 Overlay Filesystem
 ==================
 
 This document describes a prototype for a new approach to providing
 overlay-filesystem functionality in Linux (sometimes referred to as
 union-filesystems).  An overlay-filesystem tries to present a
 filesystem which is the result over overlaying one filesystem on top
 of the other.
 
 
 Overlay objects
 ---------------
 
 The overlay filesystem approach is 'hybrid', because the objects that
 appear in the filesystem do not always appear to belong to that filesystem.
 In many cases, an object accessed in the union will be indistinguishable
 from accessing the corresponding object from the original filesystem.
 This is most obvious from the 'st_dev' field returned by stat(2).
 
 While directories will report an st_dev from the overlay-filesystem,
 non-directory objects may report an st_dev from the lower filesystem or
 upper filesystem that is providing the object.  Similarly st_ino will
 only be unique when combined with st_dev, and both of these can change
 over the lifetime of a non-directory object.  Many applications and
 tools ignore these values and will not be affected.
 
 In the special case of all overlay layers on the same underlying
 filesystem, all objects will report an st_dev from the overlay
 filesystem and st_ino from the underlying filesystem.  This will
 make the overlay mount more compliant with filesystem scanners and
 overlay objects will be distinguishable from the corresponding
 objects in the original filesystem.
 
 On 64bit systems, even if all overlay layers are not on the same
 underlying filesystem, the same compliant behavior could be achieved
 with the "xino" feature.  The "xino" feature composes a unique object
 identifier from the real object st_ino and an underlying fsid index.
 The "xino" feature uses the high inode number bits for fsid, because the
 underlying filesystems rarely use the high inode number bits.  In case
 the underlying inode number does overflow into the high xino bits, overlay
 filesystem will fall back to the non xino behavior for that inode.
 
 The "xino" feature can be enabled with the "-o xino=on" overlay mount option.
 If all underlying filesystems support NFS file handles, the value of st_ino
 for overlay filesystem objects is not only unique, but also persistent over
 the lifetime of the filesystem.  The "-o xino=auto" overlay mount option
 enables the "xino" feature only if the persistent st_ino requirement is met.
 
 The following table summarizes what can be expected in different overlay
 configurations.

 [*] nfsd v3 readdirplus verifies d_ino == i_ino. i_ino is exposed via several
 /proc files, such as /proc/locks and /proc/self/fdinfo/<fd> of an inotify
 file descriptor.
 
 Upper and Lower
 ---------------
 
 An overlay filesystem combines two filesystems - an 'upper' filesystem
 and a 'lower' filesystem.  When a name exists in both filesystems, the
 object in the 'upper' filesystem is visible while the object in the
 'lower' filesystem is either hidden or, in the case of directories,
 merged with the 'upper' object.
 
 It would be more correct to refer to an upper and lower 'directory
 tree' rather than 'filesystem' as it is quite possible for both
 directory trees to be in the same filesystem and there is no
 requirement that the root of a filesystem be given for either upper or
 lower.
 
 A wide range of filesystems supported by Linux can be the lower filesystem,
 but not all filesystems that are mountable by Linux have the features
 needed for OverlayFS to work.  The lower filesystem does not need to be
 writable.  The lower filesystem can even be another overlayfs.  The upper
 filesystem will normally be writable and if it is it must support the
 creation of trusted.* and/or user.* extended attributes, and must provide
 valid d_type in readdir responses, so NFS is not suitable.
 
 A read-only overlay of two read-only filesystems may use any
 filesystem type.
 
 Directories
 -----------
 
 Overlaying mainly involves directories.  If a given name appears in both
 upper and lower filesystems and refers to a non-directory in either,
 then the lower object is hidden - the name refers only to the upper
 object.
 
 Where both upper and lower objects are directories, a merged directory
 is formed.
 
 At mount time, the two directories given as mount options "lowerdir" and
 "upperdir" are combined into a merged directory:
 
   mount -t overlay overlay -olowerdir=/lower,upperdir=/upper,\
   workdir=/work /merged
 
 The "workdir" needs to be an empty directory on the same filesystem
 as upperdir.
 
