[PATCH 0/4] fstests: fixes for config option OVERLAY_MOUNT_OPTIONS

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

 



Eryu,

Since v4.13, overlayfs supports mount option index=on/off per mount
and kernel config option CONFIG_OVERLAY_FS_INDEX that sets the default
system wide value when mount option is not specified.

The behavior of overlayfs may differ for index=on/off, specifically
for hardlinks. It is therefore important to be able to test overlayfs
with both index=on/off.

To that end exists the OVERLAY_MOUNT_OPTIONS config option, only
when I tried to use it I found it was broken in more than one way.
This series fixed the use of OVERLAY_MOUNT_OPTIONS and refactors
some customized overlay mount helpers along the way.

NOTE for users of kvm-xfstests, this test-appliance change is also
required for invoking kvm-xfstests -m index=on/off

  overlay: remove stale implementation of _scratch_mount_options
