[PATCH v2] btrfs: log message when rw remount is attempted with unclean tree-log

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

 



A remount to a read-write filesystem is not safe when there's tree-log
to be replayed. Files that could be opened until now might be affected
by the changes in the tree-log.

A regular mount is needed to replay the log so the filesystem presents
the consistent view with the pending changes included.
