This version of union mounts adds support for more than one read-only
layer and submounts in the read-only layers. It replaces the clumsy
array of vfsmounts in the topmost superblock with a pointer to the
root of a cloned vfsmount tree of all the read-only mounts to be
unioned.
This branch is named "submounts" and is in the usual git tree:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/val/linux-2.6.git
FYI, I'll be on vacation for the next two weeks and not reading email.

do_whiteout() allows removal of a directory when it has whiteouts but
is logically empty.
XXX - This patch abuses readdir() to check if the union directory is
logically empty - that is, all the entries are whiteouts (or "." or
".."). Currently, we have no clean VFS interface to ask the lower
file system if a directory is empty.
Fixes:
- Add ->is_directory_empty() op
- Add is_directory_empty flag to dentry (ugly dcache populate)
- Ask underlying fs to remove it and look for an error return
- (your idea here)

From: Jan Blunck <[email protected]>
This patch adds whiteout support to EXT2. A whiteout is an empty directory
entry (inode == 0) with the file type set to EXT2_FT_WHT. Therefore it
allocates space in directories. Due to being implemented as a filetype it is
necessary to have the EXT2_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_FILETYPE flag set.
XXX - Needs serious review. Al wonders: What happens with a delete at
the beginning of a block? Will we find the matching dentry or the
first empty space?

Add support for fallthru directory entries to ext2.
XXX What to do for d_ino for fallthrus? If we return the inode from
the the underlying file system, it comes from a different inode
"namespace" and that will produce spurious matches. This argues for
implementation of fallthrus as symlinks because they have to allocate
an inode (and inode number) anyway, and we can later reuse it if we
copy the file up.

1.6.3.3
This patch adds the basic structures and operations of VFS-based union
mounts (but not the ability to mount or lookup unioned file systems).
Each directory in a unioned file system has an associated union stack
created when the directory is first looked up. The union stack is a
union_dir structure kept in a hash table indexed by mount and dentry
of the directory; thus, specific paths are unioned, not dentries
alone. The union_dir keeps a pointer to the upper path and the lower
path and can be looked up by either path. Currently only two layers
are supported, but the union_dir struct is flexible enough to allow
more than two layers.
This particular version of union mounts is based on ideas by Jan
Blunck, Bharata Rao, and many others.

1.6.3.3
Implement unioned directories, whiteouts, and fallthrus in pathname
lookup routines. do_lookup() and lookup_hash() call lookup_union()
after looking up the dentry from the top-level file system.
lookup_union() is centered around __lookup_hash(), which does cached
and/or real lookups and revalidates each dentry in the union stack.
XXX - implement negative union cache entries
XXX - What about different permissions on different layers on the same
directory name? Should complain, fail, test permissions on all
layers, what?

Create and tear down union mount structures on mount. Check
requirements for union mounts. This version clones the read-only
mounts as one big tree and points to them from the superblock.

+ * it must not be part of any mount event propagation group - i.e.,
+ * shared or slave.
+ *
+ * Union only at roots of file systems: Only permit unioning of file
+ * systems at their root directories. This allows us to mark entire
+ * mounts as unioned. Otherwise we must slowly and expensively work

must be copied up to the topmost read-write layer. This patch creates
union_copyup() and its supporting routines.
Thanks to Valdis Kletnieks for a bug fix.

1.6.3.3
For union mounts, a file located on the lower layer will incorrectly
return EROFS on an access check. To fix this, use the new
path_permission() call, which ignores a read-only lower layer file
system if the target will be copied up to the topmost file system.

On rename() of a file on union mount, copyup and whiteout the source
file. Both are done under the rename mutex. I believe this is
actually atomic.
XXX - May not need to do file copyup under the lock.

readdir() in union mounts is implemented by copying up all visible
directory entries from the lower level directories to the topmost
directory. Directory entries that refer to lower level file system
objects are marked as "fallthru" in the topmost directory.

