Btrfs Changes Land In Linux 6.14 With New RAID1 Round-Robin Option


In addition to the Bcachefs changes for the Linux 6.14 kernel, the Btrfs file-system feature updates have also been submitted and merged for this next version of the Linux kernel.

Btrfs with Linux 6.14 introduces an experimental RAID1 round-robin read mode as previously covered plus several other adjustments to this copy-on-write file-system. Or there is also a new round-robin mode that balances reads across devices relevant for the requested I/O range. The VERITY metadata from a file includes the Merkle tree, the descriptor, and the built-in signature where available.
