Whiteout index entries are used as an indication that an exported overlay file handle should be treated as stale (i.e. after unlink of the overlay inode). Check on mount that whiteout index entries have a name that looks like a valid file handle and cleanup invalid index entries. For whiteout index entries, do not check that they also have valid origin fh and nlink xattr, because those xattr do not exist for a whiteout index entry.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
