16 ===================================================================
17 There several other patches in aufs3. They are all
18 optional. When you meet some problems, they will help you. You can find them
19 in the documentation directory.
20
21 - aufs3-loopback.patch
22 Supports a nested loopback mount in a branch-fs. This patch is
23 unnecessary until aufs produces a message such like "you may want to try
24 another patch for loopback file".
25
26 - vfs-ino.patch
27 Modifies a system global kernel internal function get_next_ino() in
28 order to stop assigning 0 for an inode-number. Not directly related to
29 aufs, but recommended generally.
30
31 - tmpfs-ibitmap.patch
32 Keeps the tmpfs inode number as the lowest value. Effective to reduce
33 the size of aufs XINO files for tmpfs branch. Also it prevents the
34 duplication of inode number, which is important for backup
35 tools, aubrsync or other utilities. When you find aufs XINO files for
36 tmpfs branch growing too much, try this patch.
