Forgot to mention before, but to get around 'chattr -c' not working, you can use:

btrfs property set some_dir_or_file ''

It requires btrfs-progs v3.14+.

This bug was the result of a Samba vfs_btrfs workload, which uses ioctl(FS_IOC_SETFLAGS/FS_IOC_GETFLAGS): http://git.samba.org/?p=samba.git;a=blob;f=source3/modules/vfs_btrfs.c;hb=HE... We could change it over to manipulate "btrfs.*" xattrs, but I'd prefer to keep it as is. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