1.6.3.3
Proof-of-concept implementation of user_path_nd(). Lookup both the
parent and the target of a user-supplied filename, to supply later to
union copyup routines.
XXX - Inefficient, racy, gets the parent of the symlink instead of the
parent of the target. Al Viro would like to see something more like
this:
user_path_mumble() looks up and returns:
parent nameidata
positive topmost dentry of target
negative dentry of target from the topmost layer (if it doesn't exist on top)
Both the positive lower dentry and negative topmost dentry are passed
to the following code, like do_chown(). The tests for permissions and
such-like are performed on the positive lower dentry. When it comes
time to actually modify the target, we call union_copyup() with both
positive and negative dentries (and the parent nameidata).

1.6.3.3
Split inode_permission() into inode and file-system-dependent parts.
Create path_permission() to check permission based on the path to the
inode. This is for union mounts, in which an inode can be located on
a read-only lower layer file system but is still writable, since we
will copy it up to the writable top layer file system. So in that
case, we want to ignore MS_RDONLY on the lower layer. To make this
decision, we must know the path (vfsmount, dentry) of both the target
and its parent.
XXX - so ugly!

+Union mounts (a.k.a. writable overlays)
+=======================================
+
+This document describes the architecture and current status of union
+mounts, also known as writable overlays.
+
+In this document:
+ - Overview of union mounts
+ - Terminology
+ - VFS implementation
+ - Locking strategy
+ - VFS/file system interface
+ - Userland interface
+ - NFS interaction
+ - Status
+ - Contributing to union mounts
+
+Overview
+========
+
+A union mount layers one read-write file system over one or more
+read-only file systems, with all writes going to the writable file
+system. The namespace of both file systems appears as a combined
+whole to userland, with files and directories on the writable file
+system covering up any files or directories with matching pathnames on
+the read-only file system. The read-write file system is the
+"topmost" or "upper" file system and the read-only file systems are
+the "lower" file systems. A few use cases:
+
+- Root file system on CD with writes saved to hard drive (LiveCD)
+- Multiple virtual machines with the same starting root file system
+- Cluster with NFS mounted root on clients
+
+Most if not all of these problems could be solved with a COW block
+device or a clustered file system (include NFS mounts). However, for
+some use cases, sharing is more efficient and better performing if
+done at the file system namespace level. COW block devices only
+increase their divergence as time goes on, and a fully coherent
+writable file system is unnecessary synchronization overhead if no
+other client needs to see the writes.
+
+What union mounts are not
+-------------------------
+
+Union mounts are not a general-purpose unioning file system. They do
+not provide a generic "union of namespaces" operation for an arbitrary
+number of file systems. Many interesting features can be implemented
+with a generic unioning facility: dynamic insertion and removal of
+branches, write policies based on space available, online upgrade,
+etc. Some unioning file systems that do this are UnionFS and AUFS.
+
+Terminology
+===========
+
+The main physical metaphor for union mounts is that a writable file
+system is mounted "on top" of a read-only file system. Lookups start
+at the "topmost" read-write file system and travel "down" to the
+"bottom" read-only file system only if no blocking entry exists on the
+top layer.
+
+Topmost layer: The read-write file system. Lookups begin here.
+
+Bottom layer: The read-only file system. Lookups end here.
+
+Path: Combination of the vfsmount and dentry structure.
+
+Follow down: Given a path from the top layer, find the corresponding
+path on the bottom layer.
+
+Follow up: Given a path from the bottom layer, find the corresponding
+path on the top layer.
+
+Whiteout: A directory entry in the top layer that prevents lookups
+from travelling down to the bottom layer. Created on unlink()/rmdir()
+if a corresponding directory entry exists in the bottom layer.
+
+Opaque flag: A flag on a directory in the top layer that prevents
+lookups of entries in this directory from travelling down to the
+bottom layer (unless there is an explicit fallthru entry allowing that
+for a particular entry). Set on creation of a directory that replaces
+a whiteout, and after a directory copyup.
+
+Fallthru: A directory entry which allows lookups to "fall through" to
+the bottom layer for that exact directory entry. This serves as a
+placeholder for directory entries from the bottom layer during
+readdir(). Fallthrus override opaque flags.
+
+File copyup: Create a file on the top layer that has the same metadata
+and contents as the file with the same pathname on the bottom layer.
+
+Directory copyup: Copy up the visible directory entries from the
+bottom layer as fallthrus in the matching top layer directory. Mark
+the directory opaque to avoid unnecessary negative lookups on the
+bottom layer.
+
+Examples
+========
+
+What happens when I...
+
+- creat() /newfile -> creates on topmost layer
+- unlink() /oldfile -> creates a whiteout on topmost layer
+- Edit /existingfile -> copies up to top layer at open(O_WR) time
+- truncate /existingfile -> copies up to topmost layer + N bytes if specified
+- touch()/chmod()/chown()/etc. -> copies up to topmost layer
+- mkdir() /newdir -> creates on topmost layer
+- rmdir() /olddir -> creates a whiteout on topmost layer
+- mkdir() /olddir after above -> creates on topmost layer w/ opaque flag
+- readdir() /shareddir -> copies up entries from bottom layer as fallthrus
+- link() /oldfile /newlink -> copies up /oldfile, creates /newlink on topmost layer
+- symlink() /oldfile /symlink -> nothing special
+- rename() /oldfile /newfile -> copies up /oldfile to /newfile on top layer
+- rename() /olddir /newdir -> EXDEV
+- rename() /topmost_only_dir /topmost_only_dir2 -> success
+
+Getting to a root file system with union mounts:
+
+- Mount the base read-only file system as the root file system
+- Mount the read-only file system again on /newroot
+- Mount the read-write layer on /newroot:
+ # mount -o union /dev/sda /newroot
+- pivot_root to /newroot
+- Start init
+

