Hi all,
I am trying to mount a btrfs filesystem, and I have been told on
freenode/#btrfs to try the mailing list for more precise advice.
My setup is as follow : one debian server (stretch, 4.2.0-1-amd64 #1 SMP
Debian 4.2.3-2 (2015-10-14) x86_64) with 5 disks running in a btrfs raid6
volume.
root@nas:~# btrfs --version
btrfs-progs v4.1.2
root@nas:~# btrfs fi show
Label: none uuid: 0d56cb74-65f9-4f4e-9c51-74ea286f3f79
Total devices 5 FS bytes used 2.66TiB
devid 3 size 931.51GiB used 320.29GiB path /dev/sda1

devid 6 size 2.73TiB used 1.76TiB path /dev/sde1
devid 7 size 2.73TiB used 1.76TiB path /dev/sdf1
devid 8 size 2.73TiB used 609.50GiB path /dev/sdd1
btrfs-progs v4.1.2
root@nas:~# btrfs fi df /raid
Data, RAID6: total=2.66TiB, used=2.66TiB
System, RAID6: total=64.00MiB, used=416.00KiB
Metadata, RAID6: total=10.00GiB, used=8.13GiB
GlobalReserve, single: total=512.00MiB, used=544.00KiB
As you can guess, device 8 is pretty new. Device 3 is to be removed. I already
issued a "btrfs dev del" on it (and the data was balanced to dev 8), but had to
interrupt it (I'm not proud of that, but the server had to be turned off).
I had few hitches with this volume recently : the btrfs dev del was
interrupted, and one of the SATA cable was defective (I saw that recently, it
is now replaced). I ran a scrub which had not had enough time to complete. I
can not say for sure that it is not waiting for resuming...
The volume has several snapshots (about 20 or 30, I activated snapper 1 month
ago), and I just enabled qgroups in order to monitor snapshot disk usage. I
know that the qgroups quotas are not updated yet : because of the bad cable,
the latest "btrfs dev del" started to have errors, and I could not do anything
but kill the server. If I remember correctly, the disk with the bad cable was
devid 5 (/dev/sdb1).
I enabled qgroups during the "btrfs dev del" process.
Now, I can mount the volume with no problem in read-only (so my backups are
up-to-date!)
If I try to mount it RW, I get the following errors in dmesg :
steps :
mount -o ro,recover,nospace_cache,clear_cache,skip_balance
(time is 28s in dmesg)
mount -o remount,rw,recover,nospace_cache,clear_cache,skip_balance
(time 83s)
dmesg :

As you can see, I get an error at boot+360s (6 minutes)
The error repeats every two minutes, and stopped at boot+28minutes.
However, the "mount" process was still active, and I stopped it (in order to
try something else) more than 3 hours later. No message appeared after this one
(t+28m).
I also tried to mount RO, umount, then mount RW (with the same option), but
with no success : I got the same message+backtrace at boot+4 minutes
Following an advice on #btrfs, I am currently running a btrfs check --readonly,
but it takes a pretty long time. However, may the check fix the problem or not,
the backtrace may be of interest for you...
I'll update the mailing-list after the btrfs-check result
