[PATCH 24/41] union-mount: Make lookup work for union-mounted file systems

From: Valerie Aurora
Date: Wed Oct 21 2009 - 15:26:26 EST


From: Jan Blunck <jblunck@xxxxxxx>

On union-mounted file systems the lookup function must also visit lower layers
of the union-stack when doing a lookup. This patches add support for
union-mounts to cached lookups and real lookups.

We have 3 different styles of lookup functions now:
- multiple pathname components, follow mounts, follow union, follow symlinks
- single pathname component, doesn't follow mounts, follow union, doesn't
follow symlinks
- single pathname component doesn't follow mounts, doesn't follow unions,
doesn't follow symlinks

XXX - Needs to be re-organized to reduce code duplication. But how?

- Create shared lookup_topmost() and build_union() functions that take
flags or function pointers for real_lookup(), cache_lookup(), etc.
- Push union code farther down into cache_lookup(), etc.
- (your idea here)

XXX - Symlinks to other file systems (and probably submounts) don't
work - see comment in do_lookup().
