Hi, I have a question about how unionfs handles file deletion when a write enabled file system is union mounted over a read only file system. For example, I do something like the following:
mount -t unionfs -o dirs=/snap=rw:rofs=ro unionfs /mnt If a create and delete a file in /mnt which is not present in /rofs it persists as whiteout in the snap layer which is not what I would have expected. Why does the deleted file persist as whiteout in the /snap layer of the union mount? -- Paul Albrecht _______________________________________________ unionfs mailing list: http://unionfs.filesystems.org/ unionfs@mail.fsl.cs.sunysb.edu http://www.fsl.cs.sunysb.edu/mailman/listinfo/unionfs
