Exactly, yes. Sorry for not being more clear. FWIW I've been balancing a lot recently (both for stress testing and cleaning up a few filesystems) and have never run into this particular stall, but only ever do filtered balances. Also I wouldn't be surprised at all if this is yet another problem where md does something in a way that btrfs doesn' expect, and things go wrong. -h -- 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
