++

++          minixfs or pramfs.

++2005-06-30  Eric Lammerts <eric@lammerts.org>
++
++	* fix for an oops when overwriting a binary thats beeing

++
++2005-06-09    <mk@mary>
++
++	* Renamed overlay to mini_fo-overlay.
++
++	* Added mini_fo-merge script to allow merging of storage and base
++	after making modifications.
++
++2005-05-22  root  <mk@mary>
++
++	* Added overlay script that allows to easily mount mini_fo ontop
++	of a given base directory
++
++2005-05-10    <mk@mary>
++
++	* inode.c: xattr functions return -EOPNOSUPP instead of
++          -ENOSUPP, what confuses "ls -l"
++
++	* Changed license from LGPL to GPL.
++
++2005-05-08  root  <mk@mary>
++
++	* Makefile: clean it up and added make install and make
++          uninstall.
++	
++2005-05-06    <mk@mary>
++
++	* merged devel branch back to main. [v0-6-0-pre3]
++
++	* removed unused files print.c and fist_ioctl. [devel-0-0-18]
++
++	* ioctl: removed fist_ioctl stuff, that is not needed for
++          now.
++
++2005-05-03    <mk@mary>
++
++	* file.c: simplified mini_fo_open and mini_fo_setattr using
++          new state changing functions. [devel-0-0-17]
++
++	* inode.c: Fixed getattr state bug (see below) in 2.4 function
++          mini_fo_inode revalidate.
++
++	* inode.c: found an other bug in mini_fo_getattr. States are not
++	  reliable in this function, as a file can be opened, unlinked and
++	  the getattr function called. This results in a deleted dentry
++	  with an inode. Fix is to ignore states and simply use the inode
++	  available.
++
++2005-04-29    <mk@mary>
++
++	* file.c: Bugfix and cleanup in fasync and fsync. [devel-0-0-16]
++
++	* file.c: do not use mini_fo_lock so the generic version is
++          used (I guess).
++
++	* inode.c: getattr, never call getattr on lower files, as this
++          will cause the inum to change.
++
++	* inode.c: rename_reg_file renamed to rename_nondir, as it
++          doesn't matter as long it't not a dir. Removed all
++          rename_dev_file etc. 	  
++
++	* tagged as devel-0-0-15
++
++	* inode.c: added support for chosing support for extended
++          attrs at compile time by XATTR define in mini_fo.h .
++
++	* inode.c: fixed mini_fo_getattr to use mini_fo inode and not
++          lower again, what avoids inode number changes that confused
++          rm again. This is the proper solution.
++
++2005-04-24    <mk@mary>
++
++	* all files: updated Copyright notive to 2005. [devel-0-0-14]
++
++	* inode.c: fixed mini_fo_getattr to not change the inode
++          number, even if lower files change.
++
++	* super.c: fixed a bug that caused deleted base file to show
++          up suddenly after some time, or after creating a special
++          file. The problem was that after some time or after special
++          file creating sync_sb_inodes is called by the vfs, that
++          called our mini_fo_put_inode. There was (wrongly) called
++          __meta_put_lists, that nuked the lists, although the inode
++          was going to continue its life. Moving __meta_put_lists to
++          mini_fo_clear_inode, where an inode is really destroyed,
++          solved the problem.
++
++
++2005-04-23    <mk@mary>
++
++	* state.c, aux.c: more cleaning up and
++          simplifications. [devel-0-0-13] 
++
++	* inode.c: implemented mini_fo_getattr, that was required for
++          2.6 because inode_revalidate has been remove there, and the
++	  old "du" bug returned.
++
++
++2005-04-20    <mk@mary>
++
++	* aux.c: get_neg_sto_dentry(): allow to be called for dentries
++          in state UNMODIFIED, NON_EXISTANT _and_ DELETED.
++
++2005-04-19    <mk@mary>
++
++	* Fixed a bug under 2.6 that caused files deleted via mini_fo
++          not to be deleted properly and therefore the fs filled up
++          untill no memory was left. [devel-0-0-12]
++
++	* Added basic hard link support. This means that creating
++          hardlinks will work, but existing ones will be treated as
++          individual files. [devel-0-0-11]
++
++2005-04-17    <mk@mary>
++
++	* Bugfixes
++
++2005-04-13  root  <mk@mary>
++
++	* Added file state.c for the state transition
++          functions. Doesn't work very well yet, though...
