I'm having a problem calling the send command in btrfs. Here are the symptoms:

Calling it with sudo works:

sudo btrfs send /path/to/snapshot #works

Calling it without sudo fails:

btrfs send /path/to/snapshot
ERROR: failed to determine mount point for /path/to/snapshot

I'm trying to call this from another program and strangely it gives me a different error. Called from within the program (using exec in go-lang) it gives the following error:

ERROR: can't perform the search -Operation not permitted
ERROR: could not resolve root_id for /path/to/snapshot

I've tried it from within the program with and without sudo and it seems to have the same result. Notice this is being run inside of docker.
