[RFC PATCH 00/39] Union mounts with xattrs

From: Valerie Aurora
Date: Mon May 03 2010 - 19:24:28 EST


This release of union mounts includes:

- Updated Documentation/filesystems/union-mounts.txt
- Support for extended attributes

This version is feature-complete for local file systems. Al Viro and
I will be reviewing it together this week, and a new version
incorporating his comments will be out as soon as I can implement it.

Patches are against 2.6.34-rc6. See branch "xattr" in:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/val/linux-2.6.git
