No, the productive system was always on a reasonably recent kernel. I guess that this instance of btrfs has never been mounted on anything older than 4.4.4. The rescue system I used to btrfs check (4.4-1 from Debian unstable, I updated btrfs-tools on the rescue system before going btrfs check) had kernel 3.16, but I have never actually mounted the btrfs there. > >Then btrfs check is a userspace-only matter, as it wants the fs > >unmounted, and it is irrelevant that I did btrfs check from a rescue > >system with an older kernel, 3.16 if I recall correctly. > > Not recommended to use older kernel to RW mount or use older fsck to do > repair. Oldest kernel that has mounted this btrfs is 4.4.4, fsck that touched the fs is 4.4.

This does not work on kernel 4.4.6 with tools 4.4. Truckloads of kernel traces, "WARNING: CPU: 5 PID: 31021 at fs/btrfs/extent-tree.c:7897 btrfs_alloc_tree_block+0xeb/0x3d6 [btrfs]()", "BTRFS: block rsv returned -28", full trace is in this thread.
