passed my tests. I now run all my tests (including unionmount-testsuite) on a setup of overlayfs over xfs with reflink: - xfstests - from my github overlayfs-devel branch -g quick and overlay/* including new test 016 to check ro/rw fd data inconsistencies - pjdfstest - from my github overlayfs-devel branch including acl/xattr tests - unionmount-testsuite - from my github overlayfs-devel branch without recycling (--ov), with mount recycle -(-ov=0) and with mount recycle and layers (--ov=10) Tested-by: Amir Goldstein <amir7...@gmail.com>
