[PATCH][V4] ovl: fix lookup failure on multi lower squashfs
From: Colin King
Date: Wed Nov 13 2019 - 15:06:56 EST
From: Amir Goldstein <amir73il@xxxxxxxxx>
In the past, overlayfs required that lower fs have non null
uuid in order to support nfs export and decode copy up origin file handles.
Commit 9df085f3c9a2 ("ovl: relax requirement for non null uuid of
lower fs") relaxed this requirement for nfs export support, as long
as uuid (even if null) is unique among all lower fs.
However, said commit unintentionally also relaxed the non null uuid
requirement for decoding copy up origin file handles, regardless of
the unique uuid requirement.
Amend this mistake by disabling decoding of copy up origin file handle
from lower fs with a conflicting uuid.
We still encode copy up origin file handles from those fs, because
file handles like those already exist in the wild and because they
might provide useful information in the future.
[Colin Ian King] fixed the case of index=off,nfs_export=off

V3: fix the following check:
- if (!ofs->config.nfs_export && !(ofs->config.index && ofs->upper_mnt))
+ if (!ofs->config.nfs_export && !ofs->upper_mnt)
V4: remove bogus ofs->upper_mnt check
