Hello Amir,

Sure. So here is what I was planning.
I am about to start going over patches mentioned in Amir's ovl-aops-wip
branch. My first preference would be to port it to latest upstream and
start cleaning it up.
I will update the branch details once those patches are ported to
latest upstream. Let me know if we should do this in any different way.
Sounds like a plan.
I will also be joining this year's plumber, in case if we want
to discuss anything on this. Although I am not sure if by then, I would
be able to get any substantial work done to discuss with a wider
audience. But nevertheless, we can always have a call/email exchanges
for this, both before and after the conference :)
Nice. I will be giving a talk on new overlayfs features on the containers track.
I guess there won't be much in the hallway tracks this year...
I went over almost all patches which you have in ovl-aops-wip branch.
For now I have only ported some of the straight forward patches,
since I had few queries on those other patches and one was mainly
w.r.t. metadata only feature functionality.
Those questions you can also ask Vivek if you find him in LPC...
Sure, thanks. Will try to check with Vivek.
Do you have sometime today to discuss about it in any of the LPC hacker
room? I was thinking maybe discussing this in person will help a lot.
I agree that a video meetup can be useful to kickoff this effort, but
it is preferred if Chengguang can also attend, because it feels like
you guys need to collaborate.
Any preferred slot? I could not find you online on LPC chat area,
we can as well discuss the slot there. But I am fine with any of the LPC
timings.
I cannot do LPC times today or tomorrow, but the hacker rooms are
open and judging by the time of your email you may be closer to my
time zone, so if you want to schedule a meeting somewhere in the next
5 hours, I can join. (7:00-12:00 UTC).
Otherwise, we can always schedule a call outside of LPC, where
participants not registered to LPC will be able to join (Chengguang?).
I agree. Yes, 7:00 - 12:00 UTC works for me.
@Chengguang,
Could you please tell if 7:00 - 12:00 UTC works for you? If yes, then
shall we meet once to discuss about aops implementation for overlayfs.
Is today 11:am UTC ok with you? If yes, then shall we meet today using
below link?
