Hi,
just to chime in on this: This issue also affects me as a "downstream" user,
so it also breaks real-life usecases.
I use btrbk for backup, and when performing a regular incremental backup,
after switching to btrfs-progs 4.8.4, I get the same "short read from stream"
problem.
Internally, btrbk issues something along the lines of:
btrfs send -p /mnt/btrfs_pool/_btrbk_snap/home.20161127T020001+0100
/mnt/btrfs_pool/_btrbk_snap/home.20161127T030001+0100 | btrfs receive
/mnt/btrfs_backup/alien17/
which then exits with a non-zero return code due to the "short read from
stream" issue.
Needless to say, everything is fine again after downgrade to btrfs-progs 4.8.3.
Cheers,
Oliver