 Then whenever a lookup is requested in such a merged directory, the
 lookup is performed in each actual directory and the combined result
 is cached in the dentry belonging to the overlay filesystem.  If both
 actual lookups find directories, both are stored and a merged
 directory is created, otherwise only one is stored: the upper if it
 exists, else the lower.
 
 Only the lists of names from directories are merged.  Other content
 such as metadata and extended attributes are reported for the upper
 directory only.  These attributes of the lower directory are hidden.
 
 whiteouts and opaque directories
 --------------------------------
 
 In order to support rm and rmdir without changing the lower
 filesystem, an overlay filesystem needs to record in the upper filesystem
 that files have been removed.  This is done using whiteouts and opaque
 directories (non-directories are always opaque).
 
 A whiteout is created as a character device with 0/0 device number.
 When a whiteout is found in the upper level of a merged directory, any
 matching name in the lower level is ignored, and the whiteout itself
 is also hidden.
 
 A directory is made opaque by setting the xattr "trusted.overlay.opaque"
 to "y".  Where the upper filesystem contains an opaque directory, any
 directory in the lower filesystem with the same name is ignored.
 
 readdir
 -------
 
 When a 'readdir' request is made on a merged directory, the upper and
 lower directories are each read and the name lists merged in the
 obvious way (upper is read first, then lower - entries that already
 exist are not re-added).  This merged name list is cached in the
 'struct file' and so remains as long as the file is kept open.  If the
 directory is opened and read by two processes at the same time, they
 will each have separate caches.  A seekdir to the start of the
 directory (offset 0) followed by a readdir will cause the cache to be
 discarded and rebuilt.
 
 This means that changes to the merged directory do not appear while a
 directory is being read.  This is unlikely to be noticed by many
 programs.
 
 seek offsets are assigned sequentially when the directories are read.
 Thus if
 
   - read part of a directory
   - remember an offset, and close the directory
   - re-open the directory some time later
   - seek to the remembered offset
 
 there may be little correlation between the old and new locations in
 the list of filenames, particularly if anything has changed in the
 directory.
 
 Readdir on directories that are not merged is simply handled by the
 underlying directory (upper or lower).
 
 renaming directories
 --------------------
 
 When renaming a directory that is on the lower layer or merged (i.e. the
 directory was not created on the upper layer to start with) overlayfs can
 handle it in two different ways:
 
 1. return EXDEV error: this error is returned by rename(2) when trying to
    move a file or directory across filesystem boundaries.  Hence
    applications are usually prepared to hande this error (mv(1) for example
    recursively copies the directory tree).  This is the default behavior.
 
 2. If the "redirect_dir" feature is enabled, then the directory will be
    copied up (but not the contents).  Then the "trusted.overlay.redirect"
    extended attribute is set to the path of the original location from the
    root of the overlay.  Finally the directory is moved to the new
    location.
 
 There are several ways to tune the "redirect_dir" feature.
 
 Kernel config options:
 
 - OVERLAY_FS_REDIRECT_DIR:
     If this is enabled, then redirect_dir is turned on by  default.
 - OVERLAY_FS_REDIRECT_ALWAYS_FOLLOW:
     If this is enabled, then redirects are always followed by default. Enabling
     this results in a less secure configuration.  Enable this option only when
     worried about backward compatibility with kernels that have the redirect_dir
     feature and follow redirects even if turned off.
 
 Module options (can also be changed through /sys/module/overlay/parameters/):
 
 - "redirect_dir=BOOL":
     See OVERLAY_FS_REDIRECT_DIR kernel config option above.
 - "redirect_always_follow=BOOL":
     See OVERLAY_FS_REDIRECT_ALWAYS_FOLLOW kernel config option above.
 - "redirect_max=NUM":
     The maximum number of bytes in an absolute redirect (default is 256).
 
