David Sterba42046172013-11-20 14:32:34 +010019 Btrfs is a general purpose copy-on-write filesystem with extents,
20 writable snapshotting, support for multiple devices and many more
21 features focused on fault tolerance, repair and easy administration.
Alexey Dobriyan335debe2009-01-22 10:27:30 +030022
David Sterba42046172013-11-20 14:32:34 +010023 The filesystem disk format is no longer unstable, and it's not
24 expected to change unless there are strong reasons to do so. If there
25 is a format change, file systems with a unchanged format will
26 continue to be mountable and usable by newer kernels.

32 module will be called btrfs.

47 bool "Btrfs with integrity check tool compiled in (DANGEROUS)"
48 depends on BTRFS_FS
49 help
50 Adds code that examines all block write requests (including
51 writes of the super block). The goal is to verify that the
52 state of the filesystem on disk is always consistent, i.e.,
53 after a power-loss or kernel panic event the filesystem is
54 in a consistent state.
55
56 If the integrity check tool is included and activated in
57 the mount options, plenty of kernel memory is used, and
58 plenty of additional CPU cycles are spent. Enabling this
59 functionality is not intended for normal use.
60
61 In most cases, unless you are a btrfs developer who needs
62 to verify the integrity of (super)-block write requests

70 code to make sure it is acting as it should. These are mostly
