Cgroups are supported for the IO controller, for compressed and uncompressed
|
|
|
|
|
data. This can be used to limit bandwidth or for accounting. The cgroups can
|
|
|
|
|
be configured directly or e.g. via systemd directives *IOAccounting*,
|
|
|
|
|
*IOWeight* etc.

The fs-verity is a support layer that filesystems can hook into to
|
|
|
|
|
support transparent integrity and authenticity protection of read-only
|
|
|
|
|
files. This requires a separate management utility :command:`fsverity`.

Btrfs supports mount with UID/GID mapped according to another namespace since
|
|
|
|
|
version 5.15.

Device mapper, MD-RAID
|
|
|
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Btrfs works on top of device mapper (DM) and linux multi-device software RAID
|
|
|
|
|
(MD-RAID) block devices transparently without any need for additional
|
|
|
|
|
configuration. There is no integration so device failures are not handled
|
|
|
|
|
automatically in any way, must be resolved either in btrfs or on the DM/MD
|
|
|
|
|
layer.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The functionality of DM/MD may duplicate the one provided by btrfs (like
|
|
|
|
|
mirroring), it's possible to use it that way but is probably wasteful and may
|
|
|
|
|
degrade performance. Creating a filesystem on top of the multiplexed device is
|
|
|
|
|
likely the desired way.

Since kernel 4.15 the btrfs filesystem can be used as *lower* filesystem
|
|
|
|
|
for overlayfs (supporting the rename modes of *exchange* and *whiteout*).

NFS is supported. When exporting a subvolume it is recommended to use the
|
|
|
|
|
*fsid* option with a unique id in case the server needs to restart. This
|
|
|
|
|
is recommended namely when clients use the mount option *hard*.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example of server side export:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/mnt/data/subvolume1 192.168.1.2/24(fsid=12345,rw,sync)
|
|
|
|
|
/mnt/data/subvolume2 192.168.1.2/24(fsid=23456,rw,sync)

The Samba VFS module *btrfs* adds support for compression, snapshots and server-side
|
|
|
|
|
copy (backed by reflink/clone range ioctl).
