So Qu,
I'm not seeing any EPERM errors, though I see the following so you might
be right:
openat(AT_FDCWD, "/dev/sdb1", O_RDWR) = 5
followed by a lot of preads, the last one of which is:
pread64(5, 0x557a0abd10b0, 4096, 2732765184) = -1 EIO (Input/output
error)
This is then followed by a a lot of pwrites, the last 10 or so syscalls
are:
pwrite64(5, "\220\255\262\244\0\0\0\0\0\0"..., 16384, 91127808) = 16384
pwrite64(5, "|IO\233\0\0\0\0\0\0"..., 16384, 91144192) = 16384
pwrite64(5, "x\2501n\0\0\0\0\0\0"..., 16384, 91160576) = 16384
pwrite64(5, "\252\254l)\0\0\0\0\0\0"..., 16384, 91176960) = 16384
pwrite64(5, "P\256\331\373\0\0\0\0\0\0"..., 16384, 91193344) = 16384
pwrite64(5, "\3\230\230+\0\0\0\0\0\0"..., 4096, 83951616) = 4096
write(2, "ERROR: ", 7) = 7
write(2, "failed to "..., 37) = 37
write(2, "\n", 1) = 1
close(4) = 0
write(2, "WARNING: ", 9) = 9
write(2, "an error o"..., 104) = 104
write(2, "\n", 1) = 1
exit_group(1) = ?
but looking at migrate_super_block it's not doing that many writes -
just writing the sb at BTRFS_SUPER_INFO_OFFSET and then zeroing out
0..BTRFS_SUPER_INFO_OFFSET. Also the number of pwrites:
grep -c pwrite ~/Downloads/btrfs-issue/convert-strace.log
198
So the failure is not originating from migrate_super_block.
