/sdd devid 4 size 1.82TB used 0.00 path /dev/sde devid 2 size 1.82TB used 1.75TB path /dev/sdc devid 1 size 1.82TB used 1.75TB path /dev/sdb # btrfs

We''re going to use this flag EXTENT_DEFRAG to indicate which range belongs to defragment so that we can implement snapshow-aware defrag: We set the EXTENT_DEFRAG flag when dirtying the extents that need defragmented, so later on writeback thread can differentiate between normal writeback and writeback started by defragmentation. This patch is used for the latter one. Originally patch

Hi all. I was doing some testing with writing out data to a BTFS filesystem with the compress-force option. With 1 program running, I saw btfs-delalloc taking about 1 CPU worth of time, much as could be expected. I then started up 2 programs at the same time, writing data to the BTRFS volume. btrfs-delalloc still only used 1 CPU worth of time. Is btrfs-delalloc threaded, to where it can use

Hi! Today I converted my /home from Ext4 to BTRFS by reformatting and copying all over again. I created the filesystem with -l 16384 -n 16384 -d single -m single on an logical volume Intel SSD 320 and mount with compress=lzo,spacecache.
