This would require some validation of the string past 'lzo', which is intentionally left out of this patch. > ---- > mount -o compress=lzoJUNK /dev/sdb /btrfs > mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb, > > [ 2128.045252] BTRFS error (device sdb): open_ctree failed > ---- > > With this patch.

Yes, this will succeed and will behave sanely, lzo will be used. > > Applicable since commit 63541927c8d11, v3.14. The patch was not marked for stable so it's up to anybody who wants to backport it to decide if the relaxed compression algorithm matching is ok or not. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

This is a minimal patch intended to be backported to older kernels. We're going to extend the string specifying the compression method and this would fail on kernels before that change (the string is compared exactly). Relax the string matching only to the prefix, ie. ignoring anything that goes after "zlib" or "lzo", regardless of th format extension we decide to use. This applies to the mount options and properties. That way, patched old kernels could be booted on systems already utilizing the new compression spec. Applicable since commit 63541927c8d11, v3.14.
