  *	@inode contains a pointer to the inode.
  *	@secid contains a pointer to the location where result will be saved.
  *	In case of failure, @secid will be set to zero.
+ * @inode_copy_up:
+ *	Appropriately label the destination inode when a unioned file is copied
+ *	up from a lower layer to the union/overlay layer.
+ *	@src indicates the file that is being copied up.
+ *	@dst indicates the file that has being created by the copy up.

+ * @inode_copy_up_xattr:
+ *	Filter/modify the xattrs being copied up when a unioned file is copied
+ *	up from a lower layer to the union/overlay layer.
+ *	@src indicates the file that is being copied up.
+ *	@dst indicates the file that has being created by the copy up.
+ *	@name indicates the name of the xattr.
+ *	@value, *@size indicate the payload of the xattr.
+ *	Returns 0 to accept the xattr, 1 to discard the xattr or a negative
+ *	error code to abort the copy up.  The xattr buffer must be at least
