A subvolume with an active swapfile must not be deleted otherwise it would not be possible to deactivate it. After the subvolume is deleted, we cannot swapoff the swapfile in this deleted subvolume because the path is unreachable. The swapfile is still active and holding references, the filesystem cannot be unmounted. The test looks like this: mkfs.btrfs -f $dev > /dev/null mount $dev $mnt btrfs sub create $mnt/subvol touch $mnt/subvol/swapfile chmod 600 $mnt/subvol/swapfile chattr +C $mnt/subvol/swapfile dd if=/dev/zero of=$mnt/subvol/swapfile bs=1K count=4096 mkswap $mnt/subvol/swapfile swapon $mnt/subvol/swapfile btrfs sub delete $mnt/subvol swapoff $mnt/subvol/swapfile # failed: No such file or directory swapoff --all unmount $mnt # target is busy. To prevent above issue, we simply check that whether the subvolume contains any active swapfile, and stop the deleting process. This behavior is like snapshot ioctl dealing with a swapfile.
