NFS as the lower directory is not working with overlayfs because the dentry operations have not been set correctly. However, NFS evaluates inode and sb from the dentry, which may not be correct when used with overlayfs. So, we store the inode in nfs_open_context (which is translated using d_select_inode) and use it for any inode related operations. -- Goldwyn -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
