Hi guys,

Can you tell me if there are any pitfalls to use Btrfs under Ubuntu 14.04 (Btrfs 3.12). Are there any well known bug that are only fixed later ? Please, send me links just to check if it could hurt or not ..
You should probably install the latest kernel, as otherwise if you report any issue to this list the first thing people will ask you to do is to update.

Follow the instructions here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/GitKernelBuild

It is not hard, but it will take a while. I would allow at least an hour to build a kernel package unless you are on the latest fast hardware. It could also take a long time to git clone the kernel unless your internet conection is fast.

On step 2, I suggest you clone from the stable reposistory instead of Linus's bleeding edge repsitory. The sable clone URL is: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git

Good luck !
