It looks like it was indeed a bug in mkfs from 4.2.0, I upgraded to the development branch and everything seems to be working correctly now.

This is more of an inconvenience than anything else (while I don't have backups of it, all the data is trivial to recreate (in fact, so trivial that doing backups would be more effort than just recreating the data by hand)), but it's still something that I would like to try and fix. First off, general info: Kernel version: 4.2.1-local+ (4.2.1 with minor modifications, sources can be found here: https://github.com/ferroin/linux) Btrfs-progs version: 4.2 I would post output from btrfs fi show, but that's spouting obviously wrong data (it's saying I'm using only 127MB with 2GB of allocations on each 'disk', I had been storing approximately 4-6GB of actual data on the filesystem). This particular filesystem is composed of BTRFS raid1 across two LVM managed DM/MD RAID0 devices, each of which spans 2 physical hard drives. I have a couple of other filesystems with the exact same configuration that have not ever displayed this issue. When I run 'btrfs check' on the filesystem when it refuses to mount, I get a number of lines like the following: bad metadata [<bytenr>, <bytenr>) crossing stripe boundary followed eventually by: Errors found in extent allocation tree or chunk allocationI _think_ this is a bug in mkfs from 4.2.0, fixed in later releases of the btrfs-progs.If so, that's good news (that is, that it's just a mkfs bug). I guess it's time for me to quit waiting around for Gentoo to package the newest version and build it myself.
