"ERROR: short read from stream..." when using btrfs-progs-4.8.4 #117

Open digint opened 7 years ago

digint commented 7 years ago

when using btrfs-progs-4.8.4, many (all?) btrfs receive operations fail with:

ERROR: short read from stream: expected 17 read 0

This seems to be a regression introduced with btrfs-progs-4.8.4, and is being investigated.

As a workaround, please downgrade to btrfs-progs-4.8.3 (at least on the "receive" (backup) host)

It seems this regression is also fixed upstream in btrfs-progs-4.8.5 by now (I both checked the changelog and also actually tested the new version).

I can also confirm it fixed in btrfs-progs-4.8.5.

Leaving this issue open for a while, just in case someone still stumbles into it.
