Subject: btrfs: print checksum type and implementation at mount time
From: David Sterba <dsterba@xxxxxxxx>
commit c8a5f8ca9a9c7d5c5bc31d54f47ea9d86f93ed69 upstream.
Per user request, print the checksum type and implementation at mount
time among the messages. The checksum is user configurable and the
actual crypto implementation is useful to see for performance reasons.
The same information is also available after mount in
/sys/fs/FSID/checksum file.
Example:
[25.323662] BTRFS info (device vdb): using sha256 (sha256-generic) checksum algorithm
