From d1d04ef8572bc8c22265057bd3d5a79f223f8f52 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Miklos Szeredi Date: Wed, 18 Jul 2018 15:44:41 +0200 Subject: ovl: stack file ops Implement file operations on a regular overlay file. The underlying file is opened separately and cached in ->private_data. It might be worth making an exception for such files when accounting in nr_file to confirm to userspace expectations. We are only adding a small overhead (248bytes for the struct file) since the real inode and dentry are pinned by overlayfs anyway. This patch doesn't have any effect, since the vfs will use d_real() to find the real underlying file to open. The patch at the end of the series will actually enable this functionality. AV: make it use open_with_fake_path(), don't mess with override_creds SzM: still need to mess with override_creds() until no fs uses current_cred() in their open method.
