In order to gracefully handle split-brain scenario during fsid change (which are very unlikely, yet possible), two more pieces of information will be necessary: 1. The highest generation number among all devices registered to a particular btrfs_fs_devices 2. A boolean flag whether a given btrfs_fs_devices was created by a device which had the FSID_CHANGING_V2 flag set. This is a preparatory patch and just introduces the variables as well as code which sets them, their actual use is going to happen in a later patch.

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.
