Well actually it's the (d) option ;)
I activate the quota feature for only one reason : being able to track
down how much space my snapshots are taking.

Yeah, that's completely one of the ideal use case of btrfs qgroup.

But I'm quite curious about the btrfsck error report on qgroup.

If btrfsck report such error, it means either I'm too confident about the recent qgroup accounting rework, or btrfsck has some bug which I
didn't take much consideration during the kernel rework.

Would you please provide the full result of previous btrfsck with
qgroup error?

Sure, I've saved the log somewhere just in case, here your are :

[...]
Thanks for your log, pretty interesting result.

BTW, did you enabled qgroup from old kernel earlier than 4.2-rc1?
If so, I would be much relaxed as they can be the problem of old kernels.

The mkfs.btrfs was done under 3.19, but I'm almost sure I enabled quota
under 4.2.0 precisely. My kern.log tends to confirm that (looking for
'qgroup scan completed').

Emmm, seems I need to pay more attention on this case now.
Any info about the workload for this btrfs fs?


If it's OK for you, would you please enable quota after reproducing
the bug and use for sometime and recheck it?

Sure, I've just reproduced the bug twice as I wanted, and posted the
info, so now I've cancelled the balance and I can reenable quota. Will
do it under 4.3.0-rc1. I'll keep you posted if btrfsck complains about
it in the following days.

Regards,

Thanks for your patience and detailed report.

You're very welcome.

But I still have another question, did you do any snapshot deletion
after quota enabled?
(I'll assume you did it, as there are a lot of backup snapshot, old
ones should be already deleted)

Actually no : this btrfs system is quite new (less than a week old) as I'm migrating from mdadm(raid1)+ext4 to btrfs. So those snapshots were actually rsynced one by one from my hardlinks-based "snapshots" under ext4 (those pseudo-snapshots are created using a program named "rsnapshot", if you know it. This is basically a wrapper to cp -la). I didn't activate yet an automatic snapshot/delete on my btrfs system, due to the bugs I'm tripping on. So no snapshot was deleted.

That's one of the known bug and Mark is working on it actively.
If you delete non-empty snapshot a lot, then I'd better add a hot fix
to mark qgroup inconsistent after snapshot delete, and trigger a
rescan if possible.

I've made a btrfs-image of the filesystem just before disabling quotas (which I did to get a clean btrfsck and eliminate quotas from the equation trying to reproduce the bug I have). Would it be of any use if I drop it somewhere for you to pick it up ? (2.9G in size).

In the meantime, I've reactivated quotas, umounted the filesystem and ran a btrfsck on it : as you would expect, there's no qgroup problem reported so far. I'll clear all my snapshots, run an quota rescan, then re-create them one by one by rsyncing from my ext4 system I still have. Maybe I'll run into the issue again.
