From 1434a65ea625c51317ccdf06dabf4bd27d20fa10 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chengguang Xu Date: Tue, 26 May 2020 09:35:57 +0800 Subject: ovl: drop negative dentry in upper layer Negative dentries of upper layer are useless after construction of overlayfs' own dentry and may keep in the memory long time even after unmount of overlayfs instance. This patch tries to drop unnecessary negative dentry of upper layer to effectively reclaim memory.
