Miklos,
This set is an independent series a top of current overlayfs-next.
I yanked all the dependencies from previous postings (consistent d_ino,
dir_lock, verify_lower) and included everything needed in this posting.
This work introcuding the inodes index opt-in feature, which provides:
- Hardlinks are not broken on copy up
- Infrastructure for overlayfs NFS export
Hardlink copy up tests including concurrent copy up of lower hardlinks
are available on my xfstests dev branch [1].
There are some more TODO items before this is ready for v4.13, but I'd
love to hear what you think about the direction this has taken so far.
Thanks,
Amir.
TODO:
- Consistency of lower and upper hardlinks (*)
- Cleanup stale and orphan index entries on mount (**)
- Document the inodes index feature
(*) When any lower hardlink has been copied up, we get the indexed
upper inode on lookup of all lower hardlinks and since they all
share the same overlay inode, they have the same 'realinode'.
Opening the lower hardlinks for read gives that lower inode
and not the indexed upper 'realinode'. The tests in [1] demostrate
this problem.
(**) A stale index entry has a missing or stale 'origin' xattr. An
orphan index entry has nlink 1 and all lower hardlinks are covered.
v2:
- Rebase on top of overalyfs-next with all dependencies
- Remove 'verify_lower' dependency and simplify
- Lookup index dentry on ovl_lookup()
- Don't hash broken overlay hardlinks by origin
- Fix nlink count of overlay inodes
- Constant st_ino for indexed hardlinks
v1:
- Upper/work dir exclusive lock
- Introduce verify_lower mount option
- Hash overlay inodes by origin
- Introduce inodes index feature
- Copy up hardlinks using inodes index
