Hi btrfs-ml, I have tried a ext4->btrfs conversation of a 1TB (90%full) and have seen that btrfs has no progressbar or something like that. Furthermore I have found [1] a project idea for this. I have tried a generic tasklet-based solution to print the status of the convert-process. Maybe it looks good to you than please add this to your repo. I have implemented this with the linux specific timerfd facility. To enable this you haver to use the '-p' option. I have noticed that a conversation doesn't show all inodes as converted at the end. How can I improve this? A complete convert-process is showd here: sfr@devhost ./btrfs-progs % ./btrfs-convert -p /dev/sde4 creating btrfs metadata. copy inodes [o] [ 96/ 106] creating ext2fs image file. cleaning up system chunk. conversion complete.
