Support for a new command that can be used eg. as a command $ btrfs device scan --forget [dev]' (the final name may change though) to undo the effects of 'btrfs device scan [dev]'. For this purpose this patch proposes to use ioctl #5 as it was empty and is next to the SCAN ioctl. The new ioctl BTRFS_IOC_FORGET_DEV works only on the control device (/dev/btrfs-control) to unregister one or all devices, devices that are not mounted. The argument is struct btrfs_ioctl_vol_args, ::name specifies the device path. To unregister all device, the path is an empty string. Again, the devices are removed only if they aren't part of a mounte filesystem. This new ioctl provides: - release of unwanted btrfs_fs_devices and btrfs_devices structures from memory if the device is not going to be mounted - ability to mount filesystem in degraded mode, when one devices is corrupted like in split brain raid1 - running test cases which would require reloading the kernel module but this is not possible eg. due to mounted filesystem or built-in Signed-off-by: Anand Jain <anand.jain@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com> [ update changelog ] Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