++
++2005-04-12    <mk@mary>
++
++	* Porting to 2.6 started, which is easier than expected, also
++          due to Olivier previous work.
++
++2005-04-08    <mk@mary>
++
++	* Fixed the bug that caused du to return invalid sizes of
++          directory trees. The problem was that
++          mini_fo_inode_revalidate didn't always copy the attributes
++          from the base inode properly.
++
++2005-04-01  Markus Klotzbuecher  <mk@chasey>
++
++	* Merged devel branch back to main trunk and updated the
++          RELEASE notes. This will be 0-6-0-pre1.
++
++2005-03-31  Markus Klotzbuecher  <mk@chasey>
++
++	* Fixed some bugs in rename_reg_file, that only showed up in
++          the kernel compile test. Kernel compiles cleanly ontop of
++          mini_fo, now also make mrproper etc. work. Seems pretty stable.
++
++2005-03-28  Markus Klotzbuecher  <mk@chasey>
++
++	* Many, many directory renaming bugfixes and a lot of other
++          cleanup. Dir renaming seems to work relatively stable.
++
++2005-03-22  Markus Klotzbuecher  <mk@chasey>
++
++	* Finished implementing lightweight directory renaming. Some
++          basic testing indicates it works fine.
++	  Next is to implement testcases for the testsuite and confirm
++          everything is really working ok.
++
++2005-03-18  Markus Klotzbuecher  <mk@chasey>
++
++	* Finished implementing meta.c stuff required for directory
++          renaming.
++
++2005-03-17  Markus Klotzbuecher  <mk@chasey>
++
++	* Fixed all compile warnings + an extremly old bug that
++          somehow crept in while reworking the wol stuff to the META
++          system. Turning on -Werror again... :-)
++
++	* Fixed some bugs in the new rename_reg_file function.
++
++	* Rewrote mini_fo rename and split it into several
++          subfunctions, that handle the different types
++          seperately. Rewrote the regular file function aswell, as it
++          was implemented somewhat inefficient. 
++
++2005-03-16  Markus Klotzbuecher  <mk@chasey>
++
++	* Implemented new META subsystem, removed old WOL stuff in favor 
++	  if it.
++
++	* After some basic testing everything seems ok...
++
++2005-03-11  Markus Klotzbuecher  <mk@chasey>
++
++	* Renaming a non regular file caused trouble because I always
++	  tried to copy the contents. Now I only do this for regular
++	  files. mini_fo_rename still isn't implemented properly, renaming
++	  of device files, symlinks etc. results in a empty regular file
++	  instead of the proper type.
++	
++	* Directory renaming suddenly works! What a surprise! I guess
++          this is because renaming is implemented as making a copy and
++          removing the original. Still this might not work
++          everywhere...
++
++2005-03-09  Markus Klotzbuecher  <mk@chasey>
++
++	* Bugfix, when a mini_fo directory that exists in storage
++  	  (state: MODIFIED, CREATED and DEL_REWRITTEN) is deleted, a
++  	  possibly existing WOL file contained in it needs to be
++  	  deleted too.
++
++	* Starting cleanup: defined state names in order to get rid of
++          the state numbers.
++
++2005-03-08  Markus Klotzbuecher  <mk@chasey>
++	
++	* Makefile fix, fist_ioctl was built against wrong sources if ARCH=um
++
++	* Fixed a bug in dentry.c, mini_fo_d_hash. In state 4 =
++          DEL_REWRITTEN the hash was calculated from the base dentry,
++          which was wrong and and caused assertions in
++          __mini_fo_hidden_dentry to fail.
++
++2005-02-21    <mk@mary>
++
++	* Implemented directory deleting (inode.c)
++
++	* main.c: made mini_fo_parse_options a little more robust.
++
++2004-12-22    <mk@mary>
++
++	* Makefile cleanup and uml stuff, removed unneccessary files
++
++	* Created a new and hopefully more informative README
++
++	* CHANGELOG: created a new CHANGELOG and added old entries reversely
++
++
++2004-10-24 Gleb Natapov <gleb@nbase.co.il>
++
++	* Fix: owner and group where not correctly copied from base to
++          storage. 
++
++
++2004-10-05 Gleb Natapov <gleb@nbase.co.il>
++
++	* Implementation of fsync, fasync and lock mini_fo functions.