+
+VFS implementation
+==================
+
+Union mounts are implemented as an integral part of the VFS, rather
+than as a VFS client file system (i.e., a stacked file system like
+unionfs or ecryptfs). Implementing unioning inside the VFS eliminates
+the need for duplicate copies of VFS data structures, unnecessary
+indirection, and code duplication, but requires very maintainable,
+low-to-zero overhead code. Union mounts require no change to file
+systems serving as the read-only layer, and requires some minor
+support from file systems serving as the read-write layer. File
+systems that want to be the writable layer must implement the new
+->whiteout() and ->fallthru() inode operations, which create special
+dummy directory entries.
+
+The union mounts code must accomplish the following major tasks:
+
+1) Pass lookups through to the lower level file system.
+2) Copy files and directories up to the topmost layer when written.
+3) Create whiteouts and fallthrus as necessary.
+
+VFS objects and union mounts
+----------------------------
+
+First, some VFS basics:
+
+The VFS allows multiple mounts of the same file system. For example,
+/dev/sda can be mounted at /usr and also at /mnt. The same file
+system can be mounted read-only at one point and read-write at
+another. Each of these mounts has its own vfsmount data structure in
+the kernel. However, each underlying file system has exactly one
+in-kernel superblock structure no matter how many times it is mounted.
+All the separate vfsmounts for the same file system reference the same
+superblock data structure.
+
+Directory entries are cached by the VFS in dentry structures. The VFS
+keeps one dentry structure for each file or directory in a file
+system, no matter how many times it is mounted. Each dentry
+represents only one element of a path name. When the VFS looks up a
+pathname (e.g., "/sbin/init"), the result is combination of vfsmount
+and dentry. This <mnt,dentry> pair is usually stored in a kernel
+structure named "path", which is simply two pointers, one to the
+vfsmount and one to the dentry. A "struct path" is this structure; a
+pathname is a string like "/etc/fstab".
+
+In union mounts, a file system can only be the topmost layer for one
+union mount. A file system can be part of multiple union mounts if it
+is a read-only layer. So dentries in the read-only layers can be part
+of multiple unions, while a dentry in the read-write layer can only be
+part of one unin.
+
+union_dir structure
+---------------------
+
+The first job of union mounts is to map directories from the topmost
+layer to directories with the same pathname in the lower layer. That
+is, given the <mnt,dentry> pair for a directory pathname in the
+topmost layer, we need to find all the <mnt,dentry> pairs for the
+directory with the same pathname in the lower layer. We do this with
+a singly linked list rooted in the dentry from the topmost layer. The
+linked list is the union_dir structure:
+
+/*
+ * The union_dir structure. Basically just a singly-linked list with
+ * a pointer to the referenced dentry, whose head is d_union_dir in
+ * the dentry of the topmost directory. We can't link this list
+ * purely through list elements in the dentry because lower layer
+ * dentries can be part of multiple union stacks. However, the
+ * topmost dentry is only part of one union stack. So we point at the
+ * lower layer dentries through a linked list rooted in the topmost
+ * dentry.
+ */
+struct union_dir {
+ struct path u_this; /* this is me */
+ struct union_dir *u_lower; /* this is what I overlay */
+};
+
+This structure is flexible enough to support an arbitrary number of
+layers of unioned file systems. (The current code is tested only with
+two layers but should allow more layers.) Since there can be more than
+two layers, this section will talk about mapping "upper" directories
+to "lower" directories, instead of "topmost" directories to "bottom"
+directories.
+
+At the time of a union mount, we allocate a union_dir structure to link
+the root directory of the upper layer to the root directory of the
+lower layer and put the pointer to it in the d_union_dir field of
+struct dentry:
+
+struct dentry {
+[...]
+#ifdef CONFIG_UNION_MOUNT
+ struct union_dir *d_union_dir; /* head of union stack */
+#endif
+
+
+Traversing the union stack
+--------------------------
+
+The set of union_dir structures referring to a particular pathname are
+called collectively the union stack for that directory. Only lookup
+needs to traverse the union stack - walk down the list of paths
+beginning with the topmost. This is open-coded:
+
+static int __lookup_union(struct nameidata *nd, struct qstr *name,
+ struct path *topmost)
+{
+[...]
+ /* new_ud is the tail of the list of union dirs for this dentry */
+ struct union_dir **next_ud = &topmost->dentry->d_union_dir;
+[...]
