-S subvolume-name directory
Creates a new subvolume.
-r [+|-]size
Resizes the filesystem with the size specified. If the value is preceded with a signed symbol, the filesystem is resized with
respect to the current filesystem size. size can be suffixed by k,m or g to represent kilobytes, megabytes, or gigabytes respec-
tively.
-A device
Scans the device for btrfs filesystem.
-a Scans all devices present in the system for btrfs filesystem.
-c Forces a filesystem sync.