++	
++
++2004-09-29 Bob Lee <bob@pantasys.com>
++
++	* Fix of a serious pointer bug
++	
++
++2004-09-28 Gleb Natapov <gleb@nbase.co.il>
++
++	* Implementation of mini_fo_mknod and mini_fo_rename, support
++          for device files.

++README for the mini_fo overlay file system
++=========================================
++
++
++WHAT IS MINI_FO?
++----------------
++
++mini_fo is a virtual kernel file system that can make read-only
++file systems writable. This is done by redirecting modifying operations
++to a writeable location called "storage directory", and leaving the
++original data in the "base directory" untouched. When reading, the
++file system merges the modifed and original data so that only the
++newest versions will appear. This occurs transparently to the user,
++who can access the data like on any other read-write file system.
++
++Base and storage directories may be located on the same or on
++different partitions and may be of different file system types. While
++the storage directory obviously needs to be writable, the base may or
++may not be writable, what doesn't matter as it will no be modified
++anyway.
++
++
++WHAT IS GOOD FOR?
++-----------------
++
++The primary purpose of the mini_fo file system is to allow easy
++software updates to embedded systems, that often store their root
++file system in a read-only flash file system, but there are many
++more as for example sandboxing, or for allowing live-cds to
++permanently store information.
++
++
++BUILDING
++--------
++This should be simple. Adjust the Makefile to point to the correct
++kernel headers you want to build the module for. Then:
++
++    # make
++
++should build "mini_fo.o" for a 2.4 kernel or "mini_fo.ko" for a 2.6
++kernel.
++
++If you are building the module for you current kernel, you can install
++the module (as root):
++
++    # make install
++
++or uninstall with
++
++    # make uninstall
++
++
++USING THE FILE SYSTEM
++--------------------
++
++the general mount syntax is:
++
++   mount -t mini_fo -o base=<base directory>,sto=<storage directory>\
++                            <base directory> <mount point>
++
++Example:
++
++You have mounted a cdrom to /mnt/cdrom and want to modifiy some files
++on it:
++
++load the module (as root)
++    
++    # insmod mini_fo.o for a 2.4 kernel or
++ 
++    # insmod mini_fo.ko for a 2.6 kernel
++
++
++create a storage dir in tmp and a mountpoint for mini_fo:
++
++    # mkdir /tmp/sto
++    # mkdir /mnt/mini_fo
++
++and mount the mini_fo file system:
++
++    # mount -t mini_fo -o base=/mnt/cdrom,sto=/tmp/sto /mnt/cdrom /mnt/mini_fo
++
++
++Now the data stored on the cd can be accessed via the mini_fo
++mountpoint just like any read-write file system, files can be modified
++and deleted, new ones can be created and so on. When done unmount the
++file system:
++
++    # unmount /mnt/mini_fo
++
++Note that if the file system is mounted again using the same storage
++file system, of course it will appear in the modified state again. If
++you remount it using an new empty storage directory, it will be
++unmodified. Therefore by executing:
++
++    # cd /tmp/sto
++    # rm -rf *
++
++you can nuke all the changes you made to the original file system. But
++ remember NEVER do this while the mini_fo file system is mounted!
++
++
++Alternatively you can use the mini_fo-overlay bash script, that
++simplifies managing mini_fo mounts. See TOOLS Section.
++
++
++TOOLS
++-----
++
++mini_fo-merge (experimental):
++
++This is a bash script that will merge changes contained in the storage
++directory back to the base directory. This allows mini_fo to function
++as a cache file system by overlaying a slow (network, ...) file system
++and using a fast (ramdisk, ...) as storage. When done, changes can be
++merged back to the (slow) base with mini_fo-merge. See "mini_fo-merge
++-h" for details.
++
++It can be usefull for merging changes back after a successfull test
++(patches, software updates...)
++
++
++mini_fo-overlay:
++
++This bash script simplifies managing one or more mini_fo mounts. For
++overlaying a directory called "basedir1", you can just call:
++
++    # mini_fo-overlay basedir1
++
++This will mount mini_fo with "basedir1" as base, "/tmp/sto-basedir1/"
++as storage to "/mnt/mini_fo-basedir1/". It has more options though,
++type "mini_fo-overlay -h" for details.