+ /* Go through each dir underlying the parent, looking for a match */
+ for (ud = nd->path.dentry->d_union_dir; ud != NULL; ud = ud->u_lower) {
+[...]
+ next_ud = &(*next_ud)->u_lower;
+ }
+}
+
+Code paths
+----------
+
+Union mounts modify the following key code paths in the VFS:
+
+- mount()/umount()
+- Pathname lookup
+- Any path that modifies an existing file
+
+Mount
+-----
+
+Union mounts are created in two steps:
+
+1. Mount the read-only layer file systems read-only in the usual
+manner, all on the same mountpoint. Submounts are permitted as long
+as they are also read-only and not shared (part of a mount propagation
+group).
+
+2. Mount the top layer with the "-o union" option at the same
+mountpoint. All read-only file systems mounted at this mountpoint
+will be included in the union mount.
+
+The bottom layers must be read-only and the top layer must be
+read-write and support whiteouts and fallthrus. A file system that
+supports whiteouts and fallthrus indicates this by setting the
+MS_WHITEOUT flag in the superblock. Currently, the top layer is
+forced to "noatime" to avoid a copyup on every access of a file.
+Supporting atime with the current infrastructure would require a
+copyup on every open(). The "relatime" option would be equally
+efficient if the atime is the same or more recent than the mtime/ctime
+for every object on the read-only file system, and if the 24-hour
+timeout on relatime was disabled. However, this is probably not
+worthwhile for the majority of union mount use cases.
+
+File systems can only be union mounted at their root directories.
+Without this restriction, some VFS operations must always do a
+union_lookup() - requiring a global lock - in order to find out if a
+path is potentially unioned. With this restriction, we can tell if a
+path is potentially unioned by checking a flag in the vfsmount.
+
+pivot_root() to a union mounted file system is supported. The
+recommended way to get to a union mounted root file system is to boot
+with the read-only mount as the root file system, construct the union
+mount on an entirely new mount, and pivot_root() to the new union
+mount root. Attempting to union mount the root file system later in
+boot will result in covering other file systems, e.g., /proc, which
+isn't permitted in the current code and is a bad idea anyway.
+
+Hard read-only file systems
+---------------------------
+
+Union mounts require the lower layer of the file system to be
+read-only. However, in Linux, any individual file system may be
+mounted at multiple places in the namespace, and a file system can be
+changed from read-only to read-write while still mounted. Thus, simply
+checking that the bottom layer is read-only at the time the writable
+overlay is mounted over it is pointless, since at any time the bottom
+layer may become read-write.
+
+We have to guarantee that a file system will be read-only for as long
+as it is the bottom layer of a union mount. To do this, we track the
+number of hard read-only users of a file system in its VFS superblock
+structure. When we union mount a writable overlay over a file system,
+we increment its read-only user count. The file system can only be
+mounted read-write if its read-only users count is zero.
+
+Todo:
+
+- Support hard read-only NFS mounts. See discussion here:
+
+ http://markmail.org/message/3mkgnvo4pswxd7lp
+
+Pathname lookup
+---------------
+
+Pathname lookup in a unioned directory traverses down the union stack
+for the parent directory, looking up each pathname element in each
+layer of the file system (according to the rules of whiteouts,
+fallthrus, and opaque flags). At mount time, the union stack for the
+root directory of the file system is created, and the union stack
+creation for every other unioned directory in the file system is
+boot-strapped using the already-existing union stack of the
+directory's parent. In order to simplify the code greatly, every
+visible directory on the lower file system is required to have a
+matching directory on the upper file system. This matching directory
+is created during pathname lookup if does not already exist.
+Therefore, each unioned directory is the child of another unioned
+directory (or is the root directory of the file system).
+
+The actual union lookup function is called in the following code
+paths:
+
+do_lookup()->do_union_lookup()->lookup_union()->__lookup_union()
+lookup_hash()->lookup_union()->__lookup_union()
+
+__lookup_union() is where the rules of whiteouts, fallthrus, and
+opaque flags are actually implemented. __lookup_union() returns
+either the first visible dentry, or a negative dentry from the topmost
+file system if no matching dentry exists. If it finds a directory, it
+looks up any potential matching lower layer directories. If it finds
+a lower layer directory, it first creates the topmost dir if necessary
+via union_create_topmost_dir(), and then calls union_add_dir() to
