Date: Thu, 23 Sep 2021 21:08:11 +0800 From: Chengguang Xu <cgxu519@...ernel.net> To: miklos@...redi.hu, jack@...e.cz, amir73il@...il.com Cc: linux-fsdevel@...r.kernel.org, linux-unionfs@...r.kernel.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, Chengguang Xu <cgxu519@...ernel.net> Subject: [RFC PATCH v5 07/10] ovl: cache dirty overlayfs' inode Now drop overlayfs' inode will sync dirty data, so we change to only drop clean inode. The purpose of doing this is to keep compatible behavior with before because without this change dropping overlayfs inode will not trigger syncing of underlying dirty inode.
