The subvolumes can be freely grouped and accounted further, the particular example are user home directories with snapshots. There is a usecase for containers, where each root could replicate the same subvolume structure and the the accounting can be done per container and/or per group of containers. IMHO there's not much difference code-wise if we allow more than one level of the hierarchy, so it's basically flat vs hierarchical. -- 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