+append the lower directory to the end of the union stack.
+
+Note that not all directories in a union mount are unioned, only those
+with matching directories on the lower layer. The macro
+IS_DIR_UNIONED() is a cheap, constant time way to check if a directory
+is unioned, while IS_MNT_UNION() checks if the entire mount is unioned
+(and therefore whether the directory in question is potentially
+unioned).
+
+Currently, lookup of a negative dentry in a unioned directory requires
+a lookup in every directory in the union stack every time it is looked
+up. We could avoid subsequent lookups by adding a negative union
+cache entry, exactly the way negative dentries are cached.
+
+File copyup
+-----------
+
+Any system call that alters the data or metadata of a file on the
+bottom layer, or creates or changes a hard link to it will trigger a
+copyup of the target file from the lower layer to the topmost layer
+
+ - open(O_WRITE | O_RDWR | O_APPEND)
+ - truncate()/open(O_TRUNC)
+ - link()
+ - rename()
+ - chmod()
+ - chown()/lchown()
+ - utimes()
+ - setxattr()/lsetxattr()
+
+Copyup of a file due to open(O_WRITE) has already occurred when:
+
+ - write()
+ - ftruncate()
+ - writable mmap()
+
+The following system calls will fail on an fd opened O_RDONLY:
+
+ - fchmod()
+ - fchown()
+ - fsetxattr()
+ - futimensat()
+
+Contrary to common sense, the above system calls are defined to
+succeed on O_RDONLY fds. The idea seems to be that the
+O_RDONLY/O_RDWR/O_WRITE flags only apply to the actual file data, not
+to any form of metadata (times, owner, mode, or even extended
+attributes). Applications making these system calls on O_RDONLY fds
+are correct according to the standard and work on non-union-mounts.
+They will need to be rewritten (O_RDONLY -> O_RDWR) to work on union
+mounts. We suspect this usage is uncommon.
+
+This deviation from standard is due to technical limitations of the
+union mount implementation. Specifically, we would need to replace an
+open file descriptor from the lower layer with an open file descriptor
+for a file with matching pathname and contents on the upper layer,
+which is difficult to do. We avoid this in other system calls by
+doing the copyup before the file is opened. Unionfs doesn't encounter
+this problem because it creates a dummy file struct which redirects or
+fans out operations to the struct files for the underlying file
+systems.
+
+From an application's point of view, the result of an in-kernel file
+copyup is the logical equivalent of another application updating the
+file via the rename() pattern: creat() a new file, copy the data over,
+make changes the copy, and rename() over the old version. Any
+existing open file descriptors for that file (including those in the
+same application) refer to a now invisible object that used to have
+the same pathname. Only opens that occur after the copyup will see
+updates to the file.
+
+Permission checks
+-----------------
+
+We want to be sure we have the correct permissions to actually succeed
+in a system call before copying a file up to avoid unnecessary IO. At
+present, the permission check for a single system call may be spread
+out over many hundreds of lines of code (e.g., open()). In order to
+check permissions, we occasionally need to determine if there is a
+writable overlay on top of this inode. This requires a full path, but
+often we only have the inode at this point. In particular,
+inode_permission() returns EROFS if the inode is on a read-only file
+system, which is the wrong answer if there is a writable overlay
+mounted on top of it.
+
+The current solution is to split out the file-system-wide permission
+checks from the per-inode permission checks. inode_permission()
+becomes:
+
+sb_permission()
+__inode_permission()
+
+inode_permission() calls sb_permission() and __inode_permission() on
+the same path. We create path_permission() which calls
+sb_permission() on the parent directory from the top layer, and
+__inode_permission() on the target on the lower layer. This gets us
+the correct write permissions consdering that the file will be copied
+up.
+
+Todo:
+
+ - Currently, we don't deal with differing directory permissions at
+ different levels of the stack. This is a bug.
+
+Impact on non-union kernels and mounts
+--------------------------------------
+
+Union-related data structures, extra fields, and function calls are
+#ifdef'd out at the function/macro level with CONFIG_UNION_MOUNT in
+nearly all cases (see fs/union.h).
+
+Todo:
+
+ - Do performance tests
+
+Locking strategy
+================
+
+The current union mount locking strategy is based on the following
+rules:
+
+* The lower layer file system is always read-only
+* The topmost file system is always read-write
+ => A file system can never a topmost and lower layer at the same time
+
+Additionally, the topmost layer may only be mounted exactly once.
