Btrfs as default filesystem for Fedora 23?

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

 



Hey all,

Over the last few months (since Fedora 22 beta's release), I've been using Btrfs as my daily driver filesystem across a multitude of machines. After Fedora 22 released, I tried it with RAID 5 and RAID 6 enabled on a few machines with fantastic success (there aren't even any scary warnings about being experimental anymore!).

Admittedly, my tests have been specific to my needs (media center storage, workstations, laptops with SSDs, etc.), but it appears to work really well now.

Also, with kernel 4.1 imported into rawhide, we've now got performance improvements for large (>20TB) filesystems (though it's been plenty fast for my 48TB array).

As I recall, Josef Bacik mentioned that he'd be pushing for Btrfs becoming the default in Fedora 23. At this point, I'm personally convinced that it is certainly ready and doable for F23.

Perhaps other guys with more experience on this stuff could chime in with feedback/information/etc, but it feels like we should start the process to get everything ready for Btrfs being default in Fedora 23.

The question now is: as a distribution, where are we on this? The tools seem to work, the filesystem appears stable, and I've not been able to cause the filesystem to corrupt itself with any kind of user error or cause it to keel over. So, what's left?
