Hi Mathias, I don't think there is active work on this. Additionally to the issues you mentioned above, stat() returns device IDs for BTRFS subvolumes and BTRFS snapshots which are different from the parent BTRFS mount point; e.g. also 'find -fstype btrfs' chokes on this [1]. [1] http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?50859 Therefore, I'm still using EXT4 and XFS on my SLES12 systems. Have a nice day, Berny
