Hi Qu,
Thanks for the comments on patch [1].
For example, if one use single metadata for 2 disks,

how that can be achieved ?
By this, I mean, the metadata profile is SINGLE,
and there is 2 metadata chunks.
One on disk1 and one on disk2.
As btrfs chunk allocate will always use device by avaiable space order,
it should be quite easy to archieve that situation.
In that case, any missing device will be a disaster,
in this case the read chunk would anyway fail, right ?
and that will lead to mount fail.
Thanks, Anand
and it's better not
to allow RW mount.
Thanks,
Qu
One device got missing later.
it would surely depend on which one of the device ? (initial only
devid 1 mountable, with other missing)
Thanks, Anand
Then your patch will allow the fs to be mounted as rw, even some tree
block can be in the missing device.
For RO case, it won't be too dangerous, but if we mounted it as RW, who
knows what will happen.
(Normal tree COW thing should fail before real write, but I'm not sure
about other RW operation like scrub/replace/balance and others)
And I think that's the original design concept behind the old missing
device number check, and it's not a bad idea to follow it anyway.
For the patch size, I find a good idea to handle it, and should make the
patch(set) size below 200 lines.
Further more, it's even possible to make btrfs change mount option to
degraded for runtime device missing.
Thanks,
Qu
I tried to break both the approaches (this patch set and [1]) but I
wasn't successful. sorry if I am missing something.
Thanks, Anand
