Subject: BUG: Replacing a directory with a subvolume breaks incremental snapshots
Date: Fri, 23 May 2014 19:24:09 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <538002C9.8080503@pobox.com> (raw)

Howdy,

If you remove an existing directory and then create a subvolume with the 
same name the incremental send (btrfs send -p) will die with errno==2 
(file not found).

Steps to Reproduce:

btrfs subvol create scratch # make a playground
mkdir scratch/example
btrfs subvol snap -r scratch scratch_BEFORE
rmdir scratch/example
btrfs subvol create scratch/example
btrfs subvol snap -r scratch scratch_AFTER
btrfs send -p scratch_BEFORE scratch_AFTER >/dev/null

The output produced:
At subvol scratch_AFTER
ERROR: send ioctl failed with -2: No such file or directory
