Subject: [PATCH 21/73] union-mount: Create union_stack structure [ver #2]
Date: Tue, 21 Feb 2012 18:00:10 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120221180010.25235.14553.stgit@warthog.procyon.org.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120221175721.25235.8901.stgit@warthog.procyon.org.uk>

From: Valerie Aurora <vaurora@redhat.com>

struct union_stack records the stack of directories unioned at this
directory.  A union_stack is an array of struct paths, dynamically
allocated when the dentry for the topmost directory is created.  The
topmost dentry contains a pointer to the union_stack.