++
++
++DOCUMENTATION, REPORTING BUGS, GETTING HELP
++-------------------------------------------
++
++Please visit the mini_fo project page at:
++
++http://www.denx.de/twiki/bin/view/Know/MiniFOHome
++
++
++WARNINGS
++--------
++
++Never modify the base or the storage directorys while the mini_fo
++file system is mounted, or you might crash you system. Simply accessing
++and reading should not cause any trouble.
++
++Exporting a mini_fo mount point via NFS has not been tested, and may
++or may not work.
++
++Check the RELEASE_NOTES for details on bugs and features.

++Release:	mini_fo-0.6.1 (v0-6-1)
++Date:		21.09.2005
++
++
++Changes:
++--------
++v0-6-1:
++
++- bugfixes (see ChangeLog)
++
++- two helper scripts "mini_fo_merge" and "mini_fo_overlay" (see
++  README for details).
++
++v0-6-0:
++
++- Support for 2.4 and 2.6 (see Makefile)
++
++- Partial hard link support (creating works as expected, but already
++  existing links in the base file system will be treated as if they
++  were individual files).
++
++- Various bugfixes and cleanups.
++
++
++v0-6-0-pre1:
++
++- This is mini_fo-0-6-0-pre1! This release is a complete rewrite of
++  many vital mini_fo parts such as the old whiteout list code which
++  has been replaced by the new META subsystem.
++
++- Light weight directory renaming implemented. This means if a
++  directory is renamed via the mini_fo filesystem this will no longer
++  result in a complete copy in storage, instead only one empty
++  directory will be created. All base filed contained in the original
++  directory stay there until modified.
++
++- Special files (creating, renaming, deleting etc.) now working.
++
++- Many bugfixes and cleanup, mini_fo is now a lot more stable.
++
++
++v0-5-10:
++
++- Final release of the 0-5-* versions. Next will be a complete rewrite
++  of many features. This release contains several bugfixes related to
++  directory renaming.
++
++
++v0-5-10-pre6:
++
++- Lots of cleanup and several bugfixes related to directory deleting
++
++- Directory renaming suddenly works, what is most likely due to the
++  fact tha that "mv" is smart: if the classic rename doesn't work it
++  will assume that source and target file are on different fs and will
++  copy the directory and try to remove the source directory. Until
++  directory removing wasn't implemented, it would fail to do this and
++  rollback.
++  So, directory renaming works for now, but it doesn't yet do what you
++  would expect from a overlay fs, so use with care.
++
++
++v0-5-10-pre5:
++
++- implemented directory deleting 
++- made parsing of mount options more stable
++- New format of mount options! (See README)
++- I can't reproduce the unknown panic with 2.4.25 anymore, so I'll
++  happily assume it never existed!
++
++
++Implemented features:
++---------------------
++
++- creating hard links (see BUGS on already existing hard links)	
++- lightweight directory renaming
++- renaming device files, pipes, sockets, etc.	
++- creating, renaming, deleting of special files 
++- deleting directorys
++- general directory reading (simple "ls" )
++- creating files in existing directorys
++- creating directorys
++- renaming files.
++- reading and writing files (involves opening)
++- appending to files (creates copy in storage)
++- deleting files
++- llseek works too, what allows editors to work
++- persistency (a deleted file stay deleted over remounts)
++- use of symbolic links
++- creating of device files
++
++
++Not (yet) implemented features:
++-------------------------------
++
++- full hard link support.
++
++
++
++BUGS:
++-----
++
++Hard links in the base file system will be treated as individual
++files, not as links to one inode.
++
++The main problem with hard links isn't allowing to create them, but
++their pure existence. If you modify a base hard link, the changes made
++will only show up on this link, the other link will remain in the
++original state. I hope to fix this someday. Please note that this does
++not effect the special hard links '.' and '..', that are handled
++seperately by the lower fs.

++

++          minixfs or pramfs.

++2005-06-30  Eric Lammerts <eric@lammerts.org>
++
++	* fix for an oops when overwriting a binary thats beeing

++
++2005-06-09    <mk@mary>
++
++	* Renamed overlay to mini_fo-overlay.
++
++	* Added mini_fo-merge script to allow merging of storage and base
++	after making modifications.
++
++2005-05-22  root  <mk@mary>
++
++	* Added overlay script that allows to easily mount mini_fo ontop
++	of a given base directory
++
++2005-05-10    <mk@mary>
++
++	* inode.c: xattr functions return -EOPNOSUPP instead of
++          -ENOSUPP, what confuses "ls -l"
++
++	* Changed license from LGPL to GPL.
