Wrong path to the subvolume explains why 'list' and 'show' differ. They're the same. But question remains what's changing these read only snapshots' generation numbers, and whether it's expected.

btrfs-progs-4.7.3-1.fc26.x86_64 I've been seeing this behavior for awhile (months, maybe a year) where 'list' generation does not match 'show' generation for a read only snapshot. All of the items in this list are read only snapshots, and the only one that has a valid list and show generation is the last one. The generation 8019 is from today, but these read only snapshots were created on their respective dates and have totally different generations. My expectation is that upon creating a read only snapshot, the gen for that subvolum should be set in stone and never change again. Show seems to agree, but list is coming up with something different.
