[GIT PULL] overlayfs update for 4.8

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Linus,

Please pull from:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/vfs.git overlayfs-linus

First of all, this fixes a regression in overlayfs introduced by the dentry hash
salting.  I've moved the patch fixing this to the front of the queue, so if (god
forbid) something needs to be bisected in overlayfs this regression won't
interfere with that.

The biggest part is preparation for selinux support, done by Vivek Goyal.
Essentially this makes all operations on underlying filesystems be done with
credentials of mounter.  This makes everything nicely consistent.

There are also fixes for a number of known and recently discovered non-standard
behavior (thanks to Eryu Guan for testing and improving the test suites).

Thanks,
Miklos
