>Description:
mounting a tree with mount_nullfs does not work as expected if the
filesystem has other nullfs filesystems mounted below. The files from the tree
itself show up, but not the files from mountpoints under the tree. See below for
an example.
Expected behaviour would be that all mountpoints from the nullfs mount show up
on the tree that it's mounted on.
>How-To-Repeat:
My original use-case:
# mkdir -p testdir shares/testdir somejail/shares
# touch testdir/{moo,cow}
# ls testdir
cow moo
# mount_nullfs -o ro testdir shares/testdir
# mount_nullfs -o ro shares somejail/shares
# ls shares/testdir/
cow moo
# ls somejail/shares/testdir/
# ^^^^ no files here
