Subject: [PATCH 03/16] Unionfs: Retry lookup for different silly-renamed files
Date: Sun, 17 Jun 2007 15:09:10 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <11821073631675-git-send-email-jsipek@cs.sunysb.edu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <11821073632989-git-send-email-jsipek@cs.sunysb.edu>

From: Erez Zadok <ezk@cs.sunysb.edu>

When we have to copyup an open-but-unlinked file, we have to give it a
temporary name, similar to NFS's silly-renamed files.  So we generate
temporary file names until we find one that doesn't exist, and use it.  The
code had a bug where if the silly-renamed file name already existed, Unionfs
would oops upon copyup to that temp name.
