Hello all, I've been trying to use btrfs with a very specific purpose during my MSc thesis, and now I would very much appreciate any comments you may have on a given issue.
Currently I'm trying to mask accesses to different snapshots by different processes, while still using the same FS entry point. In a nutshell, a process trying to access /btrfs.mnt/S, instead of actually operating on 'S', will operate on /btrfs.mnt/Sx, with 'x' being the process' pid. I've already accomplished this, simply by implementing a btrfs-specific 'd_hash' on 'btrfs_dentry_operations', which will basically change the path accordingly to the implementation requirements and generate a new hash, thus avoiding dcache conflicts. However, given my yet-recent experience with btrfs, I can only wonder if any of you find any problems with such approach that I might have missed. I would honestly appreciate any input.