 Mount options:
 
 - "redirect_dir=on":
     Redirects are enabled.
 - "redirect_dir=follow":
     Redirects are not created, but followed.
 - "redirect_dir=off":
     Redirects are not created and only followed if "redirect_always_follow"
     feature is enabled in the kernel/module config.
 - "redirect_dir=nofollow":
     Redirects are not created and not followed (equivalent to "redirect_dir=off"
     if "redirect_always_follow" feature is not enabled).
 
 When the NFS export feature is enabled, every copied up directory is
 indexed by the file handle of the lower inode and a file handle of the
 upper directory is stored in a "trusted.overlay.upper" extended attribute
 on the index entry.  On lookup of a merged directory, if the upper
 directory does not match the file handle stores in the index, that is an
 indication that multiple upper directories may be redirected to the same
 lower directory.  In that case, lookup returns an error and warns about
 a possible inconsistency.
 
 Because lower layer redirects cannot be verified with the index, enabling
 NFS export support on an overlay filesystem with no upper layer requires
 turning off redirect follow (e.g. "redirect_dir=nofollow").
 
 
 Non-directories
 ---------------
 
 Objects that are not directories (files, symlinks, device-special
 files etc.) are presented either from the upper or lower filesystem as
 appropriate.  When a file in the lower filesystem is accessed in a way
 the requires write-access, such as opening for write access, changing
 some metadata etc., the file is first copied from the lower filesystem
 to the upper filesystem (copy_up).  Note that creating a hard-link
 also requires copy_up, though of course creation of a symlink does
 not.
 
 The copy_up may turn out to be unnecessary, for example if the file is
 opened for read-write but the data is not modified.
 
 The copy_up process first makes sure that the containing directory
 exists in the upper filesystem - creating it and any parents as
 necessary.  It then creates the object with the same metadata (owner,
 mode, mtime, symlink-target etc.) and then if the object is a file, the
 data is copied from the lower to the upper filesystem.  Finally any
 extended attributes are copied up.
 
 Once the copy_up is complete, the overlay filesystem simply
 provides direct access to the newly created file in the upper
 filesystem - future operations on the file are barely noticed by the
 overlay filesystem (though an operation on the name of the file such as
 rename or unlink will of course be noticed and handled).
 
 
 Permission model
 ----------------
 
 Permission checking in the overlay filesystem follows these principles:
 
  1) permission check SHOULD return the same result before and after copy up
 
  2) task creating the overlay mount MUST NOT gain additional privileges
 
  3) non-mounting task MAY gain additional privileges through the overlay,
  compared to direct access on underlying lower or upper filesystems
 
 This is achieved by performing two permission checks on each access
 
  a) check if current task is allowed access based on local DAC (owner,
     group, mode and posix acl), as well as MAC checks
 
  b) check if mounting task would be allowed real operation on lower or
     upper layer based on underlying filesystem permissions, again including
     MAC checks
 
 Check (a) ensures consistency (1) since owner, group, mode and posix acls
 are copied up.  On the other hand it can result in server enforced
 permissions (used by NFS, for example) being ignored (3).
 
 Check (b) ensures that no task gains permissions to underlying layers that
 the mounting task does not have (2).  This also means that it is possible
 to create setups where the consistency rule (1) does not hold; normally,
 however, the mounting task will have sufficient privileges to perform all
 operations.
 
 Another way to demonstrate this model is drawing parallels between
 
   mount -t overlay overlay -olowerdir=/lower,upperdir=/upper,... /merged
 
 and
 
   cp -a /lower /upper
   mount --bind /upper /merged
 
 The resulting access permissions should be the same.  The difference is in
 the time of copy (on-demand vs. up-front).
 
 
 Multiple lower layers
 ---------------------
 
 Multiple lower layers can now be given using 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.
 
 The specified lower directories will be stacked beginning from the
 rightmost one and going left.  In the above example lower1 will be the
 top, lower2 the middle and lower3 the bottom layer.
 
 
 Metadata only copy up
 ---------------------
 
 When metadata only copy up feature is enabled, overlayfs will only copy
 up metadata (as opposed to whole file), when a metadata specific operation
 like chown/chmod is performed. Full file will be copied up later when
 file is opened for WRITE operation.
 
