No particular reason, no. I just haven't used it in maybe 6 years, so I don't remember much about it. I also assume that nobody listening to the discussion on ext3-users uses it either (based on the fact that nobody else asked for it). So it didn't get added. :-) I assume fsck.reiserfs is the right executable to use? (I seem to remember a reiserfsck, but not whether they were equivalent...) What args should be used to get it to check the snapshot FS, preferably making as few changes as possible? (E.g., ext3 requires a pre-check check to clean up orphan inodes, otherwise the real check will exit with a failure status; does reiserfs require anything similar?) I don't remember whether it stores the last-fsck time either; if it does, is there some way to get that out (for try_get_check_date)? Does it support updating that time while an LV is online? What about forcing a check (per-filesystem) on the next reboot? (Any ability to set the last-fsck time would work for both preventing a check and forcing a check, of course.) Google says it can do an external journal; how can you tell whether that's in use (to skip making snapshots of only half the device)?
