we would need btrfs_scan_one_dir to san devs under /dev/mapper, but /dev/mapper has links to the actual devs and current implementation of btrfs_scan_one_dir skips links so it does not pick any links under /dev/mapper. skipping links is fine when scanning whole of /dev. But when we just want to scan /dev/mapper we want to avoid skipping links otherwise we would be left with nothing. This patch just adds the check if we are scanning devs ONLY under /dev/mapper if when so it will not skip links Thanks Signed-off-by: Anand Jain <anand.jain@oracle.com> --- utils.c | 8 ++++++-- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-)
