Hi everybody, and thanks a lot for your work. I'm using BTRFS over LVM over cryptsetup, over Samsung SSD 860 EVO (latest git of btrfs-progs). Usually I run kernel in development, because I know BTRFS is young and there are still lots of bugs and corner case to fix. Anyway, I just want to submit to you a - maybe - useful info. Yesterday I compiled and booted latest linux-next,¹ and I've got this: ----------- nov 26 01:18:22 glet kernel: Btrfs loaded, crc32c=crc32c-intel nov 26 01:18:22 glet kernel: BTRFS: device label home devid 1 transid 32759 /dev/mapper/cry-home nov 26 01:18:23 glet kernel: BTRFS info (device dm-3): force lzo compression, level 0 nov 26 01:18:23 glet kernel: BTRFS info (device dm-3): disk space caching is enabled nov 26 01:18:23 glet kernel: BTRFS info (device dm-3): has skinny extents nov 26 01:18:23 glet kernel: BTRFS error (device dm-3): bad tree block start, want 2152002191360 have 8829432654847901262 nov 26 01:18:23 glet kernel: BTRFS error (device dm-3): failed to read block groups: -5 nov 26 01:18:23 glet kernel: BTRFS error (device dm-3): open_ctree failed ----------- Now, rebooting with 4.19.0-041900 (downloaded from here)², or 4.20-rc4 (compiled on this machine), the problem disappears. Now, running scrub a few times, and copying data (all files of the logical volume) to external device, gives no complain. Here I stop. This is my primary dev laptop, and at the moment I can't spend time switching/rebooting/testing. I'm comparing the data with last backup (I rsync each hour), but it takes time (it's more then 3TB). So, that was about to let you know. Well, it's Ubuntu 18.10, and between reboots no dist-upgrade or changes in booting related packages or systemd. One question: I can completely trust the ok return status of scrub? I know is made for this, but shit happens...
