Description Dan Dragomir 2016-04-03 10:35:13 UTC
Description of problem:

btrfs check complains about a bunch of error like this one:
bad extent [347045888, 347062272), type mismatch with chunk
which are false positives.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

[dan@tauron backup]$ btrfs --version
btrfs-progs v4.3.1

How reproducible:

run btrfs check on a filesystem that triggers the false positive

Actual results:

btrfs reports false positives about mismatched chunks

Expected results:

btrfs doesn't report false positives

Additional info:

This is a bug recognized by upstream and fixed in version 4.4.1 [1]. The mismatch check was introduced to recognize some filesystems created with mkfs.btrfs v.4.1.1 [2], but it produced false positives on some correct filesystems.

A simple fix for this bug is to update Fedora's package to btrfs-progs 4.4.1 or later. I compiled the same version from source and it's not reporting any errors on my filesystem.
