Not sure what to do here. The tabular is to have a "friendly" summary of how the filesystem is span on the different disks. I suggest to not add more info in the tabular > >> Finally the last command shows which chunks a disk hosts: >> >> $ sudo ./btrfs device disk-usage /mnt/btrfs1/ >> /dev/vdb 100.00GB >> Data,Single: 8.00MB >> Data,RAID6: 1.00GB >> Metadata,Single: 8.00MB >> Metadata,RAID5: 1.00GB >> System,Single: 4.00MB >> System,RAID5: 4.00MB >> Unallocated: 97.98GB >> >> /dev/vdc 100.00GB >> Data,RAID6: 1.00GB >> Metadata,RAID5: 1.00GB >> System,RAID5: 4.00MB >> Unallocated: 98.00GB >> >> /dev/vdd 100.00GB >> Data,RAID6: 1.00GB >> Metadata,RAID5: 1.00GB >> System,RAID5: 4.00MB >> Unallocated: 98.00GB >> >> /dev/vde 100.00GB >> Data,RAID6: 1.00GB >> Metadata,RAID5: 1.00GB >> System,RAID5: 4.00MB >> Unallocated: 98.00GB > >> More or less are the same information above, only grouped by disk. > > Ie. it's only a variant of the 'filesystem usage' where it is grouped by > blockgroup type. > > Why doesn't 'btrfs device usage' take a device instead of the whole > filesystem? This seems counterintuitive. It should be possible to > ask for a device by it or path. If a device is passed, what you would expect as output: the list of all the devices involved,or only the one(s) passed ? In other terms, the device passed has to act also as filter, or it is only a different way to indicate the path ? > > Also, I'd like to see all useful information about the device: > > * id, path, uuid, ... whatever ok, we can add a "-v" switch to add these further information > * physical device size ok, it is already written > * size visible by the filesystem Could you be more explicit ? a) For each chunk (in each disk) or b) for each disk ? And how this information per disk basis would be useful ? Example (supposing 4 disks) a) /dev/vde 100.00GB Data,RAID6: Disk size: 1.00GB, FS size: 512.00MB Metadata,RAID5: Disk size: 1.00GB, FS size: 750.00MB System,RAID5: Disk size: 4.00MB, FS size; 3.00MB Unallocated: Disk size: 98.00GB b) /dev/vde Disk size: 100.00GB, FS size: 1.28GB Data,RAID6: 1.00GB Metadata,RAID5: 1.00GB System,RAID5: 4.00MB Unallocated: 98.00GB > * space allocated in chunks ok, it is already written > * space actually used See my other comments I am not against to add further information to btrfs dev [disk-]usage, but I liked the idea to add the minimum information to avoid ambiguities: - the number on the left of the device is the device size - the number on the left of the block group is the space allocated on the disk All the number are in terms of disk space. > >> Unfortunately I don't have any information about the chunk usage per disk >> basis. > > And I'm missing it. Is it a fundamental problem or just not addressed in > this patchset? As above, the "used" is a value returned by the ioctl BTRFS_IOC_SPACE_INFO, which returns this value per group-block basis. I don't know how calculates this values per device basis. If you give me some hints on how we can get these information, I can improve the output. > >> Finally I have to point out that the command btrfs fi df previous didn't >> require >> the root capability, now with my patches it is required, because I need >> to know some info about the chunks so I need to use the >> "BTRFS_IOC_TREE_SEARCH". >> >> I think that there are the following possibilities: >> 1) accept this regresssion >> 2) remove the command "btrfs fi df" and leave only "btrfs fi disk-usage" and >> "btrfs dev disk-usage" >> 3) adding a new ioctl which could be used without root capability.

Of course I meant "from my patchset". I would leave the actual "fi df" implementation. Anyway if you are talking about "existing scripts", this means that we cannot touch the actual btrfs fi df at all, but we have to add a another command (btrfs fi free ?) > > Yes for 3), we may also export the information through the existing > ioctls if possible (eg. IOC_FS_INFO). Of course this would be the best. But what if we do "btrfs fi df" in an old kernel ? It is acceptable to fall-back to the old output ? > -- gpg @keyserver.linux.it: Goffredo Baroncelli (kreijackATinwind.it> Key fingerprint BBF5 1610 0B64 DAC6 5F7D 17B2 0EDA 9B37 8B82 E0B5 -- 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
