    btrfs: allow balancing to dup with multi-device · 88be159c
    Austin S. Hemmelgarn 提交于
    Currently, we don't allow the user to try and rebalance to a dup profile
    on a multi-device filesystem.  In most cases, this is a perfectly sensible
    restriction as raid1 uses the same amount of space and provides better
    protection.
    
    However, when reshaping a multi-device filesystem down to a single device
    filesystem, this requires the user to convert metadata and system chunks
    to single profile before deleting devices, and then convert again to dup,
    which leaves a period of time where metadata integrity is reduced.
    
    This patch removes the single-device-only restriction from converting to
    dup profile to remove this potential data integrity reduction.
