[Bug 771748] Re: Ubuntu does fsck on every start when using btrfs
I really don't want to special case btrfs. But I see that with very large hard-drives it can be a pain. Note, that earlier mentions of ext4 do not apply here as most of the time it, fsck on ext4 quits reporting filesystems as clean. Maybe a configuration options should be included to prevent including btrfs fsck into initramfs if one doesn't want to but then no btrfsck will be available in the initramfs, when one would want / need it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/771748 Title: Ubuntu does fsck on every start when using btrfs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/btrfs-tools/+bug/771748/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 771748] Re: Ubuntu does fsck on every start when using btrfs
A quick work around if the bootup speed is really killing you and since btrfsck doesn't do much yet. Please realize this prevents mountall from running btrfsck and this is NOT a fix. You can move btrfsck somewhere where you can still use it: $ sudo mv /sbin/btrfsck /usr/local/bin/ Then make a symbolic link to something like false: $ sudo ln -s /bin/false /sbin/btrfsck Also note that if btrfs-tools is updated or reinstalled, you have to do this again. Hopefully a full btrfsck will be out soon.

Dmitrijs Ledkovs, you are absolutely correct that this is not a Linux kernel bug, but Quantal is still currently using Btrfs v0.19 with the same btrfsck.

[Bug 771748] Re: Ubuntu does fsck on every start when using btrfs
Curtis Lee Bolin, quantal has much newer btrfs-tool, which have newer fsck tool. If it is still so slow for you, the best procedure is to request the upstream btrfsck to support standard flags of checking if the disk is dirty/fsck not run in a while and only then spend 9 minutes fscking.

[Bug 771748] Re: Ubuntu does fsck on every start when using btrfs
If you read the btrfsck manual even in quantal, you will see: Btrfs is currently under heavy development, and not suitable for any uses other than benchmarking and review. I took that into consideration before working around the long scan at boot. Anyone that is using btrfs is clearly experimenting. I'm just passing it on to the other people experimenting (the people reading this bug report). I'm confident the developers are on track.

[Bug 771748] Re: Ubuntu does fsck on every start when using btrfs
This is not a bug in mountall. fsck is meant to be called for all filesystems at boot, and it's the responsibility of the per-filesystem fsck implementation to figure out if the filesystem is clean or if something needs to be done. If fsck.btrfs doesn't provide the standard interface for fsck, that needs to be fixed in btrfs-tools. ** Package changed: mountall (Ubuntu) = btrfs-tools (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/771748 Title: Ubuntu does fsck on every start when using btrfs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/btrfs-tools/+bug/771748/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Seems to concern only systems with a btrfs partition regardless of mount point.

[Bug 771748] Re: Ubuntu does fsck on every start when using btrfs
There's actually a very simple fsck for btrfs (btrfsck), but it's very primitive and doesn't support any of the command line options yet. Maybe something calls it, and expects it to support some command line option?

OK, then mountall is the offender here, because that's what /etc/init/mountall.conf calls.
