2011-05-27 10:21:03 +0200, Andreas Philipp: [...] What do those top-level IDs mean by the way? The top-level ID associated with a subvolume is NOT the ID of this particular subvolume but of the subvolume containing it.

You need those top-level IDs to correctly mount a specific subvolume by name. # mount /dev/dummy -o subvol=subvolume,subvolrootid=top-level ID /mountpoint Of course, you do need them, if you specify the subvolume to mount by its ID.

In my case, on a freshly made btrfs file system, subvolumes have top-level 5. (and neither volume with id 0 or 5 appear in the btrfs sub list). All the top-levels are 5, and I don't even know how to create a subvolume with a different top-level there, so I wonder how that subvol that I had created with btrfs sub snap data snapshots/2011-03-30 ending up being a subvolume with ID 285 that doesn't appear in the btrfs sub list and contains a subvolume of path data in there (with its top-level being 285). All the other subvolumes and snapshots I've created in the exact same way are created with a top-level 5 and have an entry in btrfs sub list and don't have subvolumes of their own. -- Stephane -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe linux-btrfs in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

Is there a way to derive the subvolume ID from the stat(2) st_dev, by the way. # btrfs sub list . ID 256 top level 5 path a ID 257 top level 5 path b # zstat +dev . a b . 27 a 28 b 29 Are the dev numbers allocated in the same order as the subvolids?

strange btrfs sub list output
Hiya, I get a btrfs sub list output that I don't understand: # btrfs sub list /backup/ ID 257 top level 5 path u1/linux/lvm+btrfs/storage/data/data ID 260 top level 5 path u2/linux/lvm/linux/var/data ID 262 top level 5 path u1/linux/lvm+btrfs/storage/data/snapshots/2010-10-11 ID 263 top level 5 path u2/linux/lvm/linux/home/snapshots/2011-04-07 ID 264 top level 5 path u2/linux/lvm/linux/root/snapshots/2011-04-07 ID 265 top level 5 path u2/linux/lvm/linux/var/snapshots/2011-04-07 ID 266 top level 5 path u1/linux/lvm+btrfs/storage/data/snapshots/2010-10-26 ID 267 top level 5 path u1/linux/lvm+btrfs/storage/data/snapshots/2010-11-08 ID 268 top level 5 path u1/linux/lvm+btrfs/storage/data/snapshots/2010-11-22 ID 269 top level 5 path u1/linux/lvm+btrfs/storage/data/snapshots/2010-12-15 ID 270 top level 5 path u2/linux/lvm/linux/home/snapshots/2011-04-14 ID 271 top level 5 path u2/linux/lvm/linux/root/snapshots/2011-04-14 ID 272 top level 5 path u2/linux/lvm/linux/var/snapshots/2011-04-14 ID 273 top level 5 path u1/linux/lvm+btrfs/storage/data/snapshots/2010-12-29 ID 274 top level 5 path u1/linux/lvm+btrfs/storage/data/snapshots/2011-01-26 ID 275 top level 5 path u1/linux/lvm+btrfs/storage/data/snapshots/2011-03-07 ID 276 top level 5 path u1/linux/lvm+btrfs/storage/data/snapshots/2011-04-01 ID 277 top level 5 path u2/linux/lvm/linux/home/data ID 278 top level 5 path u2/linux/lvm/linux/home/snapshots/2011-04-27 ID 279 top level 5 path u2/linux/lvm/linux/root/snapshots/2011-04-27 ID 280 top level 5 path u2/linux/lvm/linux/var/snapshots/2011-04-27 ID 281 top level 5 path u3:10022/vm+xfs@u9/xvda1/g1/v4/data ID 282 top level 5 path u3:10022/vm+xfs@u9/xvda1/g1/v4/snapshots/2011-05-19 ID 283 top level 5 path u5/vm+xfs@u9/xvda1/g1/v5/data ID 284 top level 5 path u6:10022/vm+xfs@u8/xvda1/g8/v3/data ID 286 top level 5 path u5/vm+xfs@u9/xvda1/g1/v5/snapshots/2011-05-24 ID 287 top level 285 path data ID 288 top level 5 path u4/vm+xfs@u9/xvda1/g1/v1/data ID 289 top level 5 path u4/vm+xfs@u9/xvda1/g1/v1/snapshots/2011-03-11 ID 290 top level 5 path u4/vm+xfs@u9/xvda1/g1/v2/data ID 291 top level 5 path u4/vm+xfs@u9/xvda1/g1/v2/snapshots/2011-05-11 ID 292 top level 5 path u4/vm+xfs@u9/xvda1/g1/v1/snapshots/2011-05-11 See ID 287 above. There is no /backup/data directory. There is however a /backup/u6:10022/vm+xfs@u8/xvda1/g8/v3/snapshots/2011-03-30 that contains the same thing as what I get if I mount the fs with subvolid=287. And I did do a btrfs sub snap data snapshots/2011-03/30 there. What could be the cause of that? How to fix it? In case that matters, there used to be more components in the path of u6:10022/vm+xfs@u8/xvda1/g8/v3/data.
