There is a bug in reddit (well, really the last place I expect to see bug reports)Why? People discuss things where they're used to, reddit is one of them and from what I've seen there are good questions or usage recommendations. Some of that goes to documentation or helps to tune usability.
Well, I'm more used to see memes/trolls there, maybe it's per-subreddit. Anyway next time I would drop the prejudice. Thanks, Qu

that btrfstune -u fails due to transid error, but it also leaves CHANGING_FSID flag to the super block, prevent btrfs-check to properly check the fs. The problem is, all commands in btrfs-progs can ignore transid error, but there are only very limited usage of such ability. Btrfstune definitely should not utilize this feature. This patchset will introduce a new open ctree flag to explicitly indicate we want to ignore transid errors. Currently only there are only 3 tools using this feature: - btrfs-check It may fix transid error (at least for the specific test case) - btrfs-restore It wants to ignore all errors. - btrfs-image To make fsck/002 happy. Also add a test case for btrfstune, to make sure btrfstune can rejects the fs when an obvious transid mismatch is detected during open_ctree().
