btrfs subvolume list: what is the meaning of "top level"

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

in "btrfs subvolume list" I supposed that "top level" is the subvolume
"father" tree id. But the example below shows that I am wrong.


ghigo@venice:/tmp$ uname -a
Linux venice 3.11.7 #142 SMP Wed Nov 6 19:25:46 CET 2013 x86_64 GNU/Linux
ghigo@venice:/tmp$ sudo mkfs.btrfs /dev/loop0

ghigo@venice:/tmp$ sudo btrfs sub list t/ | nl
     1	ID 256 gen 5 top level 5 path sub1
     2	ID 257 gen 6 top level 5 path dir/sub2
     3	ID 258 gen 8 top level 5 path dir/sub3
     4	ID 259 gen 8 top level 5 path dir/sub3/sub4
     5	ID 260 gen 10 top level 5 path sub5
     6	ID 261 gen 10 top level 5 path sub5/sub6


I expected that in the line 4, the top level should be 258; the same for
the line 6: top level should be 260. So my question is: what is the
meaning of the "top level" value ?

Thanks.
