This patchset adds readonly-snapshots support. You can create a readonly snapshot, and you can also set a snapshot (subvolume also) readonly/writable on the fly.
A few readonly checks are added in setattr, permission, remove_xattr and set_xattr callbacks, as well as in some ioctls. The patchset is also available in: git://repo.or.cz/linux-btrfs-devel.git readonly-snapshots Note: I've changed the async snapshot ABI. So if the patchset is acceptable, the first patch has to be merged into .37 to avoid ABI breakage. --- fs/btrfs/ctree.h | 3 + fs/btrfs/disk-io.c | 36 +++++---- fs/btrfs/inode.c | 8 ++ fs/btrfs/ioctl.c | 193 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--------- fs/btrfs/ioctl.h | 19 ++++- fs/btrfs/transaction.c | 8 ++ fs/btrfs/transaction.h | 1 + fs/btrfs/xattr.c | 18 +++++ 8 files changed, 230 insertions(+), 56 deletions(-) -- 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
