Subject: [PATCH v2 0/1] btrfs-progs: optionally restore metadata
Date: Tue, 21 Apr 2015 01:48:40 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5535E4B8.9000909@gmail.com> (raw)

Changes since v1:

* Documented in the manpage
* Added to usage() for btrfs restore
* Made it an optional flag (-m/--restore-metadata)
* Use endian-safe macros to access the on-disk data.
* Restore the proper mtime instead of atime twice.
* Restore owner and mode
* Restore metadata for directories as well as plain files.
* Since it's now explicitly requested, errors are fatal
  unless ignore_errors is requested.

I tested this on the array I'm restoring, it looks sane to me.

Thanks to Noah Massey for the patch review, and Duncan for the
prompt to add owner/permissions to the patch.

Symlinks and hardlinks are beyond the scope of these changes, I'll look
into them if this looks good to everyone.
