[Christian Wimmer]

Hi, my name is Chris, 

is this the right place for asking on support on how to repair a broken btrfs?

There is no hardware problem, just that the power went out and now I can not mount any more.

Who is the best specialist that could help here?

Of course I already scanned the WEB some hours and tried all not-destructive commands without success.

Thanks for any help,

Chris

   What does dmesg say when you try to mount the FS?

   "Non-destructive" is a fairly limited of things, and most of the
easily-findable advice on the web about fixing btrfs filesystems is at
best badly misguided, if not actively wrong. :(

   Can you also tell us exactly what you ran?

Hi Hugo,

I am so happy to hear your voice!

I would be very happy if you could help me get my filesystem back working.

Here is my setup (little special):

Mac Mini 2018
Inside Mac Mini I run Parallels and inside Parallels I run Suse 15.2
Promise Pegasus R8 with 32TB, divided into a 24TB and 4TB partition formatted under Mac OS.
Inside Promise Pegasus Storage (the 24TB Partition) I have the virtual disc that is attached to the Parallels Linux.
This virtual disc is formatted with btrfs and appears in Linux under:

Disk /dev/sde: 11.7 TiB, 12884901888000 bytes, 25165824000 sectors
Disk model: Linux_raid5_12tb
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes
Disklabel type: gpt
Disk identifier: 2EFA3FA4-8849-40CE-A065-6CDF3581894B

Device     Start         End     Sectors  Size Type
/dev/sde1   2048 25165821951 25165819904 11.7T Linux filesystem


When I try to mount it this happens:

# mount /dev/sde1 /home/promise/
mount: /home/promise: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sde1, missing codepage or helper program, or other error.
# 

dmesg says:

linux-ze6w:/home/chris # btrfs restore -v /dev/sde1 test/


Now what I did in order for all this to happen was the following:

I was editing a file inside Linux with sublime_text.
Inside this editor I wanted to "replay macro” and the command for it is CTRL-ALT-SHIFT-Q which is the same command for rebooting the MAC.
When I pressed that command it was already too late and my Mac began to reboot, doing a suspend of the virtual machine.
So far so good.
I rebooted the MAC and started Parallels and the suspended Linux woke up again and I entered in the /home/promise directory where /dev/sde1 is mounted and I say only some 
files instead of all 5TB data. Some directories were empty, some had broken links and so on.
So I discovered that something went wrong during reboot and thus I shut down the linux.
When I started linux again, I could not mount any more the promise.

Please help me to get out of this.

I did a backup of the 5,5TB hard disc file of Parallels, so we can play a little.

What would you suggest to do?
Actually I do not need all files of that disc, only some. IS there any chance to mount and copy what I need?

Thanks a lot for your patience and your time for reading this Hugo.

Best regards,

Chris

[Christian Wimmer]

Hi Hugo,


just for your information. I run following command on the  backup file:

# btrfs rescue chunk-recover -v /dev/sde1
All Devices:
        Device: id = 1, name = /dev/sde1

Scanning: 575601561600 in dev0chunk-recover.c:129: process_extent_buffer: BUG_ON `exist->nmirrors >= BTRFS_MAX_MIRRORS` triggered, value 1

/lib64/libc.so.6(clone+0x3f)[0x7f351bc209ef]

Seems to be a bug in the btrfs program.

For btrfs, we'd recommend to use at least latest LTS kernel.

Although SUSE is supporting BTRFS, its SLE kernel is still a little
older, not the best place to start for data salvage.

For your case, later kernel will output which tree is corrupted, so we
could provide a lot of good info.

Device tree is completely fine to lose. We can easily rebuild it if it's
the only corruption.

Would you please try the following dump?

# btrfs ins dump-tree -t root /dev/sde1 2>&1
# btrfs ins dump-tree -t extent /dev/sde1 2>&1 >/dev/null
# btrfs ins dump-tree -t chunk /dev/sde1
# btrfs ins dump-tree -t 5 /dev/sde1 2>&1 >/dev/null
# btrfs ins dump-tree -t <subvol_id> /dev/sde1 2>&1 >/dev/null

Except the chunk and root tree dump, we only care about the stderr, to
make sure no tree corruption.

If no other error happened, we can easily ignore device tree error.


Furthermore, for newer btrfs-progs, we will automatically ignore device
tree if we can't read it.
Thus it can continue salvaging your data.

Thanks,
Qu

I will try to setup a newer kernel. Which Distro you would suggest for this purpose?
The idea is to download and install a small linux just for recovery purpose for now.

Thanks,

Too old. Please use latest version btrfs-progs.

Just as mentioned, SLE is not a good choice for btrfs-progs.

Archlinux ISO is good enough if you only want latest btrfs-progs.

For kernel it's just several weeks older, but for your case, kernel
isn't a big concern.
As either you will need to compile kernel with out-of-tree patches, or
Arch kernel will be more than enough.

My bad, after looking into the code, we skipped all other trees but not
device tree.
That why even latest btrfs-progs won't work.

I have sent a patch to you, which you can apply it on btrfs-progs v5.4,
and compile it (no need to install), then use that compiled btrfs
command to retry.

For recompile btrfs-progs, you may need the following packages (and
groups) under Arch:

# pacman -S base-devel e2fsprogs asciidoc xmlto xmltoman attr libutil-linux

Then you should be able to continue.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thanks,
Qu

Re: is this the right place for a question on how to repair a broken btrfs file system?

[Christian Wimmer]

Hi Qu and Hugo,

I think all the emails to you were rejected by the your mail server.

For this reason I am writing here in plain text what happened.

I could succeed in compiling the latest version of btrfs-progs and I applied the patch you sent and I got a lot of output.

How can I pass this output to you for analysis?

Thanks for your help,

Chris
