btrfs_free_extra_devids() updates fs_devices::latest_bdev to point to
the bdev with greatest device::generation number. For a typical-missing
device the generation number is zero so fs_devices::latest_bdev will
never point to it.
But if the missing device is due to alienation [1], then
device::generation is not zero and if it is greater or equal to the rest
of device generations in the list, then fs_devices::latest_bdev ends up
pointing to the missing device and reports the error like [2].
[1] We maintain devices of a fsid (as in fs_device::fsid) in the
fs_devices::devices list, a device is considered as an alien device
if its fsid does not match with the fs_device::fsid
Consider a working filesystem with raid1:
$ mkfs.btrfs -f -d raid1 -m raid1 /dev/sda /dev/sdb
$ mount /dev/sda /mnt-raid1
$ umount /mnt-raid1
While mnt-raid1 was unmounted the user force-adds one of its devices to
another btrfs filesystem:
$ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdc
$ mount /dev/sdc /mnt-single
$ btrfs dev add -f /dev/sda /mnt-single
Now the original mnt-raid1 fails to mount in degraded mode, because
fs_devices::latest_bdev is pointing to the alien device.
$ mount -o degraded /dev/sdb /mnt-raid1
[2]
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so.
kernel: BTRFS warning (device sdb): devid 1 uuid 072a0192-675b-4d5a-8640-a5cf2b2c704d is missing
kernel: BTRFS error (device sdb): failed to read devices
kernel: BTRFS error (device sdb): open_ctree failed
Fix the root cause by checking if the device is not missing before it
can be considered for the fs_devices::latest_bdev.

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.
