Specifically, the btrfs-extent-same.c software is just a wrapper around the ioctl. It never does actual reads of the files or data comparisons, etc. The syntax you describe above seems like it wants an actual "scan these files and dedupe them" which is a whole other ball game. So I would suggest maybe something like the syhntax of btrfs-extent-same.c: btrfs dedupe files len file1 loff1 file2 loff2 ...
