§Send stream: generating an incremental or full send stream from a subvolume

The kernel generates a binary stream representing the contents of a read-only subvolume (or the delta between a parent and child snapshot). The stream is written to a pipe; the caller reads from the other end and writes it to a file or stdout for later consumption by btrfs receive.

Structs§

SendFlags
Flags for the send ioctl.

Functions§

send
Invoke BTRFS_IOC_SEND on the given subvolume.
