Lee Trager 94628ad944 btrfs: copy dir permission and time when creating a stub subvolume
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

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.