++
++2005-05-08  root  <mk@mary>
++
++	* Makefile: clean it up and added make install and make
++          uninstall.
++	
++2005-05-06    <mk@mary>
++
++	* merged devel branch back to main. [v0-6-0-pre3]
++
++	* removed unused files print.c and fist_ioctl. [devel-0-0-18]
++
++	* ioctl: removed fist_ioctl stuff, that is not needed for
++          now.
++
++2005-05-03    <mk@mary>
++
++	* file.c: simplified mini_fo_open and mini_fo_setattr using
++          new state changing functions. [devel-0-0-17]
++
++	* inode.c: Fixed getattr state bug (see below) in 2.4 function
++          mini_fo_inode revalidate.
++
++	* inode.c: found an other bug in mini_fo_getattr. States are not
++	  reliable in this function, as a file can be opened, unlinked and
++	  the getattr function called. This results in a deleted dentry
++	  with an inode. Fix is to ignore states and simply use the inode
++	  available.
++
++2005-04-29    <mk@mary>
++
++	* file.c: Bugfix and cleanup in fasync and fsync. [devel-0-0-16]
++
++	* file.c: do not use mini_fo_lock so the generic version is
++          used (I guess).
++
++	* inode.c: getattr, never call getattr on lower files, as this
++          will cause the inum to change.
++
++	* inode.c: rename_reg_file renamed to rename_nondir, as it
++          doesn't matter as long it't not a dir. Removed all
++          rename_dev_file etc. 	  
++
++	* tagged as devel-0-0-15
++
++	* inode.c: added support for chosing support for extended
++          attrs at compile time by XATTR define in mini_fo.h .
++
++	* inode.c: fixed mini_fo_getattr to use mini_fo inode and not
++          lower again, what avoids inode number changes that confused
++          rm again. This is the proper solution.
++
++2005-04-24    <mk@mary>
++
++	* all files: updated Copyright notive to 2005. [devel-0-0-14]
++
++	* inode.c: fixed mini_fo_getattr to not change the inode
++          number, even if lower files change.
++
++	* super.c: fixed a bug that caused deleted base file to show
++          up suddenly after some time, or after creating a special
++          file. The problem was that after some time or after special
++          file creating sync_sb_inodes is called by the vfs, that
++          called our mini_fo_put_inode. There was (wrongly) called
++          __meta_put_lists, that nuked the lists, although the inode
++          was going to continue its life. Moving __meta_put_lists to
++          mini_fo_clear_inode, where an inode is really destroyed,
++          solved the problem.
++
++
++2005-04-23    <mk@mary>
++
++	* state.c, aux.c: more cleaning up and
++          simplifications. [devel-0-0-13] 
++
++	* inode.c: implemented mini_fo_getattr, that was required for
++          2.6 because inode_revalidate has been remove there, and the
++	  old "du" bug returned.
++
++
++2005-04-20    <mk@mary>
++
++	* aux.c: get_neg_sto_dentry(): allow to be called for dentries
++          in state UNMODIFIED, NON_EXISTANT _and_ DELETED.
++
++2005-04-19    <mk@mary>
++
++	* Fixed a bug under 2.6 that caused files deleted via mini_fo
++          not to be deleted properly and therefore the fs filled up
++          untill no memory was left. [devel-0-0-12]
++
++	* Added basic hard link support. This means that creating
++          hardlinks will work, but existing ones will be treated as
++          individual files. [devel-0-0-11]
++
++2005-04-17    <mk@mary>
++
++	* Bugfixes
++
++2005-04-13  root  <mk@mary>
++
++	* Added file state.c for the state transition
++          functions. Doesn't work very well yet, though...
++
++2005-04-12    <mk@mary>
++
++	* Porting to 2.6 started, which is easier than expected, also
++          due to Olivier previous work.
++
++2005-04-08    <mk@mary>
++
++	* Fixed the bug that caused du to return invalid sizes of
++          directory trees. The problem was that
++          mini_fo_inode_revalidate didn't always copy the attributes
++          from the base inode properly.
++
++2005-04-01  Markus Klotzbuecher  <mk@chasey>
++
++	* Merged devel branch back to main trunk and updated the
++          RELEASE notes. This will be 0-6-0-pre1.
