From df1a085af1f652a02238168c4f2b730c8c90dd4a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Howells Date: Thu, 29 Jan 2015 12:02:28 +0000 Subject: VFS: Add a fallthrough flag for marking virtual dentries Add a DCACHE_FALLTHRU flag to indicate that, in a layered filesystem, this is a virtual dentry that covers another one in a lower layer that should be used instead. This may be recorded on medium if directory integration is stored there. The flag can be set with d_set_fallthru() and tested with d_is_fallthru().
