[PATCH 3/5] btrfs: ioctl: Call btrfs_vol_uevent on subvol creation

From: Marcos Paulo de Souza
Date: Wed Oct 23 2019 - 22:34:51 EST


From: Marcos Paulo de Souza <mpdesouza@xxxxxxxx>

btrfs_vol_uevent will export two environment variables to udev:
BTRFS_VOL_NAME: containing the name of the volume being created
BTRFS_VOL_ADD: will signalize that a subvol was created

One can create a udev rule and check for BTRFS_VOL_ADD being sent,
these values one could detect whenever a subvolume is created, and
take any action based on the subvolume name contained in BTRFS_VOL_NAME.
