NAME
----
btrfs-inspect-internal - query various internal information
SYNOPSIS
--------
*btrfs inspect-internal* <subcommand> <args>
DESCRIPTION
-----------
This command group provides an interface to query internal information. The
functionality ranges from a simple UI to an ioctl or a more complex query that
assembles the result from several internal structures. The latter usually
requires calls to privileged ioctls.
SUBCOMMAND
----------
*inode-resolve* [-v] <ino> <path>::
(needs root privileges)
+
resolve paths to all files with given inode number 'ino' in a given subvolume
at 'path', ie. all hardlinks
+
`Options`
+
-v::::
verbose mode, print count of returned paths and ioctl() return value
*logical-resolve* [-Pv] [-s <bufsize>] <logical> <path>::
(needs root privileges)
+
resolve paths to all files at given 'logical' address in the linear filesystem space
+
`Options`
+
-P::::
skip the path resolving and print the inodes instead
-v::::
verbose mode, print count of returned paths and all ioctl() return values
-s <bufsize>::::
set internal buffer for storing the file names to 'bufsize', default is 4096, maximum 64k
*min-dev-size* [options] <path>::
(needs root privileges)
+
return the minimum size the device can be shrunk to, without performing any
resize operation, this may be useful before executing the actual resize operation
+
`Options`
+
--id <id>::::
specify the device 'id' to query, default is 1 if this option is not used
*rootid* <path>::
for a given file or directory, return the containing tree root id, for a
subvolume itself return it's own tree id (ie. subvol id)
+
NOTE: The result is undefined for the so-called empty subvolumes (identified by
inode number 2), but such subvolume does not contain any files anyway
*subvolid-resolve* <subvolid> <path>::
(needs root privileges)
+
resolve the absolute path of a the subvolume id 'subvolid'
EXIT STATUS
-----------
*btrfs inspect-internal* returns a zero exit status if it succeeds. Non zero is
returned in case of failure.

------------
*btrfs* is part of btrfs-progs.
