The following new releases of Unionfs 2.0 are now available on
<http://unionfs.filesystems.org/>
linux-2.6.23-rc1-u1 (new port)
linux-2.6.22.1-u3
linux-2.6.21.6-u3
linux-2.6.20.14-u5
linux-2.6.19.7-u5
linux-2.6.18.8-u5
linux-2.6.9-u3
Changes from last set of releases:
1. mmap bug fixes to unionfs_writepage/readpage/sync_page. These are
crucial fixes when using unionfs in memory-constrained environments and
especially for those of who using TMPFS.
2. correctness and cache-coherency: implement native ->fsync and ->fasync.
This is a vital fix especially for people who compile their kernel with
CONFIG_BLOCK=n (usually for very small embedded systems).
3. cache-coherency: update root inode times after branch management
4. bugfix: correctly count lower vfsmount references after branch
management, when open files are revalidated.
As usual, feel free to report all problems you find to
<https://bugzilla.filesystems.org/>
Enjoy.
Erez, on behalf of the Unionfs team.
