Currently we allow an encoded write against inodes that have the NODATASUM flag set, either because they are NOCOW files or they were created while the filesystem was mounted with "-o nodatasum". This results in having compressed extents without corresponding checksums, which is a filesystem inconsistency reported by 'btrfs check'. For example, running btrfs/281 with MOUNT_OPTIONS="-o nodatacow" triggers this and 'btrfs check' errors out with: [1/7] checking root items [2/7] checking extents [3/7] checking free space tree [4/7] checking fs roots root 256 inode 257 errors 1040, bad file extent, some csum missing root 256 inode 258 errors 1040, bad file extent, some csum missing ERROR: errors found in fs roots (...) So reject encoded writes if the target inode has NODATASUM set.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
