It appears that btrfs root images built with ROOTFS_TYPE=btrfs are currently broken.  E.g., attempting to boot with a btrfs root:

 

Starting kernel ...

Loading, please wait...
starting version 232

Begin: Running /scripts/init-premount ... done.
Begin: Mounting root file system ... Begin: Running /scripts/local-top ... done.

Rebooting automatically due to panic= boot argument
[   11.978967] reboot: Restarting system
INFO:    PSCI Affinity Map:

This happens with both BRANCH=next and BRANCH=dev builds (4.14 and 4.18).  ext4 roots work fine, of course.

 

Interestingly, if you boot an ext4 image on an SD card, and then use armbian-config to flash the image to eMMC using btrfs for the root filesystem, then the same boot problem occurs.  Something seems to have broken in terms of btrfs support in the initrd...  Any ideas?

I noticed and briefly checked. Perhaps here is the problem: https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/1069
