aufs3 GIT release

2014-05-25 Thread sfjro

o news
- in aufs3-standalong.git, introduce two new patches, vfs-ino.patch and
  tmpfs-ibitmap.patch.
  aufs3-loopback.patch has existed since many years before, but not
  described. Other two patches are introdued by the neighbourhood of
  this commit.

There several other patches in aufs3-standalone.git. They are all
optional. When you meet some problems, they will help you.
- aufs3-loopback.patch
  Supports a nested loopback mount in a branch-fs. This patch is
  unnecessary until aufs produces a message such like you may want to 
try
  another patch for loopback file.
- vfs-ino.patch
  Modifies a system global kernel internal function get_next_ino() in
  order to stop assigning 0 for an inode-number. Not directly related to
  aufs, but recommended generally.
- tmpfs-ibitmap.patch
  Keeps the tmpfs inode number as the lowest value. Effective to reduce
  the size of aufs XINO files for tmpfs branch. Also it prevents the
  duplication of inode number, which is important for backup
  tools, aubrsync or other utilities. When you find aufs XINO files for
  tmpfs branch growing too much, try this patch.

Re: aufs memory leak issue status

Nikolay Pertsev:
 Do you have any estimate on when you would be able to create fix for this?
 The results from patch you have already made are wonderful and it will be
 really great to have this patch fully working.

I have just made this week's Monday GIT release.
Try tmpfs-ibitmap.patch in aufs3-standalone.git.

Hello Okajima,

Thanks for the tmpfs patch! This is really good.

For the vfs-ino patch, it does not apply to linux-3.12.20.
However, this is not very important and applying this patch
manually is easy.
