Hello, I've booted into the latest nightly build of Fedora and run btrfs rescue super-recover -v and also btrfs check.
Super-recover reports that "All supers are valid, no need to recover." Btrfs check displays the same errors as before: Parent trasid verified failed on xxxx wanted xxxx found xxxxx Ignoring transid failure Leaf parent key incorrect xxxxxxx Bad block xxxxxxxxxxx Errors found in extend allocation tree or chunk allocation. The check eventually fails with Segmentation fault (core dumped.) Attempting to mount with -o recovery results in the error "Can't read superblock." I am able to mount the filesystem read-only however attempting to copy all of the data off has been unsuccessful. It appears to hit a bad area and just hangs. Is there anything else I can try?

I like it! Anyway, you could try mounting with -o recovery and see if that works. That's about the only thing I'd trust with such an old kernel and btrfs-progs. I don't even think it's worth trying the btrfsck on v0.20 just to see what the problems might be, and certainly not for actually using the repair mode. Actually I'm not even sure progs that old even does repairs, it might be the era of notify only. If -o recovery doesn't work, you'll need to use something newer, you could use one of: Fedora Rawhide nightly with 4.8rc6 kernel and btrfs-progs 4.7.2. This is a small netinstall image. dd to a USB stick, choose Troubleshooting option, then the Rescue option, then after startup use the 3 option to get to a shell where you can try to mount normally, or use btrfs-check. Limited tty, no sshd. https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/compose/rawhide/Fedora-Rawhide-20160914.n.0/compose/Everything/x86_64/iso/Fedora-Everything-netinst-x86_64-Rawhide-20160914.n.0.iso.n.0.iso Or something more official with published hash's for the image and a GUI, Fedora 24 workstation has kernel 4.5.5 and btrfs-progs 4.5.2 https://getfedora.org/en/workstation/download/ -- Chris Murphy iCon 2017 Registration is Now Open!
