I've run across two issues with the delayed cleaner process running a kernel based on the 3.6.0 btrfs-next branch in Josef's git repository.
(1) I'm getting an error when trying to list my subvolumes whenever the cleaner thread is running: # btrfs su li /mnt/benchmark/ ERROR: Failed to lookup path for root 0 - No such file or directory As long as the cleaner thread is idle, I can run this command without error. (2) I ran into an issue on a slower x86 machine (AMD Athlon XP 2600+) where the cleaner thread literally required an hour to finish deleting a subvolume that contained the sources for a kernel I had previously built. The machine was responsive the whole time, and the cleaner thread never required much more than 5-10% of the CPU, leaving ample idle time. Interestingly, every attempt to replicate this behaviour resulted in the cleaner thread finishing in a few seconds. My first issue replicates every time the cleaner thread is running. I'll need to work on the second issue for a while to see if I can get it to replicate. -- 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
