It is now a singly linked list rooted in the dentry of the topmost directory, instead of a set of path -> path mappings kept in a hash table. The union hash table lookup routines have gone away, along with most of struct union_dir. * On union mount, clone the underlying read-only mounts and keep them in a list hanging off the superblock of the topmost file system. It also includes many other minor fixups, but those are the big changes. Patches are against 2.6.34. Git version is in branch "linked_list" of: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/val/linux-2.6.git Next up: Rewrite user_path_nd() and associated code, and implement the rest of Al Viro's code review comments. -VAL Felix Fietkau (2): whiteout: jffs2 whiteout support fallthru: jffs2 fallthru support Jan Blunck (11): VFS: Make lookup_hash() return a struct path autofs4: Save autofs trigger's vfsmount in super block info whiteout/NFSD: Don't return information about whiteouts to userspace whiteout: Add vfs_whiteout() and whiteout inode operation whiteout: Set S_OPAQUE inode flag when creating directories whiteout: Allow removal of a directory with whiteouts whiteout: tmpfs whiteout support whiteout: Split of ext2_append_link() from ext2_add_link() whiteout: ext2 whiteout support union-mount: Introduce MNT_UNION and MS_UNION flags union-mount: Call do_whiteout() on unlink and rmdir in unions Valerie Aurora (25): VFS: Comment follow_mount() and friends VFS: Add read-only users count to superblock fallthru: Basic fallthru definitions fallthru: ext2 fallthru support fallthru: tmpfs fallthru support union-mount: Union mounts documentation union-mount: Introduce union_dir structure and basic operations union-mount: Free union dirs on removal from dcache union-mount: Support for mounting union mount file systems union-mount: Implement union lookup union-mount: Copy up directory entries on first readdir() VFS: Split inode_permission() and create path_permission() VFS: Create user_path_nd() to lookup both parent and target union-mount: In-kernel file copyup routines union-mount: Implement union-aware access()/faccessat() union-mount: Implement union-aware link() union-mount: Implement union-aware rename() union-mount: Implement union-aware writable open() union-mount: Implement union-aware chown() union-mount: Implement union-aware truncate() union-mount: Implement union-aware chmod()/fchmodat() union-mount: Implement union-aware lchown() union-mount: Implement union-aware utimensat() union-mount: Implement union-aware setxattr() union-mount: Implement union-aware lsetxattr() Documentation/filesystems/union-mounts.txt | 759 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Documentation/filesystems/vfs.txt | 16 +- fs/Kconfig | 13 + fs/Makefile | 1 + fs/autofs4/autofs_i.h | 1 + fs/autofs4/init.c | 11 +- fs/autofs4/root.c | 6 + fs/compat.c | 9 + fs/dcache.c | 32 ++- fs/ext2/dir.c | 248 ++++++++- fs/ext2/ext2.h | 4 + fs/ext2/inode.c | 11 +- fs/ext2/namei.c | 89 ++++- fs/ext2/super.c | 6 + fs/jffs2/dir.c | 104 ++++- fs/jffs2/fs.c | 4 + fs/jffs2/super.c | 2 +- fs/libfs.c | 21 +- fs/namei.c | 751 ++++++++++++++++++++++++---- fs/namespace.c | 263 ++++++++++- fs/nfsd/nfs3xdr.c | 5 + fs/nfsd/nfs4xdr.c | 5 + fs/nfsd/nfsxdr.c | 4 + fs/open.c | 116 ++++- fs/readdir.c | 18 + fs/super.c | 24 + fs/union.c | 693 +++++++++++++++++++++++++ fs/union.h | 80 +++ fs/utimes.c | 14 +- fs/xattr.c | 65 ++- include/linux/dcache.h | 16 +- include/linux/ext2_fs.h | 5 + include/linux/fs.h | 20 + include/linux/jffs2.h | 8 + include/linux/mount.h | 6 +- include/linux/namei.h | 2 + mm/shmem.c | 195 +++++++- 37 files changed, 3445 insertions(+), 182 deletions(-) create mode 100644 Documentation/filesystems/union-mounts.txt create mode 100644 fs/union.c create mode 100644 fs/union.h -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
