Thanks for pointing me all the needed patched, the btrfsctl -l is
working for me fine.

Currently btrfsctl -l show only which directories are
snapshots/subvolumes, it would be nice if it would also show
a hierarchy of snapshots i.e. from which subvolume/snapshot a specific
snapshot was taken from.

For example:

/ # cd /.btrfs
/.btrfs #  btrfsctl -l /.btrfs
   Base path = /.btrfs/
   No.     Tree ID      Subvolume Relative Path
    1          275      rootfs-old/
    2          277      rootfs/
operation complete
Btrfs v0.19-4-gab8fb4c-dirty
/.btrfs # btrfsctl -S subvol0 .
operation complete
Btrfs v0.19-4-gab8fb4c-dirty
/.btrfs #  btrfsctl -l /.btrfs/
   Base path = /.btrfs/
   No.     Tree ID      Subvolume Relative Path
    1          275      rootfs-old/
    2          277      rootfs/
    3          279      subvol0/
operation complete
Btrfs v0.19-4-gab8fb4c-dirty
/.btrfs # btrfsctl -s subvol0-snap subvol0
operation complete
Btrfs v0.19-4-gab8fb4c-dirty
/.btrfs # btrfsctl -s subvol0/subvol1-snap subvol0
operation complete
Btrfs v0.19-4-gab8fb4c-dirty
/.btrfs # btrfsctl -s subvol1-snap-snap subvol0/subvol1-snap
operation complete
Btrfs v0.19-4-gab8fb4c-dirty
/.btrfs #  btrfsctl -l /.btrfs/
   Base path = /.btrfs/
   No.     Tree ID      Subvolume Relative Path
    1          275      rootfs-old/
    2          277      rootfs/
    3          279      subvol0/
    4          281      subvol0/subvol1-snap/
    5          280      subvol0-snap/
    6          282      subvol1-snap-snap/
operation complete
Btrfs v0.19-4-gab8fb4c-dirty
/ .btrfs #                   

It would be nice if it would possible to show the youngest snapshot
ancestor  - something like this:

 /.btrfs #  btrfsctl -l /.btrfs/
   Base path = /.btrfs/
   No.     Tree ID      Subvolume Relative Path       Snapshot Ancestor
    1          275      rootfs-old/                                  none
    2          277      rootfs/                                        
rootfs-old/
    3          279      subvol0/                                      none
    4          281      subvol0/subvol1-snap/                subvol0/
    5          280      subvol0-snap/                              subvol0/
