[PATCH] btrfs: correctly escape subvol in btrfs_show_options

From: Johannes Kimmel
Date: Wed Mar 19 2025 - 18:00:04 EST


Currently, displaying the btrfs subvol mount option doesn't escape `,`.
This makes parsing /proc/self/mounts and /proc/self/mountinfo
ambigious for subvolume names that contain commas. The text after the
comma could be mistaken for another option (think "subvol=foo,ro", where
ro is actually part of the subvolumes name).

This patch replaces the manual escape characters list with a call to
seq_show_option. Thanks to Calvin Walton for suggesting this approach.
