* btrfs-progs: revert skinny extents changes from mkfsDavid Sterba2013-04-23

* Btrfs-progs: add skinny metadata support to progs V3Josef Bacik2013-04-23
| | | | | | | | | This fixes up the progs to properly deal with skinny metadata. This adds the -x option to mkfs and btrfstune for enabling the skinny metadata option. This also makes changes to fsck so it can properly deal with the skinny metadata entries. Thanks, Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <jbacik@fusionio.com>

* btrfs-progs: document force option in mkfs usage(); add long optEric Sandeen2013-03-14
| | | | | | | | | | I missed updating the mkfs.btrfs usage() when I added the option to force fs overwrite. Update that, and while we're at it add a long option, since all other commands have long counterparts. Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com>
* btrfs-progs: require mkfs -f force option to overwrite filesystem or ↵Eric Sandeen2013-02-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | partition table The core of this is shamelessly stolen from xfsprogs. Use blkid to detect an existing filesystem or partition table on any of the target devices. If something is found, require the '-f' option to overwrite it, hopefully avoiding disaster due to mistyped devicenames, etc. # mkfs.btrfs /dev/sda1 WARNING! - Btrfs v0.20-rc1-59-gd00279c-dirty IS EXPERIMENTAL WARNING! - see http://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org before using /dev/sda1 appears to contain an existing filesystem (xfs). Use the -f option to force overwrite. # This does introduce a requirement on libblkid. Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com>

* Btrfs-progs: detect if the disk we are formatting is a ssdJosef Bacik2013-01-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch rebased because of changes in mkfs.c but otherwise the same as created by Josef Bacik SSD's do not gain anything by having metadata DUP turned on. The underlying file system that is a part of all SSD's could easily map duplicate metadat blocks into the same erase block which effectively eliminates the benefit of duplicating the metadata on disk. So detect if we are formatting a single SSD drive and if we are do not use DUP. Thanks, Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <jbacik@fusionio.com> Signed-off-by: Gene Czarcinski <gene@czarc.net>
