Hello,
The attached script (test05.sh) makes a read-only overlayfs mount on top of
another readonly overlayfs mount, repeating this in a loop,
when all the read-only filesystems are mounted, then it mounts another
overlayfs that uses the last read-only rootdir as lowerdir and a read-write
filesystem in upperdir,
this method gives persistence to mount and unmount, overlayfs will save the fs
changes in the read-write upperdir.
But it gives a problem when we try to edit the files that are only on the most
upper read-only dir, ( that files are not included in lower read-only dirs ).
# sed -i -e s|a|a|g /tmp/tmp.b/tmp.k/etc/apache2/conf.d/continuoustrade.conf
sed: couldn't open temporary file
/tmp/tmp.b/tmp.k/etc/apache2/conf.d/sedthJcp8: Read-only file system
when we "touch" the file, therefore can be edited.
# touch /tmp/tmp.b/tmp.k/etc/apache2/conf.d/continuoustrade.conf
(OK)
# sed -i -e s|a|a|g /tmp/tmp.b/tmp.k/etc/apache2/conf.d/continuoustrade.conf
(OK)
the same happens using KDE editors like kate or kwrite.
P.D: is included another testing script (test04.sh) that mounts all levels in
read/write mode, it works, but this method is worse because uses multiple
directories to save the changed files and when modifying the files are copied
several times across the directories.
Thanks,
Jordi Pujol

Hello,
Here is attached an automated script that creates his own test data and
reproduces the problem,
I have observed that the problem does not appear when we use as lower dir a
read/write directory and not an squashfs compressed file.
Thanks,

Well, this is not correct. We *do* want to check for write permission.
The above would simply ignore the access control.
What are the permission bits on the file in question?
Thanks,
Miklos

only in some case.

the problem is that sed can't create the temporary file in the same directory,
normally sed will create it using umask permissions, 0022 in my system,
try the automated test contained in my previous message, it creates a log file
that shows the errors.

Thanks for the script, it helped.
The attached patch should fix it. It's not a generic solution and other
filesystems may still not function correctly as a read-only lower layer
(e.g. I can see that btrfs has some sort of "r/o volume flag").
That can be fixed by checking file mode and acl instead of calling
->permission() on the lower inode. Will add that as a FIXME item.
Thanks,
Miklos

ovl: fix overlayfs over overlayfs
Overlayfs expects ->permission() to not check for readonliness (which
is normally checked by the VFS) and so not return with -EROFS. This
is not true of some filesystems, notably overlayfs itself.
The following patch should fix this by making sure that if the upper
layer is read-only (such as squashfs) then it will mark overlayfs
read-only too and by making ovl_permission() only return EROFS in the
excpetional case where the upper filesystem became r/o after the
overlay was constructed.

Hello,
Here are my comments about this patch:
I think "append" should also be prohibited in a read-only fs.
if (mask & (MAY_WRITE | MAY_APPEND))
About the readonly modification on the main filisystem mount, before this
modification overlayfs already emited a warning message when mounting using a
read only upperdir. Following is an old log:
+ COW_DIR=/tmp/TEST-sz5/COW-Mec
+ mount -t tmpfs -o ro tmpfs /tmp/TEST-sz5/COW-Mec
+ mount -t overlayfs -o rw,lowerdir=/tmp/TEST-sz5/ROOT-RO-
kei,upperdir=/tmp/TEST-sz5/COW-Mec overlayfs /tmp/TEST-sz5/ROOT-S1M
mount: block device overlayfs is write-protected, mounting read-only
(warning, return code 0)
+ mount -o remount,rw /tmp/TEST-sz5/ROOT-S1M
mount: cannot remount block device overlayfs read-write, is write-protected
(error, rc 32)
+ mount -l
overlayfs on /tmp/TEST-sz5/ROOT-S1M type overlayfs (ro,
but now, after appliying the last patch, the behaviour is very confused:
- there is no warning message when mounting overlayfs rw on a ro upperdir
- /proc/mounts shows overlayfs as a rw fs while really it is ro
+ mount -l
...
tmpfs on /tmp/TEST-Eo7/COW-uYW type tmpfs (ro)
overlayfs on /tmp/TEST-Eo7/ROOT-dAb type overlayfs (rw,lowerdir=/tmp/TEST-
Eo7/ROOT-RO-TfK,upperdir=/tmp/TEST-Eo7/ROOT-RO-TfK,upperdir=/tmp/TEST-Eo7/COW-
uYW)
+ mount -o remount,rw /tmp/TEST-Eo7/ROOT-dAb
mount: cannot remount block device overlayfs read-write, is write-protected
Sincerely, the previous behaviour was better,
Thanks,
Jordi Pujol
