From 9a87907de3597a339cc129229d1a20bc7365ea5f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Miklos Szeredi Date: Thu, 2 May 2024 20:35:57 +0200 Subject: ovl: implement tmpfile Combine inode creation with opening a file. There are six separate objects that are being set up: the backing inode, dentry and file, and the overlay inode, dentry and file. Cleanup in case of an error is a bit of a challenge and is difficult to test, so careful review is needed. All tmpfile testcases except generic/509 now run/pass, and no regressions are observed with full xfstests.
