I have an encrypted LUKS partition, with btrfs for backups on it.

Kernel panic happened while system was mounted and performing receive/send operations during backup.

After restart no problem with LUKS itself, but on btrfs was found some errors and warnings:

btrfs ch -p /dev/mapper/bckp

Opening filesystem to check...

I run it with another superblock or with backup of root tree like:

btrfs ch -p -s 1 /dev/mapper/bckp

btrfs ch -p -b /dev/mapper/bckp

But with exactly same result and figures. I didn't run the repair option because it is marked as dangerous.

Are these errors reparable? How can I save the filesystem?

Thanks Emmanuel Rosa for your comment, you've pointed me to the right direction.

After i run scrub on a mounted volume
btrfs sc start -Bd /dev/mapper/bckp

I've got this result:
scrub device /dev/mapper/bckp (id 1) done scrub started at Thu Sep 12 13:28:38 2019 and finished after 05:12:29 total bytes scrubbed: 3.02TiB with 0 errors

No errors or warnings in logs.

So I again run btrfs check and finally got clean output:
bf ch -p /dev/mapper/bckp Opening filesystem to check...

My software is:
btrfs version
btrfs-progs v4.19

uname -rom
4.19.57-gentoo x86_64 GNU/Linux`

So FS is clean and usable again without any warnings, thank you for helping me.