+Don't think of the topmost layer as a separate independent file
+system; when it is part of a union mount, it is only a file system in
+conjunction with the read-only bottom layer. The read-only bottom
+layer is an independent file system in and of itself and can be
+mounted elsewhere, including as the bottom layer for another union
+mount.
+
+Thus, we may define a stable locking order in terms of top layer and
+bottom layer locks, since a top layer is never a bottom layer and a
+bottom layer is never a top layer. Another simplifying assumption is
+that all directories in a pathname exist on the top layer, as they are
+created step-by-step during lookup. This prevents us from ever having
+to walk backwards up the path creating directory entries, which can
+get complicated. By implication, parent directories paths during any
+operation (rename(), unlink(),etc.) are from the top layer. Dentries
+for directories from the bottom layer are only ever seen or used by
+the lookup code.
+
+The two major problems we avoid with the above rules are:
+
+Lock ordering: Imagine two union stacks with the same two file
+systems: A mounted over B, and B mounted over A. Sometimes locks on
+objects in both A and B will have to be held simultanously. What
+order should they be acquired in? Simply acquiring them from top to
+bottom will create a lock-ordering problem - one thread acquires lock
+on object from A and then tries for a lock on object from B, while
+another thread grabs the lock on object from B and then waits for the
+lock on object from A. Some other lock ordering must be defined.
+
+Movement/change/disappearance of objects on multiple layers: A variety
+of nasty corner cases arise when more than one layer is changing at
+the same time. Changes in the directory topology and their effect on
+inheritance are of special concern. Al Viro's canonical email on the
+subject:
+
+http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0802.0/0839.html
+
+We don't try to solve any of these cases, just avoid them in the first
+place.
+
+Todo: Prevent top layer from being mounted more than once.
+
+Cross-layer interactions
+------------------------
+
+The VFS code simultaneously holds references to and/or modifies
+objects from both the top and bottom layers in the following cases:
+
+Path lookup:
+
+Grabs i_mutex on bottom layer while holding i_mutex on top layer
+directory inode.
+
+File copyup:
+
+Holds i_mutex on the parent directory from the top layer while copying
+up file from lower layer.
+
+link():
+
+File copyup of target while holding i_mutex on parent directory on top
+layer. Followed by a normal link() operation.
+
+rename():
+
+Holds s_vfs_rename_mutex on the top layer, i_mutex of the source's
+parent dir (top layer), and i_mutex of the target's parent dir (also
+top layer) while looking up and copying the bottom layer target and
+also creating the whiteout.
+
+Notes on rename():
+
+First, renaming of directories returns EXDEV. It's not at all
+reasonable to recursively copy directory trees and userspace has to
+handle this case anyway. An exception is rename() of directories that
+exist only on the topmost layer; this succeeds.
+
+Rename involves three steps on a union mount: (1) copyup of the file
+from the bottom layer, (2) rename of the new top-layer copy to the
+target in the usual manner, (3) creation of a whiteout covering the
+source of the rename.
+
+Directory copyup:
+
+Directory entries are copied up on the first readdir(). We hold the
+top layer directory i_mutex throughout and sequentially acquire and
+drop the i_mutex for each lower layer directory.
+
+VFS-fs interface
+================
+
+Read-only layer: No support necessary other than enforcement of really
+really read-only semantics (done by VFS for local file systems).
+
+Writable layer: Must implement two new inode operations:
+
+int (*whiteout) (struct inode *, struct dentry *, struct dentry *);
+int (*fallthru) (struct inode *, struct dentry *);
+
+And set the MS_WHITEOUT flag to indicate support of these operations.
+
+Todo:
+
+- Return inode of underlying file in d_ino in readdir()
+- Implement whiteouts and fallthrus in ext3
+- Implement whiteouts and fallthrus in btrfs
+
+Supported file systems
+----------------------
+
+Any file system can be a read-only layer. File systems must
+explicitly support whiteouts and fallthrus in order to be a read-write
+layer. This patch set implements whiteouts for ext2, tmpfs, and
+jffs2. We have tested ext2, tmpfs, and iso9660 as the read-only
+layer.
+
+Todo:
+ - Test corner cases of case-insensitive/oversensitive file systems
+
+NFS interaction
+===============
+
+NFS is currently not supported as either type of layer. NFS as
+read-only layer requires support from the server to honor the
+read-only guarantee needed for the bottom layer. To do this, the
+server needs to revoke access to clients requesting read-only file
