Subject: [GIT PULL] erofs fix for 6.19-rc5
Date: Sat, 10 Jan 2026 13:23:56 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <aWHibOkAT18Hc/G5@debian> (raw)
Hi Linus,
Could you consider this urgent fix for 6.19-rc5?
Actually upstream commit d53cd891f0e4 ("erofs: limit the level of fs
stacking for file-backed mounts") causes composefs regressions since
EROFS + ovl^2 cannot be mounted properly anymore and we all agree to
land this band-aid fix as the first step.
The more backgound details are shown in the commit message.
Thanks,
Gao Xiang
