Hi all,
this patch adds the command "btrfs filesystem label" to change (or show) the
label of a filesystem.
This patch is a subset of the one written previously by Morey Roof. I
included the user space part only. So it is possible only to change/show a
label of a *single device* and *unounted* filesystem.
The reason of excluding the kernel space part, is to simplify the patch in
order to speed the check and then the merging of the patch itself. In fact I
have to point out that in the past there was almost three attempts to propose
this patch, without success neither complaints.
Chris, let me know how you want to proceed. I know that you are very busy,
and you prefer to work to stabilize btrfs instead adding new feature. But I
think that changing a label is a *essential* feature for a filesystem
managing tool. Think about a mount by LABEL.
To show a label
$ btrfs filesystem label <device>
To set a label
$ btrfs filesystem label <device> <newlabel>
Please guys, give a look to the source.
Comments are welcome.

btrfs-subvol find-new <subvol> <id> will search through a given subvol
and print out all the files with extents newer than a given id.
Care must be taken to make sure any pending delalloc is on disk before
running this because that won't show up in the output.
This goes along with the new space info ioctl. This will spit out the space
info all nice and pretty with the type, it's flags (DUP, RAID) and how much
space is in that group and how much is in use.

This commit introduces a new command called 'btrfs' for managing
a btrfs filesystem. 'btrfs' handles:
- snapshot/subvolume creation
- adding/removal of volume (ie: disk)
- defragment of a tree
- scan of a device searching a btrfs filesystem
- re-balancing of the chunk on the disks
- listing subvolumes and snapshots
This has also been updated to include the new defrag range ioctl.
