One example could be overlayfs. So you might do, say:
ufd = open("/overlay", O_PATH);
fsfd = fsopen("overlay", 0);
fsconfig(fsfd, fsconfig_set_path, "lowerdir", "/src", AT_FDCWD);
fsconfig(fsfd, fsconfig_set_path, "upperdir", "upper", ufd);
fsconfig(fsfd, fsconfig_set_path, "workdir", "scratch", ufd);
mfd = fsmount(fsfd, 0, 0);
move_mount(fsfd, "", AT_FDCWD, "/mnt", MOVE_MOUNT_F_EMPTY_PATH);
which would allow you to specify the "sources" using dirfds.
Another possibility is could be ext4 with separate journal:
fsfd = fsopen("ext4", 0);
fsconfig(fsfd, fsconfig_set_path, "source", "/dev/sda1", AT_FDCWD);
fsconfig(fsfd, fsconfig_set_path, "journal_path", "/dev/sda2", AT_FDCWD);
mfd = fsmount(fsfd, 0, 0);
move_mount(fsfd, "", AT_FDCWD, "/mnt", MOVE_MOUNT_F_EMPTY_PATH);
And then there's bcachefs which suggests on the webpage:
mount -t bcachefs /dev/sda1:/dev/sdb1 /mnt
but you could then do:
fsfd = fsopen("bcachefs", 0);
fsconfig(fsfd, fsconfig_set_path, "source", "/dev/sda1", AT_FDCWD);
fsconfig(fsfd, fsconfig_set_path, "source", "/dev/sdb2", AT_FDCWD);
mfd = fsmount(fsfd, 0, 0);
move_mount(fsfd, "", AT_FDCWD, "/mnt", MOVE_MOUNT_F_EMPTY_PATH);
One thing I'm not certain of is whether I should allow multiple values to the
same key name, or whether I should require that each key be labelled
differently, possibly something like:
fsconfig(fsfd, fsconfig_set_path, "source", "/dev/sda1", AT_FDCWD);
fsconfig(fsfd, fsconfig_set_path, "source.1", "/dev/sdb2", AT_FDCWD);
