For no apparent reason I cannot longer mount my RAID1-pair of 500GB-disks read/write. If I do this, the kernel crashes invariably a few seconds after the first read attempt. The syslog contains always: kernel: BTRFS critical (device sdc): unable to update root key 5 132 0 kernel: ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel: kernel BUG at fs/btrfs/root-tree.c:160! kernel: invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP Fortunately I can mount the disks read-only without problems. (So I will not try "btrfs check" before I have copied the disks.) "btrfs scrub" works and found no errors "btrfs rescue super-recover" works but does not help. "mount -o recovery" does not help This happens with all kernels I tried: 3.16, 3.16.7-ctk7, 3.18.9, 3.19.1, 4.0-rc2 Regards, Martin PS: I attach the relevant part of syslog.
