[RFC][PATCH 7/14] Union-mount mounting

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

 



From: Jan Blunck <[email protected]>
Subject: Union-mount mounting

Adds union mount support to mount() and umount() system calls.
Sets up the union stack during mount and destroys it during unmount.

TODO: bind and move mounts aren't yet supported with union mounts.
