New sysfs attributes that track the filesystem status of devices, stored
in the per-filesystem directory in /sys/fs/btrfs/FSID/devinfo . There's
a directory for each device, with name corresponding to the numerical
device id.
in_fs_metadata - device is in the list of fs metadata
missing - device is missing (no device node or block device)
replace_target - device is target of replace
writeable - writes from fs are allowed
These attributes reflect the state of the device::dev_state and created
at mount time.
Sample output:
$ pwd
/sys/fs/btrfs/6e1961f1-5918-4ecc-a22f-948897b409f7/devinfo/1/
$ ls
in_fs_metadata missing replace_target writeable
$ cat missing
0
The output from these attributes are 0 or 1. 0 indicates unset and 1
indicates set. These attributes are readonly.
It is observed that the device delete thread and sysfs read thread will
not race because the delete thread calls sysfs kobject_put() which in
turn waits for existing sysfs read to complete.
Note for device replace devid swap:
During the replace the target device temporarily assumes devid 0 before
assigning the devid of the soruce device.
In btrfs_dev_replace_finishing() we remove source sysfs devid using the
function btrfs_sysfs_remove_devices_attr(), so after that call
kobject_rename() to update the devid in the sysfs. This adds and calls
btrfs_sysfs_update_devid() helper function to update the device id.

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.
