* Btrfs-progs: btrfs subvolume delete could delete subvolumesAnand Jain2012-10-04
| | | | | | | | | With this user will be able to provide more than one subvolume to delete. eg: btrfs subvolume delete <subvol1> <subvol2> Signed-off-by: Anand Jain <anand.jain@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@fusionio.com>
* Btrfs-Progs: update '-s' option without a argument.Wang Shilong2012-10-04
| | | | | | | Since '--sort' options was given ,and we can list snapshots in generation order by --sort=+/-gen to replace '-s [0|1]' totally. Signed-off-by: Wang Shilong <wangsl-fnst@cn.fujistsu.com>
* Btrfs-progs: introduces '-a' option into subvolume list commandWang Shilong2012-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We list the subvolumes under current directory according to the input subvolume. However, if we still want to list all the subvolumes in the tree, we can use '-a' option to help us. There may be two kinds of path: absolute path , relative path . The absolute path is beginning with "<FS_TREE>" The relative path is under current path that you input. Signed-off-by: Wang Shilong <wangsl-fnst@cn.fujitsu.com>
* Btrfs-progs: introduce '-t' option into subvolume list commandMiao Xie2012-10-04
| | | | | | | | This patch introduces '-t' option into subvolume list command. By this option, we can output the result as a table. Signed-off-by: Wang Shilong <wangsl-fnst@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Miao Xie <miaox@cn.fujitsu.com>
* Btrfs-progs: introduce -g -c --sort options into btrfs subvol list commandwangshilong2012-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch introduces '-g' '-c' '--sort' options The option '-g' can help you filter the subvolumes by the generation, you may use it just like: btrfs subvol list -g +/-value <path> '+' means the generation of the subvolumes should >= the value you specified. '-' means the generation should <= the value If you don't input either '+' nor '-', this command will list the subvolumes that their generation equals to the value. However if you want to find gengeration between value1 and value2 you may use the above like: btrfs sub list -g -value1 -g +value2 <path> The option '-c' can help you filter the subvolumes by the ogeneration, you may use it just like: btrfs subvol list -c +/-value <path> The usage is the same to '-g' You might want to list subvolumes in order of some items, such as root id, gen and so on, you can use '--sort'. Now you can sort the subvolumes by root id, gen, ogen and path. For example: If you want to list subvolumes in order of rootid, you can use the option like that: btrfs sub list --sort=+/-rooid <path> Here, '+' means the result is sorted by ascending order. '-' is by descending order. If you don't specify either '+' nor '-', the result is sorted by default - ascending order. If you want to combine sort items, you do it like that: btrfs sub list --sort=-rootid,+path,ogen,gen <path> Signed-off-by: Wang Shilong <wangsl-fnst@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Miao Xie <miaox@cn.fujitsu.com>

* Btrfs-progs: Fix manual of btrfs commandAkira Fujita2012-07-03
| | | | | | | | | Usage of balancing btrfs is "btrfs filesystem balance", not "btrfs device balance". And remove unneeded usage of "btrfs filesystem defrag". Also fix some typos and over 80 columns. Signed-off-by: Akira Fujita <a-fujita@rs.jp.nec.com>
* btrfs-progs: Update resize documentationShawn Bohrer2012-07-03
| | | | | | | | | | | The btrfs filesystem resize command defaults to only resizing the filesystem for devid 1, and must have a devid passed in to resize the filesystem for the other devices in the filesystem. Additionally the documentation lacked information on how to actually resize the underlying partition so this provides a little more detail. Signed-off-by: Shawn Bohrer <shawn.bohrer@gmail.com>

* Scan the devices listed in /proc/partitionsGoffredo Baroncelli2011-10-25
| | | | | | | | | | | During the commands: - btrfs filesystem show - btrfs device scan the devices "scanned" are extracted from /proc/partitions. This should avoid to scan devices not suitable for a btrfs filesystem like cdrom and floppy or to scan not existant devices. The old behavior (scan all the block devices under /dev) may be forced passing the "--all-devices" switch.

* Add the "btrfs filesystem label" commandGoffredo Baroncelli2011-10-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hi all, this patch adds the command "btrfs filesystem label" to change (or show) the label of a filesystem. This patch is a subset of the one written previously by Morey Roof. I included the user space part only. So it is possible only to change/show a label of a *single device* and *unounted* filesystem. The reason of excluding the kernel space part, is to simplify the patch in order to speed the check and then the merging of the patch itself. In fact I have to point out that in the past there was almost three attempts to propose this patch, without success neither complaints. Chris, let me know how you want to proceed. I know that you are very busy, and you prefer to work to stabilize btrfs instead adding new feature. But I think that changing a label is a *essential* feature for a filesystem managing tool. Think about a mount by LABEL. To show a label $ btrfs filesystem label <device> To set a label $ btrfs filesystem label <device> <newlabel> Please guys, give a look to the source. Comments are welcome. You can pull the source from the branch "label" of the repository http://cassiopea.homelinux.net/git/btrfs-progs-unstable.git Regards G.Baroncelli Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
* Update/clean up btrfs help and man page V2Goffredo Baroncelli2011-10-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hi all, enclose you can find a patch which improves the help of the btrfs commands, updates the INSTALL file and the btrfs (command) man page. Regarding the help of the btrfs command: - moved the "subvolume set-default" command in the "subvolume" commands group - removed a wrong new line - small tweak on the basis of Andreas suggestion Regarding the btrfs command man page: - renaming the command "device balance" in "filesystem balance" (thanks to Andreas Phillipp to highlight that) - adding the entry "subvolume find-new" - document the switches of the command "filesystem defrag" - document the <devid> facility of the command "filesystem resize" - small tweak on the basis of Andreas suggestion Regarding the INSTALL file, which was very old, I removed the reference of the old btrfsctl utility and changed the examples using the btrfs command. I removed the old (and now wrong) statement about the inability to delete a subvolume/snapshot Chris, you can pull the patch from the branch "help_cleanup" of the following repository. http://cassiopea.homelinux.net/git/btrfs-progs-unstable.git (or you can browse the changes at http://cassiopea.homelinux.net/git/btrfs-progs-unstable.git/?p=btrfs- progs-unstable-all.git;a=summary) The patch is very simple: only updates the man page, the INSTALL file and moves/updates some lines in the help of btrfs command. Comments are welcome.