++
++2005-03-31  Markus Klotzbuecher  <mk@chasey>
++
++	* Fixed some bugs in rename_reg_file, that only showed up in
++          the kernel compile test. Kernel compiles cleanly ontop of
++          mini_fo, now also make mrproper etc. work. Seems pretty stable.
++
++2005-03-28  Markus Klotzbuecher  <mk@chasey>
++
++	* Many, many directory renaming bugfixes and a lot of other
++          cleanup. Dir renaming seems to work relatively stable.
++
++2005-03-22  Markus Klotzbuecher  <mk@chasey>
++
++	* Finished implementing lightweight directory renaming. Some
++          basic testing indicates it works fine.
++	  Next is to implement testcases for the testsuite and confirm
++          everything is really working ok.
++
++2005-03-18  Markus Klotzbuecher  <mk@chasey>
++
++	* Finished implementing meta.c stuff required for directory
++          renaming.
++
++2005-03-17  Markus Klotzbuecher  <mk@chasey>
++
++	* Fixed all compile warnings + an extremly old bug that
++          somehow crept in while reworking the wol stuff to the META
++          system. Turning on -Werror again... :-)
++
++	* Fixed some bugs in the new rename_reg_file function.
++
++	* Rewrote mini_fo rename and split it into several
++          subfunctions, that handle the different types
++          seperately. Rewrote the regular file function aswell, as it
++          was implemented somewhat inefficient. 
++
++2005-03-16  Markus Klotzbuecher  <mk@chasey>
++
++	* Implemented new META subsystem, removed old WOL stuff in favor 
++	  if it.
++
++	* After some basic testing everything seems ok...
++
++2005-03-11  Markus Klotzbuecher  <mk@chasey>
++
++	* Renaming a non regular file caused trouble because I always
++	  tried to copy the contents. Now I only do this for regular
++	  files. mini_fo_rename still isn't implemented properly, renaming
++	  of device files, symlinks etc. results in a empty regular file
++	  instead of the proper type.
++	
++	* Directory renaming suddenly works! What a surprise! I guess
++          this is because renaming is implemented as making a copy and
++          removing the original. Still this might not work
++          everywhere...
++
++2005-03-09  Markus Klotzbuecher  <mk@chasey>
++
++	* Bugfix, when a mini_fo directory that exists in storage
++  	  (state: MODIFIED, CREATED and DEL_REWRITTEN) is deleted, a
++  	  possibly existing WOL file contained in it needs to be
++  	  deleted too.
++
++	* Starting cleanup: defined state names in order to get rid of
++          the state numbers.
++
++2005-03-08  Markus Klotzbuecher  <mk@chasey>
++	
++	* Makefile fix, fist_ioctl was built against wrong sources if ARCH=um
++
++	* Fixed a bug in dentry.c, mini_fo_d_hash. In state 4 =
++          DEL_REWRITTEN the hash was calculated from the base dentry,
++          which was wrong and and caused assertions in
++          __mini_fo_hidden_dentry to fail.
++
++2005-02-21    <mk@mary>
++
++	* Implemented directory deleting (inode.c)
++
++	* main.c: made mini_fo_parse_options a little more robust.
++
++2004-12-22    <mk@mary>
++
++	* Makefile cleanup and uml stuff, removed unneccessary files
++
++	* Created a new and hopefully more informative README
++
++	* CHANGELOG: created a new CHANGELOG and added old entries reversely
++
++
++2004-10-24 Gleb Natapov <gleb@nbase.co.il>
++
++	* Fix: owner and group where not correctly copied from base to
++          storage. 
++
++
++2004-10-05 Gleb Natapov <gleb@nbase.co.il>
++
++	* Implementation of fsync, fasync and lock mini_fo functions.
++	
++
++2004-09-29 Bob Lee <bob@pantasys.com>
++
++	* Fix of a serious pointer bug
++	
++
++2004-09-28 Gleb Natapov <gleb@nbase.co.il>
++
++	* Implementation of mini_fo_mknod and mini_fo_rename, support
++          for device files.

++Options:
++     -b <base dir>
++          the directory of the base file system.
++
++     -s <storage dir>
++          the directory of the storage file system.
++
++     -d   dry run, will not change anything and print the commands that
++          would be executed.
