As btrfs(5) specified: Note If nodatacow or nodatasum are enabled, compression is disabled. If NODATASUM or NODATACOW set, we should not compress the extent. Normally NODATACOW is detected properly in run_delalloc_range() so compression won't happen for NODATACOW. However for NODATASUM we don't have any check, and it can cause compressed extent without csum pretty easily, just by: ------ mkfs.btrfs -f $dev mount $dev $mnt -o nodatasum touch $mnt/foobar mount -o remount,datasum,compress $mnt xfs_io -f -c "pwrite 0 128K" $mnt/foobar ------ And in fact, we have bug report about corrupted compressed extent without proper data checksum so even RAID1 can't recover the corruption. (https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=199707) Running compression without proper checksum could cause more damage when corruption happens, so there is no need to allow compression for NODATACSUM.
