[ENHANCEMENT]
When mounting a btrfs filesystem, the filesystem opens the block device,
and if this fails, there is no message about it. Print a message about
it to help debugging.
[TEST]
I have a btrfs filesystem on three block devices, one of which is
write-protected, so regular mounts fail, but there is no message in
dmesg.
/dev/vdb normal
/dev/vdc write protected
/dev/vdd normal
Before patch:
$ sudo mount /dev/vdb /mnt/
mount: mount(2) failed: no such file or directory
$ sudo dmesg # Show only messages about missing block devices
....
[ 352.947196] BTRFS error (device vdb): devid 2 uuid
4ee2c625-a3b2-4fe0-b411-
756b23e08533 missing
....
After patch:
$ sudo mount /dev/vdb /mnt/
mount: mount(2) failed: no such file or directory
$ sudo dmesg # Show bdev_file_open_by_path failed.
....
[ 352.944328] BTRFS error: failed to open device for path /dev/vdc with flags 0x3: -13
