Hi Al, Today's linux-next merge of the vfs tree got conflicts in: include/linux/fs.h between commit: e8f97b0a52b3 ("vfs: optionally don't account file in nr_files") from the overlayfs tree and commit: db39e40a9682 ("new syscall: open_tree(2)") from the vfs tree. I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary. This is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any non trivial conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer when your tree is submitted for merging. You may also want to consider cooperating with the maintainer of the conflicting tree to minimise any particularly complex conflicts. -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell diff --cc include/linux/fs.h index ef2a9bba4e11,55ddf123023c..000000000000 --- a/include/linux/fs.h +++ b/include/linux/fs.h @@@ -154,9 -157,9 +157,12 @@@ typedef int (dio_iodone_t)(struct kioc /* File is capable of returning -EAGAIN if I/O will block */ #define FMODE_NOWAIT ((__force fmode_t)0x8000000) + /* File represents mount that needs unmounting */ + #define FMODE_NEED_UNMOUNT ((__force fmode_t)0x10000000) + +/* File does not contribute to nr_files count */ - #define FMODE_NOACCOUNT ((__force fmode_t)0x10000000) ++#define FMODE_NOACCOUNT ((__force fmode_t)0x20000000) + /* * Flag for rw_copy_check_uvector and compat_rw_copy_check_uvector * that indicates that they should check the contents of the iovec are
