This might be a corrupted filesystem.
Can you show ls -l /
If size is ? or permissions then its pretty clear that it is.

Anything in dmesg when you try to access any of these?
Then standard question: Which kernel?
Or try to btrfsck the fs using newest btrfs-tools. Do this with a copy of
the device or make sure that your backup is good before.
Thats so far from a users view. A developer might have some more tricks
for you.
