Title: UNIONFS WITH OFFSETS
Description: The Union File System supports offset strings to allow
directories to appear at an offset below the union mount
point. These offsets work in many cases (open, close, read,
write, etc.), but there are some problems:
1. The current test case at apps/examples/unionfs uses an
offset string for one file system, but the offset string
is matched by a a directory in the other file system.
This causes many problems with the offset file system to
be obscured.
2. If both contained file systems are offset, then stat(),
opendir(), readdir() etc. fail.
3. The offsets do not work for directory operations on their
the top level directory.
Status: Open
Priority: High-ish
