I think you're assuming that you'll want to use the existing Unionfs code
for Linux for any Solaris port.  You wouldn't want to, and not just for
licensing reasons.  The two VFSs are so different, that it would be a
terrible mistake to try and port that Linux code.  It'd be much better to
write a unionfs for solaris from scratch.  If I were to do that, I'd start
by looking at two things:

1. The rather old fistgen templates for Solaris

2. The Solaris's CacheFS code, which is a fan-out-like stackable file
   systems and the closest thing to our Linux Unionfs.

Erez.
