+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+'btrfs restore' [options] <device> <path> | -l <device>
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+'btrfs restore' is used to try to salvage files from a damaged filesystem and
+restore them into <path> or just list the tree roots.
+
+Since current `btrfsck`(8) or `btrfs-rescue`(8) only has very limited usage,
+'btrfs restore' is normally a better choice.
+

+
+-x::

+
+-v::
+verbose.
+
+-i::
+ignore errors.
+

+overwrite directories/files in <path>.
+
+-t <location>::
+use <location> to read root tree.
+
+-f <offset>::
+use <offset> to read fs tree.
+
+-u <block>::
+use given superblock mirror identified by <block>.
+
+-r <rootid>::
+use <rootid> as root objectid.
+
+-d::
+find dir.
+
+-l::
+list tree roots.
+
+EXIT STATUS
+-----------
+'btrfs restore' returns a zero exist status if it succeeds. Non zero is
+returned in case of failure.
+
+AVAILABILITY
+------------
+'btrfs' is part of btrfs-progs. Btrfs filesystem is currently under heavy
+development,
+and not suitable for any uses other than benchmarking and review.

+further details.
