Hi, I am co-working on a read-only FUSE file system called CernVM-FS. It is used to provide executables and other data to various users over HTTP from a central repository. I am currently investigating the feasibility to use aufs in the update process of such repositories. Basically by attaching a read-write branch to the mounted repository volume, applying the update and synching the collected changes in the read-write branch into the repository afterwards. This works quite well, up to synching hard links and distinguishing between edited and overwritten files, for which I would need to investigate the inode mappings aufs uses internally.
Is there a way, to access this information? I read about the xino file, which sounds as a solution to me, but I didn't find a way to access it. Is there another possibility to access these mappings?
