Title:
re-apply missing overlayfs SAUCE patch
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
In Progress
Status in linux source package in Impish:
Fix Released
Status in linux source package in Jammy:
Fix Released
Bug description:
[Impact]
Starting with 5.13 we've incorrectly dropped the following sauce
patch:
UBUNTU: SAUCE: overlayfs: fix incorrect mnt_id of files opened
from map_files
This patch seems to be required to use overlayfs on top of shiftfs and
without this patch we may break containers that rely on shiftfs (using
zfs/ceph as storage pool w/ shiftfs enabled).
[Test case]
No specific test case provided.
[Fix]
The original SAUCE patch relies on AUFS in order to use
vma->vm_prfile, but we're not providing AUFS anymore in jammy,.
The fix consists of re-apply this patch with a little refactoring to
be dependent on CONFIG_AUFS_FS.
[Regression potential]
This patch is touching overlayfs, so we may see potential regressions
in overlayfs.
[Original bug report]
The next patch has not been ported to the the 5.13 branch:
$ git show Ubuntu-azure-5.8-5.8.0-1033.35_20.04.1~656
