[PATCH 08/12] Unionfs: copyup only if file is being written to

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

 



Before, we used to copyup on an open(2) call which used flags implying
writing (O_RDWR, O_WRONLY, O_APPEND).  This meant that a file being opened
for writing, then immediately closed (without actually writing to the file),
will still have been copied up.  Now, we don't copyup such files in ->open,
but defer the copyup till later. [Bug #591].
