           Summary: btrfs: could not do orphan cleanup => mount fails upon
                    startup
    Classification: openSUSE
           Product: openSUSE 12.1

I do observe a strange behavior upon booting of my openSUSE 12.1 system (
kernel 3.1.10-1.9-desktop; x86_64 ) with btrfsprogs-0.19-43.7.1.x86_64 utils
installed:

The system has two btrfs-vols: root(sda7) & home(sda8) and had been created
during the system setup of openSUSE 12.1:

# btrfs filesystem show
Label: none  uuid: a288fcff-28c8-4764-8efe-1e0cb205d588
        Total devices 1 FS bytes used 27.25GB
        devid    1 size 106.88GB used 67.29GB path /dev/sda8

Label: none  uuid: 4b3e5746-31aa-405a-a41f-540376ea5110
        Total devices 1 FS bytes used 17.93GB
        devid    1 size 40.00GB used 25.54GB path /dev/sda7

Btrfs v0.19+

The home-volume can not be mounted upon started with the msg:
btrfs: Error removing orphan entry, stopping orphan cleanup
btrfs: could not do orphan cleanup -22

Booting from the latest systemrescuecd (based upon Linux-kernel-3.0 ) a
btrfsck-run on the home-vol(sda8) does not report any errors!
Whereas upon sda7 I got a lot of reportings concerning /tmp, /.snapshot, /var,
/srv, /opt.
But I'm sure these msgs are related to the openSUSE 12.1 way of setup including
the snapper-feature, because there a lot of subvols:

# btrfs subvolume list /
ID 256 top level 5 path tmp
ID 258 top level 5 path opt
ID 259 top level 5 path srv
ID 260 top level 5 path var/spool
ID 261 top level 5 path var/log
ID 262 top level 5 path var/run
ID 263 top level 5 path var/tmp
ID 271 top level 5 path .snapshots
ID 278 top level 5 path .snapshots/5/snapshot
ID 575 top level 5 path .snapshots/293/snapshot
...
... many, many more

Further I recognize in /var/log/messages some btrfs - orphan related entries:
Apr 17 09:06:57 ctrlaltdel kernel: [ 3120.205958] btrfs: unlinked 1 orphans

May  2 09:09:51 ctrlaltdel kernel: [   23.358868] btrfs: unlinked 1 orphans

Now the interesting part:
I can mount the home-vol RO and remount it RW without any error messages
logged!
Since now I do not get any hourly generated oprhans logs.

But upon a system restart I need to ro-mount with a following rw-remout
manually, again.

Any suggestions what to do?

Kind regards for your help.
