<title>ovl: pass correct flags for opening real directory</title>

<id>urn:sha1:130fdbc3d1f9966dd4230709c30f3768bccd3065</id>
<content type='text'>
The three instances of ovl_path_open() in overlayfs/readdir.c do three
different things:

 - pass f_flags from overlay file
 - pass O_RDONLY | O_DIRECTORY
 - pass just O_RDONLY

The value of f_flags can be (other than O_RDONLY):

O_WRONLY	- not possible for a directory
O_RDWR		- not possible for a directory
O_CREAT		- masked out by dentry_open()
O_EXCL		- masked out by dentry_open()
O_NOCTTY	- masked out by dentry_open()
O_TRUNC		- masked out by dentry_open()
O_APPEND	- no effect on directory ops
O_NDELAY	- no effect on directory ops
O_NONBLOCK	- no effect on directory ops
__O_SYNC	- no effect on directory ops
O_DSYNC		- no effect on directory ops
FASYNC		- no effect on directory ops
O_DIRECT	- no effect on directory ops
O_LARGEFILE	- ?
O_DIRECTORY	- only affects lookup
O_NOFOLLOW	- only affects lookup
O_NOATIME	- overlay sets this unconditionally in ovl_path_open()
O_CLOEXEC	- only affects fd allocation
O_PATH		- no effect on directory ops
__O_TMPFILE	- not possible for a directory


Fon non-merge directories we use the underlying filesystem's iterate; in
this case honor O_LARGEFILE from the original file to make sure that open
doesn't get rejected.

For merge directories it's safe to pass O_LARGEFILE unconditionally since
userspace will only see the artificial offsets created by overlayfs.

<content type='text'>
Share inode with different whiteout files for saving inode and speeding up
delete operation.

If EMLINK is encountered when linking a shared whiteout, create a new one.
In case of any other error, disable sharing for this super block.

Note: ofs-&gt;whiteout is protected by inode lock on workdir.

<title>ovl: enable xino automatically in more cases</title>

<id>urn:sha1:926e94d79baf76ce7a4d26c3116b6d85a77a475b</id>
<content type='text'>
So far, with xino=auto, we only enable xino if we know that all
underlying filesystem use 32bit inode numbers.

When users configure overlay with xino=auto, they already declare that
they are ready to handle 64bit inode number from overlay.

It is a very common case, that underlying filesystem uses 64bit ino,
but rarely or never uses the high inode number bits (e.g. tmpfs, xfs).
Leaving it for the users to declare high ino bits are unused with
xino=on is not a recipe for many users to enjoy the benefits of xino.

There appears to be very little reason not to enable xino when users
declare xino=auto even if we do not know how many bits underlying
filesystem uses for inode numbers.

In the worst case of xino bits overflow by real inode number, we
already fall back to the non-xino behavior - real inode number with
unique pseudo dev or to non persistent inode number and overlay st_dev
(for directories).

The only annoyance from auto enabling xino is that xino bits overflow
emits a warning to kmsg. Suppress those warnings unless users explicitly
asked for xino=on, suggesting that they expected high ino bits to be
unused by underlying filesystem.

<title>ovl: avoid possible inode number collisions with xino=on</title>

<id>urn:sha1:dfe51d47b7eeb5642ed92558b62eeff558f00eda</id>
<content type='text'>
When xino feature is enabled and a real directory inode number overflows
the lower xino bits, we cannot map this directory inode number to a unique
and persistent inode number and we fall back to the real inode st_ino and
overlay st_dev.

The real inode st_ino with high bits may collide with a lower inode number
on overlay st_dev that was mapped using xino.

To avoid possible collision with legitimate xino values, map a non
persistent inode number to a dedicated range in the xino address space.
The dedicated range is created by adding one more bit to the number of
reserved high xino bits.  We could have added just one more fsid, but that
would have had the undesired effect of changing persistent overlay inode
numbers on kernel or require more complex xino mapping code.

<content type='text'>
No code uses the sb returned from this helper, so make it retrun a boolean
and rename it to ovl_same_fs().

The xino mode is irrelevant when all layers are on same fs, so instead of
describing samefs with mode OVL_XINO_OFF, use a new xino_mode state, which
is 0 in the case of samefs, -1 in the case of xino=off and &gt; 0 with xino
enabled.

Create a new helper ovl_same_dev(), to use instead of the common check for
(ovl_same_fs() || xinobits).
