The unprivileged separate listing ioctls are highly requested so I'm looking forward to the feedback round. The usecase coverage should be same what the current 'btrfs subvol list' does, except the complex filtering. The merging target for that shall be 4.18 which should give us enough time to discuss and review the usecase or the ioctl capabilities and data structure formats. -- 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
