49 * Null Layer
51 * (See mount_null(8) for more information.)
53 * The null layer duplicates a portion of the file system
54 * name space under a new name. In this respect, it is
55 * similar to the loopback file system. It differs from
56 * the loopback fs in two respects: it is implemented using
57 * a stackable layers techniques, and its "null-node"s stack above
58 * all lower-layer vnodes, not just over directory vnodes.
60 * The null layer has two purposes. First, it serves as a demonstration
61 * of layering by proving a layer which does nothing. (It actually
62 * does everything the loopback file system does, which is slightly
63 * more than nothing.) Second, the null layer can serve as a prototype
64 * layer. Since it provides all necessary layer framework,
65 * new file system layers can be created very easily be starting
66 * with a null layer.
68 * The remainder of this man page examines the null layer as a basis
69 * for constructing new layers.
72 * INSTANTIATING NEW NULL LAYERS
74 * New null layers are created with mount_null(8).
75 * Mount_null(8) takes two arguments, the pathname
76 * of the lower vfs (target-pn) and the pathname where the null
77 * layer will appear in the namespace (alias-pn). After
78 * the null layer is put into place, the contents
79 * of target-pn subtree will be aliased under alias-pn.
82 * OPERATION OF A NULL LAYER
84 * The null layer is the minimum file system layer,
85 * simply bypassing all possible operations to the lower layer
86 * for processing there. The majority of its activity used to center
87 * on a so-called bypass routine, through which nullfs vnodes
88 * passed on operation to their underlying peer.
90 * However, with the current implementation nullfs doesn't have any private
91 * vnodes, it rather relies on DragonFly's namecache API. That gives a much
92 * more lightweight null layer, as namecache structures are pure data, with
93 * no private operations, so there is no need of subtle dispatching routines.
95 * Unlike the old code, this implementation is not a general skeleton overlay
96 * filesystem: to get more comprehensive overlaying, we will need vnode
97 * operation dispatch. Other overlay filesystems, like unionfs might be
98 * able to get on with a hybrid solution: overlay some vnodes, and rely
99 * on namecache API for the rest.