++
++     -t   tmp dir for storing temporary file. default: $TMP

++Usage: $0 [-s suffix] [-d sto_dir_dir] [-m mount point] base_dir
++Version 0.1
++
++This script overlays the given base directory using the mini_fo file
++system. If only the base directory base_dir is given, $0 
++will use a storage directory called "sto-<base_dir_name>" in $STO_DIR,
++and mount point "mini_fo-<base_dir_dir>" in $MNT_DIR.
++
++Options:
++     -s <suffix>
++          add given suffix to storage directory and the mount
++          point. This is usefull for overlaying one base directory
++          several times and avoiding conflicts with storage directory
++          names and mount points.
++
++     -d <sto_dir_dir>
++          change the directory in which the storage directory will be
++          created (default is currently "$STO_DIR".
++
++     -m <mount point>
++          use an alternative directory to create the mini_fo
++          mountpoint (default is currently "$MNT_DIR".

++README for the mini_fo overlay file system
++=========================================
++
++
++WHAT IS MINI_FO?
++----------------
++
++mini_fo is a virtual kernel file system that can make read-only
++file systems writable. This is done by redirecting modifying operations
++to a writeable location called "storage directory", and leaving the
++original data in the "base directory" untouched. When reading, the
++file system merges the modifed and original data so that only the
++newest versions will appear. This occurs transparently to the user,
++who can access the data like on any other read-write file system.
++
++Base and storage directories may be located on the same or on
++different partitions and may be of different file system types. While
++the storage directory obviously needs to be writable, the base may or
++may not be writable, what doesn't matter as it will no be modified
++anyway.
++
++
++WHAT IS GOOD FOR?
++-----------------
++
++The primary purpose of the mini_fo file system is to allow easy
++software updates to embedded systems, that often store their root
++file system in a read-only flash file system, but there are many
++more as for example sandboxing, or for allowing live-cds to
++permanently store information.
++
++
++BUILDING
++--------
++This should be simple. Adjust the Makefile to point to the correct
++kernel headers you want to build the module for. Then:
++
++    # make
++
++should build "mini_fo.o" for a 2.4 kernel or "mini_fo.ko" for a 2.6
++kernel.
++
++If you are building the module for you current kernel, you can install
++the module (as root):
++
++    # make install
++
++or uninstall with
++
++    # make uninstall
++
++
++USING THE FILE SYSTEM
++--------------------
++
++the general mount syntax is:
++
++   mount -t mini_fo -o base=<base directory>,sto=<storage directory>\
++                            <base directory> <mount point>
++
++Example:
++
++You have mounted a cdrom to /mnt/cdrom and want to modifiy some files
++on it:
++
++load the module (as root)
++    
++    # insmod mini_fo.o for a 2.4 kernel or
++ 
++    # insmod mini_fo.ko for a 2.6 kernel
++
++
++create a storage dir in tmp and a mountpoint for mini_fo:
++
++    # mkdir /tmp/sto
++    # mkdir /mnt/mini_fo
++
++and mount the mini_fo file system:
++
++    # mount -t mini_fo -o base=/mnt/cdrom,sto=/tmp/sto /mnt/cdrom /mnt/mini_fo
++
++
++Now the data stored on the cd can be accessed via the mini_fo
++mountpoint just like any read-write file system, files can be modified
++and deleted, new ones can be created and so on. When done unmount the
++file system:
++
++    # unmount /mnt/mini_fo
++
++Note that if the file system is mounted again using the same storage
++file system, of course it will appear in the modified state again. If
++you remount it using an new empty storage directory, it will be
++unmodified. Therefore by executing:
++
++    # cd /tmp/sto
++    # rm -rf *
++
++you can nuke all the changes you made to the original file system. But
++ remember NEVER do this while the mini_fo file system is mounted!
++
++
++Alternatively you can use the mini_fo-overlay bash script, that
++simplifies managing mini_fo mounts. See TOOLS Section.
++
++
++TOOLS
++-----
++
++mini_fo-merge (experimental):
++
++This is a bash script that will merge changes contained in the storage
++directory back to the base directory. This allows mini_fo to function
++as a cache file system by overlaying a slow (network, ...) file system
++and using a fast (ramdisk, ...) as storage. When done, changes can be
++merged back to the (slow) base with mini_fo-merge. See "mini_fo-merge
++-h" for details.
