Description: python-btrfs is a Python 3 library that provides ways to interact
        programmatically with an online btrfs file system.
        
        It provides a pure python shadow implementation of data structures used in
        btrfs together with convenient wrappers around the collection of kernel
        functions that are available in the btrfs kernel API.
        
        Using them, we can examine the secret inner world of a btrfs file system for
        educational purposes.
        
        The target audience for using the library is system administrators and
        developers who want to discover more about the internals of a btrfs file
        system, or want to create adjusted monitoring or administration tools that are
        optimized for their specific use cases.
        
        python-btrfs does not directly access disk storage, it only uses functions
        available in the kernel interface, using system calls. This also means that
        python-btrfs can not be used to repair a broken filesystem whenever the running
        Linux kernel cannot properly mount it.
