[PATCH 5.19 096/158] btrfs: add info when mount fails due to stale replace target

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

 



From: Anand Jain <anand.jain@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit f2c3bec215694fb8bc0ef5010f2a758d1906fc2d upstream.

If the replace target device reappears after the suspended replace is
cancelled, it blocks the mount operation as it can't find the matching
replace-item in the metadata. As shown below,

   BTRFS error (device sda5): replace devid present without an active replace item

To overcome this situation, the user can run the command

   btrfs device scan --forget <replace target device>

and try the mount command again. And also, to avoid repeating the issue,
superblock on the devid=0 must be wiped.

   wipefs -a device-path-to-devid=0.

This patch adds some info when this situation occurs.
