[PATCH 08/16] Unionfs: release lower resources on successful rmdir

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

 



This patch prevents those resources from lingering around until memory
pressure would have forced them out.  The patch also properly handles
directories that have been rmdir'ed which are still some process's cwd.
