Hi,
I have a corrupted file on BTRFS which has CoW disabled thus no
checksum. Trying to read this file causes the process to get stuck
forever. It doesn't return EIO.
How can I find out why it gets stuck?
$ ddrescue -b 1 currupted_file /tmp/temp
GNU ddrescue 1.26
Press Ctrl-C to interrupt

pct rescued: 0.00%, read errors: 0, remaining time: n/a

but in dmesg only thing that shows up is a lot of

If I try to do btrfs send, it gets stuck same way
$ btrfs send -v /mnt/fs > /dev/null

I'm now using 5.17.0-rc2 but it's exactly same with 5.16.5
Thanks!
