Long version: IIRC Arne Jansen posted patches for subvolume/qgroup quota support, so it can be used for what you need, up to a certain degree. It's not as complete as zfs (which also supports reservation in addition to quota), and it hasn't reached upstream kernel yet (at least it's not in 3.1-rc9). -- Fajar -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
