[PATCH v6 8/9] ovl: update merge dir cache for non-samefs case

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

 



st_ino returned by stat(2) for dirs on non-samefs is the non persistent
overlay i_ino. Update the dir cache with volatile overlay i_ino values.
Overlay dir cache and inode cache may get out of sync after child inodes
exit and re-enter inode cache. This means that user may see inconsistent
st_ino/d_ino, but user can already see inconsistent st_ino of same object
in different times, so this is better than nothing.
