Now running 3.16-rc6 + current git + this patch.

It may take some time tough cause during compiling the kernel BTRFS hung 
again, which caused loss of KDE Baloo desktop search file index and parts of a 
mail I wrote in KMail.

Since the patch mentioned ENOSPC issues but the filesystem has enough free 
space according to df I shrunk the trees with

btrfs balance start -musage=50 /home
btrfs balance start -musage=50 /home


merkaba:~> btrfs fi sh /home                   
Label: 'home'  uuid: […]
        Total devices 2 FS bytes used 124.05GiB
        devid    1 size 160.00GiB used 150.00GiB path /dev/mapper/msata-home
        devid    2 size 160.00GiB used 150.00GiB path /dev/dm-3


As I bet that the error is more likely to happen when trees occupy all space, 
it may take some time till it happens again.

Well its growing slowly already:

merkaba:~> btrfs fi df /home
Data, RAID1: total=146.97GiB, used=121.84GiB
System, RAID1: total=32.00MiB, used=48.00KiB
Metadata, RAID1: total=4.00GiB, used=2.62GiB
unknown, single: total=512.00MiB, used=0.00
merkaba:~> btrfs fi sh /home
Label: 'home'  uuid: […]
        Total devices 2 FS bytes used 124.46GiB
        devid    1 size 160.00GiB used 151.00GiB path /dev/dm-0
        devid    2 size 160.00GiB used 151.00GiB path /dev/mapper/sata-home

Btrfs v3.14.1


I wonder why ENOSPC conditions happens with that much space inside trees free. 
Were they just too fragmented?

To me

merkaba:~> LANG=C df -hT /home
Filesystem     Type   Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/dm-0      btrfs  320G  249G   69G  79% /home

is a quite healthy free space margin.


Well, lets see how this goes.

I hope it can be fixed soon as it causes loss of recently saved data and 
generally locks up a machine running KDE desktop quite quickly on a BTRFS 
hang.
