The reproduce steps is following: # mkfs.btrfs -s 8192 -l 8192 -n 8192 /dev/sda1 # mount /dev/sda1 /mnt # echo 1234567 > /mnt/aaa # sync (btrfs hangs up) It seems that the btrfs doesn't support the sectorsize which is greater than the page size just like ext2/3/4, though we can use mkfs.btrfs to make a filesystem with a big sectorsize. Am I right? If yes, we must do more check in the mkfs.btrfs. Thanks Miao Xie
