Hallo, Chris, Du meintest am 19.06.12:

I'm trying to figure out an algorithm from taking an arbitrary mounted btrfs directory and break it down into: <device(s), subvolume, subpath> where, keep in mind, <subpath> may not actually be part of the mount.
Do you want an API for this, or is it enough to wander through /dev/disk style symlinks?
The big reason it isn't here yet is because Kay had this neat patch to blkid and udev to just put all the info you need into /dev/btrfs (or some other suitable location). It would allow you to see which devices belong to which filesystems etc.
"btrfs" should work even without any "udev" installation. Viele Gruesse! Helmut
