Seed device is a special btrfs with SEEDING super flag set and can only be mounted in read-only mode. Seed devices allow people to create new btrfs on top of it. The new FS contains the same contents as the seed device, but it can be mounted in read-write mode. This patch does the following: 1) split code in btrfs_alloc_chunk into two parts. The first part does makes the newly allocated chunk usable, but does not do any operation that modifies the chunk tree. The second part does the the chunk tree modifications. This division is for the bootstrap step of adding storage to the seed device. 2) Update device management code to handle seed device. The basic idea is: For an FS grown from seed devices, its seed devices are put into a list. Seed devices are opened on demand at mounting time. If any seed device is missing or has been changed, btrfs kernel module will refuse to mount the FS. 3) make btrfs_find_block_group not return NULL when all block groups are read-only.
