      ovl: Set d->last properly during lookup · 452061fd
      Vivek Goyal authored 
      d->last signifies that this is the last layer we are looking into and there
is no more. And that means this allows for some optimzation opportunities
during lookup. For example, in ovl_lookup_single() we don't have to check
for opaque xattr of a directory is this is the last layer we are looking
into (d->last = true).

But knowing for sure whether we are looking into last layer can be very
tricky. If redirects are not enabled, then we can look at poe->numlower and
figure out if the lookup we are about to is last layer or not. But if
redircts are enabled then it is possible poe->numlower suggests that we are
looking in last layer, but there is an absolute redirect present in found
element and that redirects us to a layer in root and that means lookup will
continue in lower layers further.

For example, consider following.

/upperdir/pure (opaque=y)
/upperdir/pure/foo (opaque=y,redirect=/bar)
/lowerdir/bar

In this case pure is "pure upper". When we look for "foo", that time
poe->numlower=0. But that alone does not mean that we will not search for a
merge candidate in /lowerdir. Absolute redirect changes that.

IOW, d->last should not be set just based on poe->numlower if redirects are
enabled. That can lead to setting d->last while it should not have and that
means we will not check for opaque xattr while we should have.

So do this.

 - If redirects are not enabled, then continue to rely on poe->numlower
   information to determine if it is last layer or not.

 - If redirects are enabled, then set d->last = true only if this is the
   last layer in root ovl_entry (roe).

      ovl: set i_ino to the value of st_ino for NFS export · 695b46e7
      Amir Goldstein authored 
      Eddie Horng reported that readdir of an overlayfs directory that
was exported via NFSv3 returns entries with d_type set to DT_UNKNOWN.
The reason is that while preparing the response for readdirplus, nfsd
checks inside encode_entryplus_baggage() that a child dentry's inode
number matches the value of d_ino returns by overlayfs readdir iterator.

Because the overlayfs inodes use arbitrary inode numbers that are not
correlated with the values of st_ino/d_ino, NFSv3 falls back to not
encoding d_type. Although this is an allowed behavior, we can fix it for
the case of all overlayfs layers on the same underlying filesystem.

When NFS export is enabled and d_ino is consistent with st_ino
(samefs), set the same value also to i_ino in ovl_fill_inode() for all
overlayfs inodes, nfsd readdirplus sanity checks will pass.
ovl_fill_inode() may be called from ovl_new_inode(), before real inode
was created with ino arg 0. In that case, i_ino will be updated to real
upper inode i_ino on ovl_inode_init() or ovl_inode_update().