+systems if the exported file system is remounted read-write or
+unmounted (during which arbitrary changes can occur). Some recent
+discussion:
+
+http://markmail.org/message/3mkgnvo4pswxd7lp
+
+NFS as the read-write layer would require implementation of the
+->whiteout() and ->fallthru() methods. DT_WHT directory entries are
+theoretically already supported.
+
+Also, technically the requirement for a readdir() cookie that is
+stable across reboots comes only from file systems exported via NFSv2:
+
+http://oss.oracle.com/pipermail/btrfs-devel/2008-January/000463.html
+
+Todo:
+
+- Guarantee really really read-only on NFS exports
+- Implement whiteout()/fallthru() for NFS
+
+Userland support
+================
+
+The mount command must support the "-o union" mount option and pass
+the corresponding MS_UNION flag to the kerel. A util-linux git
+tree with union mount support is here:
+
+git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/util-linux-ng/val/util-linux-ng.git
+
+File system utilities must support whiteouts and fallthrus. An
+e2fsprogs git tree with union mount support is here:
+
+git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/ext2/val/e2fsprogs.git
+
+Currently, whiteout directory entries are not returned to userland.
+While the directory type for whiteouts, DT_WHT, has been defined for
+many years, very little userland code handles them. Userland will
+never see fallthru directory entries.
+
+Known non-POSIX behaviors
+-------------------------
+
+- Any writing system call (unlink()/chmod()/etc.) can return ENOSPC or EIO
+
+ Most programs are not tested and don't work well under conditions of
+ ENOSPC. The solution is to add more disk space.
+
+- Link count may be wrong for files on bottom layer with > 1 link count
+
+ A file may have more than one hard link to it. When a file with
+ multiple hard links is copied up, any other hard links pointing to
+ the same inode will remain unchanged. If the file is looked up via
+ one of the hard links on the read-only layer, it will have the
+ original link count (which is off by one at this point). An
+ example:
+
+ /bin/link1 -> inode 100
+ /etc/link2 -> inode 100
+
+ inode 100 will have link count 2.
+
+ # echo "blah" > /bin/link1
+
+ Now /bin/link1 will be copied up to the topmost layer. But
+ /etc/link2 will still point to the original inode 100, and its link
+ count will still be 2.
+
+- Link count on directories will be wrong before readdir() (fixable)
+- File copyup is the logical equivalent of an update via copy +
+ rename(). Any existing open file descriptors will continue to refer
+ to the read-only copy on the bottom layer and will not see any
+ changes that occur after the copy-up.
+- rename() of directory may fail with EXDEV
+- inode number in d_ino of struct dirent will be wrong for fallthrus
+- fchmod()/fchown()/futimensat()/fsetattr() fail on O_RDONLY fds
+
+Status
+======
+
+The current union mounts implementation is feature-complete on local
+file systems and passes an extensive union mounts test suite,
+available in the union mounts Usermode Linux-based development kit:
+
+http://valerieaurora.org/union/union_mount_devkit.tar.gz
+
+The whiteout code has had some non-trivial level of review and
+testing, but the much the code has had no external review or testing
+outside the authors' machines.
+
+The latest version is available at:
+
+git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/val/linux-2.6.git
+
+Check the union mounts web page for the name of the latest branch:
+
+http://valerieaurora.org/union/
+
+Todo:
+
+- Run more tests (e.g., XFS test suite)
+- Get review from VFS maintainers
+
+Non-features
+------------
+
+Features we do not currently plan to support in union mounts:
+
+Online upgrade: E.g., installing software on a file system NFS
+exported to clients while the clients are still up and running.
+Allowing the read-only bottom layer of a union mount to change
+invalidates our locking strategy.
+
+Recursive copying of directories: E.g., implementing rename() across
+layers for directories. Doing an in-kernel copy of a single file is
+bad enough. Recursively copying a directory is a big no-no.
+
+Read-only top layer: The readdir() strategy fundamentally requires the
+ability to create persistent directory entries on the top layer file
+system (which may be tmpfs). Numerous alternatives (including
+in-kernel or in-application caching) exist and are compatible with
+union mounts with its writing-readdir() implementation disabled.
+Creating a readdir() cookie that is stable across multiple readdir()s
+requires one of:
+
+- Write to stable storage (e.g., fallthru dentries)
+- Non-evictable kernel memory cache (doesn't handle NFS server reboot)
+- Per-application caching by glibc readdir()
+
+Often these features are supported by other unioning file systems or
+by other versions of union mounts.

