Subject: [PATCH 00/39] overlayfs: stack file operations
Date: Tue, 29 May 2018 16:43:00 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180529144339.16538-1-mszeredi@redhat.com> (raw)
Up till now overlayfs didn't stack regular file operations. Instead, when
a file was opened on an overlay, the file from one of the underlying layers
would be opened and any file operations performed would directly go to the
underlying file on a real filesystem.
This works well mostly, but various hacks were added to the VFS to work
around issues with this:
- d_path() and friends
- relatime handling
- file locking
- fsnotify
- writecount handling
There are also issues that are unresolved before this patchset:
- ioctl's that need write access but can be performed on a O_RDONLY fd
- ro/rw inconsistency: file on lower layer opened for read-only will
return stale data on read after copy-up and modification
- ro/rw inconsistency for mmap: file on lower layer mapped shared will
contain stale data after copy-up and modification
This patch series reverts the VFS hacks (with the exception of d_path) and
fixes the unresoved issues. We need to keep d_path related hacks, because
memory maps are still not stacked, yet d_path() should keep working on
vma->vm_file->f_path.
No regressions were observed after running various test suites (xfstests,
ltp, unionmount-testsuite, pjd-fstest).
Performance impact of stacking was found to be minimal. Memory use for
open overlay files increases by about 256bytes or 12%.
