Linux supports mounting over non-empty directories by default. In Solaris this is not the case and -O option is required for zfs mount to mount a zfs filesystem over a non-empty directory. For compatibility, I've added support for -O option to mount zfs filesystems over non-empty directories if the user wants to, just like in Solaris. I've defined MS_OVERLAY to record it in the flags variable if the -O option is supplied. The flags variable passes through a few functions and its checked before performing the empty directory check in zfs_mount function. If -O is given, the check is not performed.

Native ZFS for Linux! ZFS is an advanced file system and volume manager which was originally developed for Solaris. It has been successfully ported to FreeBSD and now there is a functional Linux ZFS kernel port too. The port currently includes a fully functional and stable SPA, DMU, and ZVOL with a ZFS Posix Layer (ZPL) on the way!
$ ./configure
$ make pkg
