It''s safe and easy to do so, provided the ranges don''t overlap.

It''s been nearly a year since the patches needed to implement a reflinked copy between subvolumes have been posted (http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.btrfs/9865 ) and I still get "Invalid cross-device link" error with Linux 3.2.4 while I try to do a cp --reflink between subvolumes. This is a *very* useful feature to have (think offline file-level

Just a quick update, I''ve dropped the hashing stuff in favor of doing a memcmp in the kernel to make sure the data is still the same. The thing that takes a while is reading the data up from disk, so doing a memcmp of the entire buffer isn''t that big of a deal, not to mention there''s a possiblity for malicious users if there is a problem with the hashing algorithms we

Hello, This is the second attempt to bring in cross subvolume reflinks into btrfs. The first attempt was NAKed due to missing vfs mount checks and a clear description of what btrfs subvolumes are and probably also why cross subvolume reflinks are ok in the case of btrfs. This version of the patch comes from David and is in SUSE kernels since a long time, so it is tested and working. The patch

Hi all, Just a quick question but can''t find an obvious answer. Can I create/convert a existing (btrfs) directory into a subvolume? It would be very helpful when transferring ''partitions'' into btrfs. I found a similar question way back in google, but that site is down now generally. Thanks in advance. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line

Hi all - The following 9 patches add more error handling to the btrfs code: - Add btrfs_panic - Catch locking failures in {set,clear}_extent_bit - Push up set_extent_bit errors to callers - Push up lock_extent errors to callers - Push up clear_extent_bit errors to callers - Push up unlock_extent errors to callers - Make pin_down_extent return void - Push up btrfs_pin_extent errors to

Returns a file''s size on disk. Had been posted by Chris Ball over a year ago (http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.btrfs/2873). Chris Mason suggested a couple of improvements back then, which I have implemented in this version: - use u64 to return the result - replaced the loop while (1) { struct btrfs_ordered_extent *ordered;

Al, Could this be included in the vfs queue? This patch adds ioctls to vfs for compatibility with legacy XFS pre-allocation ioctls (XFS_IOC_*RESVP*). The implementation effectively invokes sys_fallocate for the new ioctls. Also handles the compat_ioctl case. Note: These legacy ioctls are also implemented by OCFS2.

Hi all - Here''s my current error handling patchset, against 3.1-rc8. Almost all of this patchset is preparing for actual error handling. Before we start in on that work, I''m trying to reduce the surface we need to worry about. It turns out that there is a ton of code that returns an error code but never actually reports an error. The patchset has grown to 65 patches. 46 of them

Here are patches to do offline deduplication for Btrfs. It works well for the cases it''s expected to, I''m looking for feedback on the ioctl interface and such, I''m well aware there are missing features for the userspace app (like being able to set a different blocksize). If this interface is acceptable I will flesh out the userspace app a little more, but I believe the

So both Liu and I made huge messes of find_lock_delalloc_range trying to fix stuff, me first by fixing extent size, then him by fixing something I broke and then me again telling him to fix it a different way. So this is obviously a candidate for some testing. This patch adds a pseudo fs so we can allocate fake inodes for tests that need an inode or pages. Then it addes a bunch of tests to make

Hi Jens, James and Martin, This series concludes the work I did for linux-5.5 on the compat_ioctl() cleanup, killing off fs/compat_ioctl.c and block/compat_ioctl.c by moving everything into drivers. Overall this would be a reduction both in complexity and line count, but as I'm also adding documentation the overall number of lines increases in the end. My plan was originally to keep the

Hi everyone, This patchset is the latest approach I''m using for the Ceph storage daemon to keep track of which data has safely committed to disk. The basic idea is to not use the (problematic) user transaction ioctls at all. Instead, the daemon quiesces its own write requests, initiates an async snapshot, and then continues. The snapshot approach is nice because it provides rollback.

V1->V2: Check to see if our current ppos is >= i_size after a short DIO read, just in case it was actually a short read and we need to just return. This is similar to what already happens in the write case. If we have a short read while doing O_DIRECT, instead of just returning, fallthrough and try to read the rest via buffered IO. BTRFS needs this because if we encounter a compressed or

Testing with a modified copy of the fsfuzz, the btrfs filesystem hanged with the following output in dmesg. The system still remain responsive, except for the terminal that was doing the testing. Any attempt to list files in the btrfs-mounted directory will block as well. I am not sure how to proceed from here. Possibly to reboot the system next. But anyone can shed some suggestion?

I'd like to rsync a series of files at arbitrary points in a tree in one connection and am struggling to figure out how to do this. rsync seems AFAICS to have a fundamental src_file dst_file model, optionally with recursion. The best I could come up with was recursing plus multiple --include with a final --exclude "*". The idea is to avoid multiple calls to rsync and thus

Hi I'm trying to create a volume in an existing storage pool using python by calling createXML() on the pool object. If the file that is the subject of the new volume exists you get and error, also if it doesn't exist I worked out that specifying <source> <path>path to copy of file</path> </source> works, seemingly by copying the 'source' file to