1.6.3.3
From: Jan Blunck <[email protected]>
Add support for whiteout dentries to tmpfs. This includes adding
support for whiteouts to d_genocide(), which is called to tear down
pinned tmpfs dentries. Whiteouts have to be persistent, so they have
a pinning extra ref count that needs to be dropped by d_genocide().

1.6.3.3
From: Jan Blunck <[email protected]>
XXX - This is broken and included just to make union mounts work. See
discussion at:
http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-fsdevel/2010/1/15/6708053/thread
Original commit message:
This is a bugfix/replacement for commit
051d381259eb57d6074d02a6ba6e90e744f1a29f:
During a path walk if an autofs trigger is mounted on a dentry,
when the follow_link method is called, the nameidata struct
contains the vfsmount and mountpoint dentry of the parent mount
while the dentry that is passed in is the root of the autofs
trigger mount. I believe it is impossible to get the vfsmount of
the trigger mount, within the follow_link method, when only the
parent vfsmount and the root dentry of the trigger mount are
known.
The solution in this commit was to replace the path embedded in the
parent's nameidata with the path of the link itself in
__do_follow_link(). This is a relatively harmless misuse of the
field, but union mounts ran into a bug during follow_link() caused by
the nameidata containing the wrong path (we count on it being what it
is all other places - the path of the parent).
A cleaner and easier to understand solution is to save the necessary
vfsmount in the autofs superblock info when it is mounted. Then we
can easily update the vfsmount in autofs4_follow_link().

1.6.3.3
While we can check if a file system is currently read-only, we can't
guarantee that it will stay read-only. The file system can be
remounted read-write at any time; it's also conceivable that a file
system can be mounted a second time and converted to read-write if the
underlying fs allows it. This is a problem for union mounts, which
require the underlying file system be read-only. Add a read-only
users count and don't allow remounts to change the file system to
read-write or read-write mounts if there are any read-only users.

In case of an union directory we don't want that the directories on lower
layers of the union "show through". So to prevent that the contents of
underlying directories magically shows up after a mkdir() we set the S_OPAQUE
flag if directories are created where a whiteout existed before.
