++
++1. What are "Union Mounts"
++==========================
++
++Please note: this is NOT about UnionFS and it is NOT derived work!
++
++Traditionally the mount operation is opaque, which means that the content of
++the mount point, the directory where the file system is mounted on, is hidden
++by the content of the mounted file system's root directory until the file
++system is unmounted again. Unlike the traditional UNIX mount mechanism, that
++hides the contents of the mount point, a union mount presents a view as if
++both filesystems are merged together. Although only the topmost layer of the
++mount stack can be altered, it appears as if transparent file system mounts
++allow any file to be created, modified or deleted.
++
++Most people know the concepts and features of union mounts from other
++operating systems like Sun's Translucent Filesystem, Plan9 or BSD. For an
++in-depth review of union mounts and other unioning file systems, see:
++
++http://lwn.net/Articles/324291/
++http://lwn.net/Articles/325369/
++http://lwn.net/Articles/327738/
++
++Here are the key features of this implementation:
++- completely VFS based
++- does not change the namespace stacking
++- directory listings have duplicate entries removed in the kernel
++- writable unions: only the topmost file system layer may be writable
++- writable unions: new whiteout filetype handled inside the kernel
++
++-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
++
++2. The Union Stack
++==================
++
++The mounted file systems are organized in the "file system hierarchy" (tree of
++vfsmount structures), which keeps track about the stacking of file systems
++upon each other. The per-directory view on the file system hierarchy is called
++"mount stack" and reflects the order of file systems, which are mounted on a
++specific directory.
++
++Union mounts present a single unified view of the contents of two or more file
++systems as if they are merged together. Since the information which file
++system objects are part of a unified view is not directly available from the
++file system hierarchy there is a need for a new structure. The file system
++objects, which are part of a unified view are ordered in a so-called "union
++stack". Only directories can be part of a unified view.
++
++The link between two layers of the union stack is maintained using the
++union_mount structure (#include <linux/union.h>):
++
++struct union_mount {
++ atomic_t u_count; /* reference count */
++ struct mutex u_mutex;
++ struct list_head u_unions; /* list head for d_unions */
++ struct hlist_node u_hash; /* list head for searching */
++ struct hlist_node u_rhash; /* list head for reverse searching */
++
++ struct path u_this; /* this is me */
++ struct path u_next; /* this is what I overlay */
++};
++
++The union_mount structure holds a reference (dget,mntget) to the next lower
++layer of the union stack. Since a dentry can be part of multiple unions
++(e.g. with bind mounts) they are tied together via the d_unions field of the
++dentry structure.
++
++All union_mount structures are cached in two hash tables, one for lookups of
++the next lower layer of the union stack and one for reverse lookups of the
++next upper layer of the union stack. The reverse lookup is necessary to
++resolve CWD relative path lookups. For calculation of the hash value, the
++(dentry,vfsmount) pair is used. The u_this field is used for the hash table
++which is used in forward lookups and the u_next field for the reverse lookups.
++
++During every new mount (or mount propagation), a new union_mount structure is
++allocated. A reference to the mountpoint's vfsmount and dentry is taken and
++stored in the u_next field. In almost the same manner an union_mount
++structure is created during the first time lookup of a directory within a
++union mount point. In this case the lookup proceeds to all lower layers of the
++union. Therefore the complete union stack is constructed during lookups.
++
++The union_mount structures of a dentry are destroyed when the dentry itself is
++destroyed. Therefore the dentry cache is indirectly driving the union_mount
++cache like this is done for inodes too. Please note that lower layer
++union_mount structures are kept in memory until the topmost dentry is
++destroyed.
++
++-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
++
++3. Whiteouts, Opaque Directories, and Fallthrus
++===========================================================
++
++The whiteout filetype isn't new. It has been there for quite some time now
++but Linux's VFS hasn't used it yet. With the availability of union mount code
++inside the VFS the whiteout filetype is getting important to support writable
++union mounts. For read-only union mounts, support for whiteouts or
++copy-on-open is not necessary.
++
++The whiteout filetype has the same function as negative dentries: they
++describe a filename which isn't there. The creation of whiteouts needs
++lowlevel filesystem support. At the time of writing this, there is whiteout
++support for tmpfs, ext2 and ext3 available. The VFS is extended to make the
++whiteout handling transparent to all its users. The whiteouts are not
++visible to user-space.
++
++What happens when we create a directory that was previously whited-out? We
++don't want the directory entries from underlying filesystems to suddenly appear
++in the newly created directory. So we mark the directory opaque (the file
++system must support storage of the opaque flag).
++
++Fallthrus are directory entries that override the opaque flag on a directory
++for that specific directory entry name (the lookup "falls through" to the next
++layer of the union mount). Fallthrus are mainly useful for implementing
++readdir().
++
++-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
++
++4. Copy-up
++===========
++
++Any write to an object on any layer other than the topmost triggers a copy-up
++of the object to the topmost file system. For regular files, the copy-up
++happens when it is opened in writable mode.
++
++Directories are copied up on open, regardless of intent to write, to simplify
++copy-up of any object located below it in the namespace. Otherwise we have to
++walk the entire pathname to create intermediate directories whenever we do a
++copy-up. This is the same approach as BSD union mounts and uses a negigible
++amount of disk space. Note that the actual directory entries themselves are
++not copied-up from the lower levels until (a) the directory is written to, or
++(b) the first readdir() of the directory (more on that later).
++
++Rename across different levels of the union is implemented as a copy-up
++operation for regular files. Rename of directories simply returns EXDEV, the
++same as if we tried to rename across different mounts. Most applications have
++to handle this case anyway. Some applications do not expect EXDEV on
++rename operations within the same directory, but these applications will also
++be broken with bind mounts.
++
++-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
++
++5. Directory Reading
++====================
++
++readdir() is somewhat difficult to implement in a unioning file system. We must
++eliminate duplicates, apply whiteouts, and start up readdir() where we left
++off, given a single f_pos value. Our solution is to copy up all the directory
++entries to the topmost directory the first time readdir() is called on a
++directory. During this copy-up, we skip duplicates and entries covered by
++whiteouts, and then create fallthru entries for each remaining visible dentry.
++Then we mark the whole directory opaque. From then on, we just use the topmost
++file system's normal readdir() operation.
++
++-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
++
++6. Known Problems
++=================
++
++- copyup() for other filetypes that reg and dir (e.g. for chown() on devices)
++- symlinks are untested
++
++-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