 In other words, this is delayed data copy up operation and data is copied
 up when there is a need to actually modify data.
 
 There are multiple ways to enable/disable this feature. A config option
 CONFIG_OVERLAY_FS_METACOPY can be set/unset to enable/disable this feature
 by default. Or one can enable/disable it at module load time with module
 parameter metacopy=on/off. Lastly, there is also a per mount option
 metacopy=on/off to enable/disable this feature per mount.
 
 Do not use metacopy=on with untrusted upper/lower directories. Otherwise
 it is possible that an attacker can create a handcrafted file with
 appropriate REDIRECT and METACOPY xattrs, and gain access to file on lower
 pointed by REDIRECT. This should not be possible on local system as setting
 "trusted." xattrs will require CAP_SYS_ADMIN. But it should be possible
 for untrusted layers like from a pen drive.
 
 Note: redirect_dir={off|nofollow|follow[*]} and nfs_export=on mount options
 conflict with metacopy=on, and will result in an error.
 
 [*] redirect_dir=follow only conflicts with metacopy=on if upperdir=... is
 given.
 
 Sharing and copying layers
 --------------------------
 
 Lower layers may be shared among several overlay mounts and that is indeed
 a very common practice.  An overlay mount may use the same lower layer
 path as another overlay mount and it may use a lower layer path that is
 beneath or above the path of another overlay lower layer path.
 
 Using an upper layer path and/or a workdir path that are already used by
 another overlay mount is not allowed and may fail with EBUSY.  Using
 partially overlapping paths is not allowed and may fail with EBUSY.
 If files are accessed from two overlayfs mounts which share or overlap the
 upper layer and/or workdir path the behavior of the overlay is undefined,
 though it will not result in a crash or deadlock.
 
 Mounting an overlay using an upper layer path, where the upper layer path
 was previously used by another mounted overlay in combination with a
 different lower layer path, is allowed, unless the "inodes index" feature
 or "metadata only copy up" feature is enabled.
 
 With the "inodes index" feature, on the first time mount, an NFS file
 handle of the lower layer root directory, along with the UUID of the lower
 filesystem, are encoded and stored in the "trusted.overlay.origin" extended
 attribute on the upper layer root directory.  On subsequent mount attempts,
 the lower root directory file handle and lower filesystem UUID are compared
 to the stored origin in upper root directory.  On failure to verify the
 lower root origin, mount will fail with ESTALE.  An overlayfs mount with
 "inodes index" enabled will fail with EOPNOTSUPP if the lower filesystem
 does not support NFS export, lower filesystem does not have a valid UUID or
 if the upper filesystem does not support extended attributes.
 
 For "metadata only copy up" feature there is no verification mechanism at
 mount time. So if same upper is mounted with different set of lower, mount
 probably will succeed but expect the unexpected later on. So don't do it.
 
 It is quite a common practice to copy overlay layers to a different
 directory tree on the same or different underlying filesystem, and even
 to a different machine.  With the "inodes index" feature, trying to mount
 the copied layers will fail the verification of the lower root file handle.
 
 
 Non-standard behavior
 ---------------------
 
 Current version of overlayfs can act as a mostly POSIX compliant
 filesystem.
 
 This is the list of cases that overlayfs doesn't currently handle:
 
 a) POSIX mandates updating st_atime for reads.  This is currently not
 done in the case when the file resides on a lower layer.
 
 b) If a file residing on a lower layer is opened for read-only and then
 memory mapped with MAP_SHARED, then subsequent changes to the file are not
 reflected in the memory mapping.
 
 c) If a file residing on a lower layer is being executed, then opening that
 file for write or truncating the file will not be denied with ETXTBSY.
 
 The following options allow overlayfs to act more like a standards
 compliant filesystem:
 
 1) "redirect_dir"
 
 Enabled with the mount option or module option: "redirect_dir=on" or with
 the kernel config option CONFIG_OVERLAY_FS_REDIRECT_DIR=y.
 
 If this feature is disabled, then rename(2) on a lower or merged directory
 will fail with EXDEV ("Invalid cross-device link").
 
