BTRFS-INSPECT-INTE(8) Btrfs Manual BTRFS-INSPECT-INTE(8)
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
dump-super [options] <device> [device...]
(replaces the standalone tool btrfs-show-super)
Show btrfs superblock information stored on given devices in textual form. By default
the first superblock is printed, more details about all copies or additional backup
data can be printed.
Besides verifictaion of the filesystem signature, there are no other sanity checks.
The superblock checksum status is reported, the device item and filesystem UUIDs are
checked and reported.
Note
the meaning of option -s has changed in version 4.8 to be consistent with other
tools to specify superblock copy rather the offset. The old way still works, but
prints a warning. Please update your scripts to use --bytenr instead. The option
-i has been deprecated.
Options
-f|--full
print full superblock information, including the system chunk array and backup
roots
-a|--all
print information about all present superblock copies (cannot be used together
with -s option)
-i <super>
(deprecated since 4.8, same behaviour as --super)
--bytenr <bytenr>
specify offset to a superblock in a non-standard location at bytenr, useful for
debugging (disables the -f option)
If there are multiple options specified, only the last one applies.
-F|--force
attempt to print the superblock even if thre's no valid BTRFS signature found, the
result may be completely wrong if the data do not resemble a superblock
-s|--super <bytenr>
(see compatibility note above)
specify which mirror to print, valid values are 0, 1 and 2 and the superblock must
be present on the device with a valid signature, can be used together with --force
dump-tree [options] <device>
(replaces the standalone tool btrfs-debug-tree)
Dump tree structures from a given device in textual form, expand keys to human
readable equivalents where possible. This is useful for analyzing filesystem state or
inconsistencies and has a positive educational effect on understanding the internal
filesystem structure.
Note
contains file names, consider that if you're asked to send the dump for analysis.
Does not contain file data.
Options
-e|--extents
print only extent-related information: extent and device trees
-d|--device
print only device-related information: tree root, chunk and device trees
-r|--roots
print only short root node information, ie. the root tree keys
-R|--backups
same as --roots plus print backup root info, ie. the backup root keys and the
respective tree root block offset
-u|--uuid
print only the uuid tree information, empty output if the tree does not exist
-b <block_num>
print info of the specified block only
-t <tree_id>
print only the tree with the specified ID, where the ID can be numerical or common
name in a flexible human readable form
The tree id name recognition rules:
o case does not matter
o the C source definition, eg. BTRFS_ROOT_TREE_OBJECTID
o short forms without BTRFS_ prefix, without _TREE and _OBJECTID suffix, eg.
ROOT_TREE, ROOT
o convenience aliases, eg. DEVICE for the DEV tree, CHECKSUM for CSUM
o unrecognized ID is an error
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
tree-stats [options] <device>
(needs root privileges)
Print sizes and statistics of trees.
Options
-b
Print raw numbers in bytes.
EXIT STATUS
btrfs inspect-internal returns a zero exit status if it succeeds. Non zero is returned in
case of failure.
