[PATCH v3 2/5] ovl: relax same fs constrain for constant st_ino

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

 



For the case of all layers not on the same fs, use the copy up
origin st_ino/st_dev for non-dir, if we know it.

This guarantied constant and persistent st_ino/st_dev for non-dir,
but not system-wide uniqueness, like in the same fs case.
