Kostik, I think your patch is a good idea and you can consider it reviewed by me if you'd like. I also did a quick test wth unionfs and it did not accumulate opens, so it doesn't seem to suffer from this problem. (It does have issues, as noted by the BUGS section of the mount_unionfs man page.) rickhome | help
