Subject: Setting FS_USERNS_MOUNT in btrfs_fs_type.fs_flags
Date: Tue, 16 Sep 2014 23:05:00 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140917030500.GD6185@nixos.hsd1.nh.comcast.net> (raw)

Hi all,

What work would be required to mark btrfs_fs_type with FS_USERNS_MOUNT
so that btrfs images can be mounted by unprivileged users within a user
namespace (along with something like [1])? I'd like to be able to create
disk images without having to start a VM (and --rootdir isn't flexible
enough because I want to make subvolumes).

Cheers,
Shea Levy
