Hi,
this series mainly improves error handling in mkfs and convert, plus the
collaterals. There were too many BUG_ONs, now there are 0 in mkfs.c. There's
still work to do, eg. in the generic functions.
The improvement idea is to be able to safely leave around an unfinished
filesystem image, so the error handling is just "report & return". The signature
is intentionally bogus until the entire filesystem is constructed.
This is now in devel.
David Sterba (13):
btrfs-progs: pass OPEN_CTREE flags as unsigned
btrfs-progs: make superblock reading/scanning api more generic
btrfs-progs: introduce signature for a partially set up filesystem
btrfs-progs: mkfs: do not scan partially initialized devices
btrfs-progs: two staged filesystem creation
btrfs-progs: mkfs: return errors from block group creation functions
btrfs-progs: mkfs: improve error handling in main()
btrfs-progs: mkfs: improve error handling in recow_roots
btrfs-progs: document all btrfs_open_ctree_flags
btrfs-progs: mkfs: switch BUG_ON to error handling in
traverse_directory
btrfs-progs: mkfs: handle and report transaction commit failures
btrfs-progs: mkfs: help and usage now to to stdout
btrfs-progs: mkfs: clean up make_image
