[PATCH v2] btrfs: fix a bogus warning when converting only data or metadata

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

 



If your filesystem has, eg, data:raid0 metadata:raid1, and you run "btrfs
balance -dconvert=raid1", the meta.target field will be uninitialized.
That's otherwise ok, as it's unused except for this warning.

Thus, let's use the existing set of raid levels for the comparison.

As a side effect, non-convert balances will now nag about data>metadata.

To reproduce:
dd if=/dev/zero bs=1048576 count=1 seek=4095 of=ra
dd if=/dev/zero bs=1048576 count=1 seek=4095 of=rb
mkfs.btrfs ra rb     # defaults to -draid0 -mraid1
losetup -f ra
losetup -f rb
mount /dev/loop0 /mnt/vol1
btrfs balance start -dconvert=raid1 /mnt/vol1

Okay.

I'm not sure why storing a bogus value that came from userspace and was
uninitialized there (0 in normal use) would be better, but here we go:
v2 doesn't overwrite what we got anymore.

Unrelated: I wonder if the profiles in the warning message shouldn't be
printk'ed as words (akin to ebce0e01), but we don't have a function to do
that, have we?


Meow!
