similar to: [PATCH v2 0/3] btrfs-progs: prevent mkfs from aborting with small volume

In a multi device setup, the chunk allocator currently always allocates chunks on the devices in the same order. This leads to a very uneven distribution, especially with RAID1 or RAID10 and an uneven number of devices. This patch always sorts the devices before allocating, and allocates the stripes on the devices with the most available space, as long as there is enough space available. In a low

Hello, So there is an odd case where we can possibly return -ENOSPC when there is in fact space to be had. I think I finally have a hold on what the problem is, it only happens with Metadata writes, and happens _very_ infrequently. What has to happen is we have to allocate have allocated out of the first logical byte on the disk, which would set last_alloc to first_logical_byte(root, 0), so

Some programs like btrfsck should not be run on a mounted filesystem. This patch adds a check in btrfs_open_devices() for the mount status of every device belonging to the filesystem. The function check_mount() gets improved support for loopback devices. It now detects if the program is run on the file that is being used by the loopback device. Signed-off-by: Andi Drebes

The whole loop=0,1,2 thing was kind of odd and not very self explanatory. I''ve replaced it with a list_for_each_entry on space_info->block_groups. If we have a hint we just jump into the loop with the block group and start looking for space. If we don''t find anything we start at the beginning and start looking. We never come out of the loop with a ref on the block_group

Hi Seto, please could you update also the man page too ? Why it was not provided a way to clear a *single* flag ? To me it seems a bit too long to clear all the flag (btrfs mount-option clear) and then set the right one. As user interface I suggest something like chmod: btrfs mount-option set +ssd,skip_balance -nodatacow /dev/sdX or btrfs mount-option set =ssd,skip_balance,nodatacow

If stop_machine() invoked while one of onlined cpu is locked up by some reason, stop_machine cannot finish its work because the locked cpu cannot stop. This means all other healthy cpus will be blocked infinitely by one dead cpu. This patch allows stop_machine to return -EBUSY with some printk messages if any of stop_machine's threads cannot start running on its target cpu in time. You can

Thank you for useful feedbacks! Here is the updated version. Could you put this on top of your patches, Rusty?

Since the d_off in the first dirent for "." (that originates from the 4th argument "offset" of filldir() for the 2nd dirent for "..") is wrongly assigned in btrfs_real_readdir(), telldir returns same offset for different locations. | # mkfs.btrfs /dev/sdb1 | # mount /dev/sdb1 fs0 | # cd fs0 | # touch file0 file1 | # ../test | telldir: 0 | readdir: d_off = 2,

Yan Zheng hit a problem where we tried to remove some free space but failed because we couldn''t find the free space entry. This is because the free space was held within a bitmap that had a starting offset well before the actual offset of the free space, and there were free space extents that were in the same range as that offset, so tree_search_offset returned with NULL because we

An user reported that he has hit an annoying deadlock while playing with ceph based on btrfs. Current updating device tree requires space from METADATA chunk, so we -may- need to do a recursive chunk allocation when adding/updating dev extent, that is where the deadlock comes from. If we use SYSTEM metadata to update device tree, we can avoid the recursive stuff. Reported-by: Jim Schutt

Hi All, My name is Takanori Kasai. This is a first time to send mail. I found the key that was not able to be input to HVM Domain (VTx and VTi Domain) through VNC Server with Japanese keyboard. I think that it is a cause by lack of some keys in Japanese keymap and the key symbol table in qemu-dm. This patch is addition of the keys for Japanese keyboard. My best regards. - Takanori Kasai

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

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
