Good morning btrfs list,
I am trying to upgrade a remote server from kernel 3.1.0.rc4 to
3.2.0-rc4. I am not using make oldconfig. I use make menuconfig to do
a new configuration. After doing the dance of selecting (deselecting
actually) all includes and modules, I make sure I select btrfs to be
built in the kernel. The only place errors show up is in make install
where there are module not found errors. The most troubling is:
ERROR: modinfo: could not find module btrfs
Why is it even looking for this module when I specified to build btrfs
in the kernel. I would appreciate any thoughts, since this is a remote
server and any reboot issues involve much hassle with the colo service
team. The hardware this is being built on is dual quad-core xeons, 48Gb
memory 1ea 1Tb system disk and 12ea 1Tb disks on adaptec card to become
btrfs system. BTW, I am upgrading to pick up the latest patches as I
did have some exceptional latency when doing simple ls on the system. I
was testing with about 5.5Gb data on the btrfs system, in a file setup
involving thousands of subvolumes (replaced dirs with subvols for
snapshots).
Thanks
Jim Maloney
