From 10a3a3edc5b89a8cd095bc63495fb1e0f42047d9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Sterba Date: Wed, 5 Feb 2020 17:12:28 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: log message when rw remount is attempted with unclean tree-log A remount to a read-write filesystem is not safe when there's tree-log to be replayed. Files that could be opened until now might be affected by the changes in the tree-log. A regular mount is needed to replay the log so the filesystem presents the consistent view with the pending changes included.
