2012-05-17 Thread Miao Xie
the balance function should count the chunks which will be relocated at first,
and then relocate those chunks one by one.

__btrfs_balance() already calculates the approximate number of chunks
that will be relocated and stores that value in bctl-stat.expected.
The stat.considered counter OTOH is supposed to reflect the number of
chunks processed through balance filters and it is meant to be updated
at relocation pass, so AFAICS if (!counting) is the right test.

What exactly are you trying to fix here ?

Thanks,

Ilya

In fact this number reflect the number of all the chunks that may be relocated.
So since we can know the approximate number of chunks that will be relocated
before the relocation start, why can not we know it at the beginning?

And beside that, as a user, I am very strange that this counter is changed
every time I get the status of the balance, it should be the fixed number
since it reflect the number of all the chunks that may be relocated.

Thanks
