Maybe - I don't know the code. But in my case "ENOSPACE" is returned too early. "btrfs-show" tells 2*1.35 TiByte used, but "no space left" is told when 2.4 TiByte are used (2.38 TiByte is ok). That's 300 GiByte too early (or about 10% too early). Or am I wrong in interpreting the messages? Viele Gruesse!
