From a03f536f0dae3ca20e11b7c2ba41e4a7eb1f28c9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Richard W.M. Jones" Date: Wed, 10 Oct 2012 11:15:39 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: Add an extended workaround for btrfs failures seen with kernel 3.7.0. See: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=863978 and: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.btrfs/20257 This extends the fix in commit d9e5b514aa4ef6d659b267e8caef4ebec8a221b1 because I missed the case where mkfs.btrfs is called directly. --- daemon/btrfs.c | 5 +++++ 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+) diff --git a/daemon/btrfs.c b/daemon/btrfs.c index 8ecde01..8b80475 100644 --- a/daemon/btrfs.c +++ b/daemon/btrfs.c @@ -204,6 +204,11 @@ do_mkfs_btrfs (char *const *devices, return -1; } + /* Workaround for RHBZ#863978, possibly in kernel 3.7.0.
