Hi,

From what I have read BTRFS does replace a bad copy of data with a kn=
own
good copy (if it has one). Will BTRFS try to repair the corrupt data =
or will
it simply silently restore the data without the user knowing that a f=
ile has
been "fixed"?
=46rom what I've seen, it'll quietly restore the data without the user
knowing. The only indication would be in dmesg where there should be a
message about incorrect checksums and btrfs fixing it automatically.
