Subject: a question about opening file
Date: Thu, 05 Nov 2020 09:48:42 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <17596177926.d559c8b77834.5766617584799741474@mykernel.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 

Hello,
 
I have a question about opening file of underlying filesystem in overlayfs,

why we use overlayfs' path(vfsmount/dentry) struct for underlying fs' file  

in ovl_open_realfile()?  Is it by design?


Thanks,
Chengguang
