Btrfs questions
i am looking at using btrfs for a new project and i have a few questions:

* any plans to support native clustering on Btrfs

Two identical copies of an image mounted result in changes to both images if only one is modified
Hi,
I''ve observed a rather strange behaviour while trying to mount two
identical copies of the same image to different mount points.
Each modification to one image is also performed in the second one.
Example:
dd if=/dev/sda? of=image1 bs=1M
cp image1 image2
mount -o loop image1 m1
mount -o loop image2 m2
touch m2/hello
ls -la m1 //will now also include a file calles "hello"

New btrfs-progs integration branch
I''ve just pushed out a new integration branch to my git repo. This
is purely bugfix patches -- there are no new features in this issue of
the integration branch. I''ve got a stack of about a dozen more patches
with new features in them still to go. I''ll be working on those
tomorrow. As always, there''s minimal testing involved here, but it

swapfile on btrfs, temporary solution for wiki
Hello list, i know what btrfs don''t support swap files.
I read arch wiki and when i reading about systemd addon for auto
create swapfile on btrfs, i invent the way, how create and using swap
file, just see following sh code:
swapfile=$(losetup -f) #free loop device
truncate -s 8G /swap #create 8G sparse swap file
losetup $swapfile /swap #mount file to loop

SDL display of HVMs -- how?
I''m having some trouble working out how to make the SDL interface
for HVM domUs appear. The documentation simply says "it will appear"
when you start the domU, but doesn''t state what packages or libraries
are needed in order for this magic to happen, or explain how to debug
it if it doesn''t happen. All that I''m getting at the moment is a domU

RHEL4 as 64-bit HVM guest -- not starting in 64 bit mode
I''m trying to install RHEL 4 on an HVM (Core 2 Duo). However, when

btrfs balance on single device
Hey all,
Just did a btrfs balance on a single device. Before the balance
operation here is the df result:
inglor@tiamat ~$ btrfs fi df /home
Data: total=19.19GB, used=9.34GB
System, DUP: total=32.00MB, used=4.00KB
Metadata, DUP: total=896.00MB, used=227.98MB
Then I issues a balance operation relocating the chunks across a single device:

Bug in mkfs.btrfs?!
Hi,
I wanted to create a new btrfs fs for my backups.
When trying to mkfs.btrfs for that device, I''m getting
"error checking /dev/loop2 mount status"
With strace I see where the problem is:
lstat("/dev/disk/by-id/ata-INTEL_SSDSA2M160G2GC_CVPO939201JX160AGN-par",
0x7fffa30b3cf0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
The problem is there is something missing

Many questions from a potential btrfs user
Hi.
I am seriously considering employing btrfs on my systems, particularly due
to some space-saving features that it has (namely, deduplication and
compression).
In fact, I was (a few moments ago) trying to back up some of my systems to a
2TB HD that has an ext4 filesystem and, in the middle of the last one, I got
the error message that the backup HD was full.
Given that what I backup there are

How does btrfs behave on checksum mismatch?
I came across the tidbit that ZFS has a contract guarantee that the
data read back will either be correct (the checksum computed over the
data read from the disk matches the checksum stored on disk), or you
get an I/O error. Obviously, this greatly reduces the probability that
the data is invalid. (Particularly when taken in combination with the
disk firmware''s own ECC and checksumming.)

btrfs raid0
How can I verify the read speed of a btrfs raid0 pair in archlinux.?
I assume raid0 means striped activity in a paralleled mode at lease
similar to raid0 in mdadm.
How can I measure the btrfs read speed since it is copy-on-write which
is not the norm in mdadm raid0.?
Perhaps I cannot use the same approach in btrfs to determine the
performance.
Secondly, I see a methodology for raid10 using

check for reflink capability and for shared data
Hi,
how can I do the following in a shell script:
- check whether my file system supports cp --reflink?
- check whether two files share the same data on disk, i.e. one has been
created by cp --reflink of the other?
Thank you!

btrfs over nfs
I have been experimenting exporting btrfs subvolumes over nfs. Main
subvolume is filesys1 mounted at /filesys1. Below this is subvolume
base, user1 is in base and documents is in user1. documents is
mounted at /documents. /etc/exports is:
