[PATCH v14 20/31] ovl: Treat metacopy dentries as type OVL_PATH_MERGE

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

 



Right now OVL_PATH_MERGE is used only for merged directories.
But conceptually, a metacopy dentry (backed by a lower data dentry) is
a merged entity as well.

So mark metacopy dentries as OVL_PATH_MERGE and ovl_rename() makes use
of this property later to set redirect on a metacopy file.
