I was getting this error before using the amd 5.19 kernel. Now the arch 5.19 kernel is showing the same since i just updated? This is on btrfs also that was installed with swap file. Also running btrfs-assistant with snapshots.

I’m on btrfs with half my ram to Swap (8GB) setup from the defaults for Calamares install. Just installed 5.19.1.arch2-1, so gonna reboot and see if my system has similar errors or not, so will edit this in a moment. Sorry you’re having some issues mate.
Edit: Now on 5.19.1.arch2-1 and I get the same results as before, no errors to report on my system.

Just adding another bit of information: my system is fully Luks Encrypted. (included the Swapfile).
Not sure it has something to do with the issue, but…
And just to confirm: Swapfile works as it should on the LTS Kernel. The issue appears to be at the moment only with the 5.19 and 5.19-Zen Kernels
I also configured manually the Swapfile 2 months ago, AFTER installing the system with Calamares and without Swap. (In others words: the Swap was not configured by Calamares)
@ricklinux , I have found a workaround… I have just deleted my swapfile and recreated it.
Now it works with the 5.19 Kernel.
As I want a 16Gb Swapfile, I used count=16384
Seems like this worked now to activate swap. I noticed the error message using the amd kernel originally which was 5.19 version but i didn’t have the error message on boot with the current kernel. I thought it was just an amd kernel issue but then it showed up with the 5.19 current kernel. Thanks for the info.
chattr +C : No copy-on-write. If two processes request access to a file, they can be given pointers to the same file. They are only given their own unique copy of the file if they try to write to the file, making it unique to that process.
I don’t really understand the no copy on write very well. I’m not well versed in this area with permissions and files. Guess i need to read more and try to.
