Here's a pair of patches to make a number of improvements to the AFS dynamic root: (1) Create an /afs/.<cell> mountpoint to match the /afs/<cell> mountpoint when a cell is created. (2) Change the handling of /afs/@cell from being a dentry name substitution at lookup time to making it a symlink to the current cell name and also provide a /afs/.@cell symlink to point to the dotted cell mountpoint. The patches are here: http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs.git/log/?h=afs-next Thanks, David David Howells (2): afs: Make /afs/.<cell> as well /afs/<cell> mountpoints afs: Make /afs/@cell and /afs/.@cell symlinks fs/afs/cell.c | 13 ++- fs/afs/dynroot.c | 190 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++---------- include/trace/events/afs.h | 2 + 3 files changed, 152 insertions(+), 53 deletions(-)
