Hi there,
I am attempting to build a rootfs image from an existing rootfs
directory tree. I am using the 0.20 @ 194aa4a of Chris's git repo.
The couple problem I saw was that the target image file needed to exist,
although I think I can patch that then the FS size was much larger than
the actual size, I tracked this to the usage of ftw not accounting for
symlinks, I have a patch for that which I will send once I finish
getting the other issues resolved.
Next issue I hit was an assertion failure after getting "not enough free
space" message:
not enough free space
add_file_items failed
unable to traverse_directory
Making image is aborted.
mkfs.btrfs: mkfs.c:1542: main: Assertion `!(ret)' failed.
I am kind of stuck on this one, took it as far as I can right now.
Would I be better off dropping back to 0.19 or can we move forward
fixing this?
Thanks

I can reproduce this at will on Fedora 19 (with btrfs-progs-0.20), Ubuntu 12.10 (with btrfs-profs-0.19) and with HEAD from Chris's repo above (is this the right place these days)?

Hi Saul, Update on my end, the problem is the image code expects every file to fit inside a single chunk. It's only creating 8MB chunks, so any file over 8MB in size is causing problems. I'm fixing it up here, I should have a patch for you on Monday. Thanks! -chris ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread

Anyway, i think we do need some necessary btrfs-progs update(for example some regression bug fixes)… Thanks, Wang > > at branches tagged by date. > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in > the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread
