As all the backref walking code, this differs between shared backrefs and indirect backrefs, too. In general, the criterion is: We've got a backref with a positive refcount, we've got a root id set for it, and we determined that this block has no parent block. See where find_parent_nodes adds to the "roots" ulist. >> let me continue digging in the code:) Please do so :-) -Jan -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
