Does btrfs adapt to size changes of underlying block device(s)?

Hello,

I've got a quick question: Does btrfs adapt to size changes of the
underlying block device(s)?

My specific situation is as follows: I've got a luks-volume on which I
want to put btrfs. If this luks-volume grows in the future (i.e. by
'cryptsetup resize'), will btrfs automatically (and reliably) "see" this
and be able to use the additional space?

Of course, one can always put an lvm-layer in between, but I would really
like to avoid this.

And as we're at it: What about shrinking of the underlying block-device?


Thanks for your help,

Simon
