btrfs supports creating nested subvolumes however snapshots are not
recursive. When a snapshot is taken of a volume which contains a
subvolume the subvolume is replaced with a stub subvolume which has the
same name and uses inode number 2[1]. The stub subvolume kept the
directory name but did not set the time or permissions of the stub
subvolume. This resulted in all time information being the current time
and ownership defaulting to root. When subvolumes and snapshots are
created using unshare this results in a snapshot directory the user
created but has no permissions for.
Test case:
[vmuser@archvm ~]# sudo -i
[root@archvm ~]# mkdir -p /mnt/btrfs/test
[root@archvm ~]# chown vmuser:users /mnt/btrfs/test/
[root@archvm ~]# exit
logout
[vmuser@archvm ~]$ cd /mnt/btrfs/test
[vmuser@archvm test]$ unshare --user --keep-caps --map-auto --map-root-user
[root@archvm test]# btrfs subvolume create subvolume
Create subvolume './subvolume'
[root@archvm test]# btrfs subvolume create subvolume/subsubvolume
Create subvolume 'subvolume/subsubvolume'
[root@archvm test]# btrfs subvolume snapshot subvolume snapshot
Create a snapshot of 'subvolume' in './snapshot'
[root@archvm test]# exit
logout
[vmuser@archvm test]$ tree -ug
[vmuser users ] .
├── [vmuser users ] snapshot
│ └── [vmuser users ] subsubvolume <-- Without patch perm is root:root
└── [vmuser users ] subvolume
└── [vmuser users ] subsubvolume

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
