Subject: fsck can't find btrfs

Date: Thu, 10 Feb 2011 23:37:02 +0300

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Package: btrfs-tools
Version: 0.19+20100601-3

fsck can't find fsck.btrfs for automatical checking because it not exists.
Can you add this script to package (/sbin/fsck.btrfs):

#!/bin/sh

btrfsck "`echo "$@" | sed -e 's/ /\n/g' | grep "/"`";
exit 0;

Subject: fsck failing because it can't find fsck.btrfs

Date: Fri, 01 Jul 2011 05:21:40 +0100

This bug seems to have got a whole lot worse by the last upgrade to my 
system because now I am thrown into maintenance mode with root mounted 
read-only.

My solution was to provide a symbolic link so that /sbin/fsck.btrfs 
points at /sbin/btrfsck


I still seem to get some form of failure reported during boot up, but at 
least it does finish at put me into the gdm prompt

Ran into this today (in a VM I hadn't upgraded for a while); looks
like it was caused by

  * Removing fsck.btrfs symlink to circumvent that btrfsck doesn't
    support -a.

in version 0.19-11.  Which makes sense --- btrfsck doesn't know how to
repair filesystems with guidance from the user yet, so it certainly
can't automatically repair them.

Still, I believe it would be best to allow btrfsck to act as fsck when
the filesystem is not broken.  Would some script along these lines
make sense?

	#!/bin/sh
	# fsck.btrfs - Wrapper for btrfsck to work around the latter's
	# lack of support for "-a".

	shell_quote () {
		# Wrap stdin in single-quotes,
		# quoting embedded single-quotes as '\''.

		sed -e "s/'/'\\\\''/g" \
		    -e "s/.*/'&'/"
	}

	args=
	while test "${1+set}"
	do
		if test "$1" = -a
		then
			echo >&2 'warning: btrfsck cannot repair filesystem corruption!'
		else
			args="$args $(printf "%s\n" "$1" | shell_quote)"
		fi
		shift
	done
	eval "exec btrfsck $args"

Thanks,
Jonathan

I have same trouble too.
My work around was working on other systemthat:
cp /path/to/root/sbin/btrfsck /path/to/root/sbin/fsck.btrfs

But, it hasn't been a good hack.

As you know, btrfsck's synopsis is very simple: btrfsck  device
But fsck.hoge did -a option.
So, while boot, an error saying "-a device is not available" or so.

And btrfsck does not do anything but just read.

Judging from above, this way is possibly to be a good hack,
ln -s /bin/true /sbin/btrfsck
and/or
Mail to root when a system dist-upgraded to recommend that:
In fstab, the last column of / would be 0

Anyway, it is not friendly way when dist-upgrade, turned off,
and reboot, then there is no rule to fsck.btrfs.

Thanks.

Alas, the answer appears to be "no" for now.

	warning: btrfsck cannot repair filesystem corruption - suppressing "-a" option
	check_mounted(): Could not open /run/rootdev
	Could not check mount status: Unknown error 18446744073709551610
	fsck died with exit status 250

Thanks, and sorry for the noise.
