We are pleased to announce Unionfs 2.5.2.  This is a porting and small
bug-fix release.  Here are the changes from the previous release, 2.5.1:

- updates for 2.6.30, 2.6.29.4, 2.6.28.10, and 2.6.27.24.
- bugfix: lock base inode sem before calling lookup_one_len
- bugfix: prevent false positive lockdep warnings in file->release

Note: there's some bug in nfs4 in 2.6.30 when doing ftruncate() through
unionfs on an nfs4-mounted file system.  I'm still debugging it, but I
didn't want to hold up this release (I suspect not too many people use nfs4
w/ unionfs).

This code was tested on all of our ports: 2.6.{9,18-30}.  You can find links
to specific releases for specific kernels in either of these URLs:

As usual, feel free to report all problems you find to

Enjoy.

Erez, on behalf of the Unionfs team.
