Multiple lower layers - presedence?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The current documentation of overlayfs states the following:


Multiple lower layers
---------------------

Multiple lower layers can now be given using the the colon (":") as a
separator character between the directory names.  For example:

  mount -t overlay overlay -olowerdir=/lower1:/lower2:/lower3 /merged

As the example shows, "upperdir=" and "workdir=" may be omitted.  In that 
case
the overlay will be read-only.


Consider the case /lower1/A and /lower2/A exist.
What is part of the api - that it is undefined or that one takes presedence 
over the other?
It would be nice to have this clarified in the documentation.

Thanks,
Fabian
