[PATCH 01/25] Unionfs: Simplify unionfs_get_nlinks

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Josef 'Jeff' Sipek <[email protected]>

Since we set the right value for d_type in readdir, there's really no point
in having to calculate the number of directory links.  Some on-disk
filesystems don't even store the number of links for directories.
