I am using btrfs-progs latest git head in gentoo, along with a 2.6.37 k=
ernel.
I am unable to resize the filesystem online (or offline - though that
doesn't seem to be an option).

with brtfs:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------=
----------------------------------------
alipc-gentoo% sudo btrfs filesystem resize +20g ~/.wine/drive_c
Resize '/home/ali/.wine/drive_c' of '+20g'
ERROR: unable to resize '/home/ali/.wine/drive_c'
-----------------------------------------------------------------------=
----------------------------------------

with btrfs-ctl:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------=
----------------------------------------
alipc-gentoo% sudo btrfsctl -r +20g ~/.wine/drive_c
ioctl:: File too large
-----------------------------------------------------------------------=
----------------------------------------

fdisk -l of the the drive that partiion is on (sda9 =3D ~/.wine/drive_c=
):

=46or help in comprehending this, here is an image from gparted:

Apart from the hideous numbering and arrangement - I used gparted, and
made it up gradually, as and when I needed partitions.
In short for sda9, it is a logical partition inside an extended
partion (sda1), and has approximately 85GB of unpartioned space
(inside the extended partition) following it, into which I would like
to resize it.
Thanks.
