Btrfs is a new filesystem with extents, writable snapshotting,
support for multiple devices and many more features.
Btrfs is highly experimental, and THE DISK FORMAT IS NOT YET
FINALIZED. You should say N here unless you are interested in
testing Btrfs with non-critical data.
To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here. The
module will be called btrfs.
If unsure, say N.

POSIX Access Control Lists (ACLs) support permissions for users and
groups beyond the owner/group/world scheme.
To learn more about Access Control Lists, visit the POSIX ACLs for
Linux website <http://acl.bestbits.at/>.
If you don't know what Access Control Lists are, say N
config BTRFS_FS_CHECK_INTEGRITY
bool "Btrfs with integrity check tool compiled in (DANGEROUS)"
depends on BTRFS_FS
help
Adds code that examines all block write requests (including
writes of the super block). The goal is to verify that the
state of the filesystem on disk is always consistent, i.e.,
after a power-loss or kernel panic event the filesystem is
in a consistent state.
If the integrity check tool is included and activated in
the mount options, plenty of kernel memory is used, and
plenty of additional CPU cycles are spent. Enabling this
functionality is not intended for normal use.
In most cases, unless you are a btrfs developer who needs
to verify the integrity of (super)-block write requests
during the run of a regression test, say N