++
++It can be usefull for merging changes back after a successfull test
++(patches, software updates...)
++
++
++mini_fo-overlay:
++
++This bash script simplifies managing one or more mini_fo mounts. For
++overlaying a directory called "basedir1", you can just call:
++
++    # mini_fo-overlay basedir1
++
++This will mount mini_fo with "basedir1" as base, "/tmp/sto-basedir1/"
++as storage to "/mnt/mini_fo-basedir1/". It has more options though,
++type "mini_fo-overlay -h" for details.
++
++
++DOCUMENTATION, REPORTING BUGS, GETTING HELP
++-------------------------------------------
++
++Please visit the mini_fo project page at:
++
++http://www.denx.de/twiki/bin/view/Know/MiniFOHome
++
++
++WARNINGS
++--------
++
++Never modify the base or the storage directorys while the mini_fo
++file system is mounted, or you might crash you system. Simply accessing
++and reading should not cause any trouble.
++
++Exporting a mini_fo mount point via NFS has not been tested, and may
++or may not work.
++
++Check the RELEASE_NOTES for details on bugs and features.

++Release:	mini_fo-0.6.1 (v0-6-1)
++Date:		21.09.2005
++
++
++Changes:
++--------
++v0-6-1:
++
++- bugfixes (see ChangeLog)
++
++- two helper scripts "mini_fo_merge" and "mini_fo_overlay" (see
++  README for details).
++
++v0-6-0:
++
++- Support for 2.4 and 2.6 (see Makefile)
++
++- Partial hard link support (creating works as expected, but already
++  existing links in the base file system will be treated as if they
++  were individual files).
++
++- Various bugfixes and cleanups.
++
++
++v0-6-0-pre1:
++
++- This is mini_fo-0-6-0-pre1! This release is a complete rewrite of
++  many vital mini_fo parts such as the old whiteout list code which
++  has been replaced by the new META subsystem.
++
++- Light weight directory renaming implemented. This means if a
++  directory is renamed via the mini_fo filesystem this will no longer
++  result in a complete copy in storage, instead only one empty
++  directory will be created. All base filed contained in the original
++  directory stay there until modified.
++
++- Special files (creating, renaming, deleting etc.) now working.
++
++- Many bugfixes and cleanup, mini_fo is now a lot more stable.
++
++
++v0-5-10:
++
++- Final release of the 0-5-* versions. Next will be a complete rewrite
++  of many features. This release contains several bugfixes related to
++  directory renaming.
++
++
++v0-5-10-pre6:
++
++- Lots of cleanup and several bugfixes related to directory deleting
++
++- Directory renaming suddenly works, what is most likely due to the
++  fact tha that "mv" is smart: if the classic rename doesn't work it
++  will assume that source and target file are on different fs and will
++  copy the directory and try to remove the source directory. Until
++  directory removing wasn't implemented, it would fail to do this and
++  rollback.
++  So, directory renaming works for now, but it doesn't yet do what you
++  would expect from a overlay fs, so use with care.
++
++
++v0-5-10-pre5:
++
++- implemented directory deleting 
++- made parsing of mount options more stable
++- New format of mount options! (See README)
++- I can't reproduce the unknown panic with 2.4.25 anymore, so I'll
++  happily assume it never existed!
++
++
++Implemented features:
++---------------------
++
++- creating hard links (see BUGS on already existing hard links)	
++- lightweight directory renaming
++- renaming device files, pipes, sockets, etc.	
++- creating, renaming, deleting of special files 
++- deleting directorys
++- general directory reading (simple "ls" )
++- creating files in existing directorys
++- creating directorys
++- renaming files.
++- reading and writing files (involves opening)
++- appending to files (creates copy in storage)
++- deleting files
++- llseek works too, what allows editors to work
++- persistency (a deleted file stay deleted over remounts)
++- use of symbolic links
++- creating of device files
++
++
++Not (yet) implemented features:
++-------------------------------
++
++- full hard link support.
++
++
++
++BUGS:
++-----
++
++Hard links in the base file system will be treated as individual
++files, not as links to one inode.
++
++The main problem with hard links isn't allowing to create them, but
++their pure existence. If you modify a base hard link, the changes made
++will only show up on this link, the other link will remain in the
++original state. I hope to fix this someday. Please note that this does
++not effect the special hard links '.' and '..', that are handled
++seperately by the lower fs.
