Message-ID: <20260213185647.21966-1-dsterba@suse.com> (raw)
Hi,
btrfs-progs version 6.19 have been released (ther version 6.18 has been skipped).
There's change in mkfs.btrfs defaults, the block group tree is now enabled. A
note is printed (which was a last minute change and the release was redone, the
top commit is 9ac9a97ee3ebcc71).
Changelog:
* mkfs:
* make block-group-tree default (support since linux 6.1), use -O ^bgt to
unset it for backward compatibility
* speed up initial device discard by procesing the ranges in order
* disable block-grooup-tree feature if a dependent feature is explicitly
unselected (like disabling no-holes), instead of erroring out
* check:
* add ability to detect and fix missing orphan items in deleted subvolumes
* add ability to fix inode refs from directory items
* enhance detection on unknown inode keys
* libbtrfsutil:
* minor version update to 1.4.0
* add missing aliases for API updates done in 0.1.3, C and python
* libbtrfs:
* patchlevel version update 0.1.5
* error handling updates
* fixes:
* with DUP profile and mixed sequential and conventional zoned make sure
to track the right write pointers
* scrub: fix ETA wraparound calculations, when many files get deleted
during the operation bytes_scrubbed and bytes_total get too much out of
sync, the ETA will be 0
* corrupt-block: add ability to specify key value when corrupting item keys
* experimental features:
* initial remap tree support (new logical-to-logical mapping layer),
coming in linux 7.0
* other:
* documentation updates
* CI updates, new and updated tests
* code cleanups and refactoring
