Commit 8be2fff (btrfs-progs: apply realpath for btrfs fi show when mount point is given) changed the behavior of btrfs fi show to return an error if the call to realpath() failed. This broke the ability to specify a filesystem by uuid or label.
So let's not consider a failed call to realpath() as an error. If the user really specified a bad device, just return nothing like we did before. --- cmds-filesystem.c | 9 ++------- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/cmds-filesystem.c b/cmds-filesystem.c index 8f037dd..a654e6f 100644 --- a/cmds-filesystem.c +++ b/cmds-filesystem.c @@ -901,13 +901,8 @@ static int cmd_show(int argc, char **argv) * realpath do /mnt/btrfs/ => /mnt/btrfs * which shall be recognized by btrfs_scan_kernel() */ - if (!realpath(search, path)) { - fprintf(stderr, "ERROR: Could not show %s: %s\n", - search, strerror(errno)); - return 1; - } - - search = path; + if (realpath(search, path)) + search = path; /* * Needs special handling if input arg is block dev And if -- 1.7.10.4 -- 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
