[PATCH V2 2/9] btrfs: check generation as replace duplicates devid+uuid

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Anand Jain <anand.jain@xxxxxxxxxx>

When FS in unmounted we need to check generation number as well
since devid+uuid combination could match with the missing replaced
disk when it reappears, and without this patch it might pair with
the replaced disk again.

 device_list_add() function is called in the following threads,
	mount device option
	mount argument
	ioctl BTRFS_IOC_SCAN_DEV (btrfs dev scan)
	ioctl BTRFS_IOC_DEVICES_READY (btrfs dev ready <dev>)
 they have been unit tested to work fine with this patch.

 If the user knows what he is doing and really want to pair with
 replaced disk (which is not a standard operation), then he should
 first clear the kernel btrfs device list in the memory by doing
 the module unload/load and followed with the mount -o device option.
