The integrity checker feature needs to be enabled at compile time (BTRFS_FS_CHECK_INTEGRITY) and then enabled by mount options check_int*. Although it provides some unique features which can not be provided by any other sanity checks like tree-checker, it does not only have high CPU and memory overhead, but is also a maintenance burden. For example, it's the only caller of btrfs_map_block() with @need_raid_map = 0. Considering most btrfs developers are not even testing this feature, I'm here to propose deprecation of this feature. For now only warning messages will be printed, the feature itself would still work. Removal time has been set to 6.7 release.

Btrfs is a general purpose copy-on-write filesystem with extents,
|
|
writable snapshotting, support for multiple devices and many more
|
|
features focused on fault tolerance, repair and easy administration.
|
|
|
|
The filesystem disk format is no longer unstable, and it's not
|
|
expected to change unless there are strong reasons to do so. If there
|
|
is a format change, file systems with a unchanged format will
|
|
continue to be mountable and usable by newer kernels.
|
|
|
|
For more information, please see the web pages at
|
|
http://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org.
|
|
|

To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here. The
|
|
module will be called btrfs.

This feature has been deprecated and will be removed in 6.7.
|
|
|
|
Adds code that examines all block write requests (including
|
|
writes of the super block). The goal is to verify that the
|
|
state of the filesystem on disk is always consistent, i.e.,
|
|
after a power-loss or kernel panic event the filesystem is
|
|
in a consistent state.
|
|
|
|
If the integrity check tool is included and activated in
|
|
the mount options, plenty of kernel memory is used, and
|
|
plenty of additional CPU cycles are spent. Enabling this
|
|
functionality is not intended for normal use.
