Subject: Re: bug caused by removal of trans_mutex? (Was: Re: kernel BUG at fs/btrfs/extent-tree.c:6164!)
Date: Tue, 14 Jun 2011 14:53:26 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <BANLkTi=NxkP5OAhKSdTdY7Skj8xGOfaeBg@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <4DF5B889.5080202@cn.fujitsu.com>

I found another bug. There are codes (btrfs_save_ino_cache) that
modify fs trees after
create_pending_snapshots is called. This can corrupt your fs.