 2) "inode index"
 
 Enabled with the mount option or module option "index=on" or with the
 kernel config option CONFIG_OVERLAY_FS_INDEX=y.
 
 If this feature is disabled and a file with multiple hard links is copied
 up, then this will "break" the link.  Changes will not be propagated to
 other names referring to the same inode.
 
 3) "xino"
 
 Enabled with the mount option "xino=auto" or "xino=on", with the module
 option "xino_auto=on" or with the kernel config option
 CONFIG_OVERLAY_FS_XINO_AUTO=y.  Also implicitly enabled by using the same
 underlying filesystem for all layers making up the overlay.
 
 If this feature is disabled or the underlying filesystem doesn't have
 enough free bits in the inode number, then overlayfs will not be able to
 guarantee that the values of st_ino and st_dev returned by stat(2) and the
 value of d_ino returned by readdir(3) will act like on a normal filesystem.
 E.g. the value of st_dev may be different for two objects in the same
 overlay filesystem and the value of st_ino for filesystem objects may not be
 persistent and could change even while the overlay filesystem is mounted, as
 summarized in the `Inode properties`_ table above.
 
 
 Changes to underlying filesystems
 ---------------------------------
 
 Changes to the underlying filesystems while part of a mounted overlay
 filesystem are not allowed.  If the underlying filesystem is changed,
 the behavior of the overlay is undefined, though it will not result in
 a crash or deadlock.
 
 Offline changes, when the overlay is not mounted, are allowed to the
 upper tree.  Offline changes to the lower tree are only allowed if the
 "metadata only copy up", "inode index", "xino" and "redirect_dir" features
 have not been used.  If the lower tree is modified and any of these
 features has been used, the behavior of the overlay is undefined,
 though it will not result in a crash or deadlock.
 
 When the overlay NFS export feature is enabled, overlay filesystems
 behavior on offline changes of the underlying lower layer is different
 than the behavior when NFS export is disabled.
 
 On every copy_up, an NFS file handle of the lower inode, along with the
 UUID of the lower filesystem, are encoded and stored in an extended
 attribute "trusted.overlay.origin" on the upper inode.
 
 When the NFS export feature is enabled, a lookup of a merged directory,
 that found a lower directory at the lookup path or at the path pointed
 to by the "trusted.overlay.redirect" extended attribute, will verify
 that the found lower directory file handle and lower filesystem UUID
 match the origin file handle that was stored at copy_up time.  If a
 found lower directory does not match the stored origin, that directory
 will not be merged with the upper directory.
 
 
 
 NFS export
 ----------
 
 When the underlying filesystems supports NFS export and the "nfs_export"
 feature is enabled, an overlay filesystem may be exported to NFS.
 
 With the "nfs_export" feature, on copy_up of any lower object, an index
 entry is created under the index directory.  The index entry name is the
 hexadecimal representation of the copy up origin file handle.  For a
 non-directory object, the index entry is a hard link to the upper inode.
 For a directory object, the index entry has an extended attribute
 "trusted.overlay.upper" with an encoded file handle of the upper
 directory inode.
 
 When encoding a file handle from an overlay filesystem object, the
 following rules apply:
 
 1. For a non-upper object, encode a lower file handle from lower inode
 2. For an indexed object, encode a lower file handle from copy_up origin
 3. For a pure-upper object and for an existing non-indexed upper object,
    encode an upper file handle from upper inode
 
 The encoded overlay file handle includes:
  - Header including path type information (e.g. lower/upper)
  - UUID of the underlying filesystem
  - Underlying filesystem encoding of underlying inode
 
 This encoding format is identical to the encoding format file handles that
 are stored in extended attribute "trusted.overlay.origin".
 
 When decoding an overlay file handle, the following steps are followed:
 
 1. Find underlying layer by UUID and path type information.
 2. Decode the underlying filesystem file handle to underlying dentry.
 3. For a lower file handle, lookup the handle in index directory by name.
 4. If a whiteout is found in index, return ESTALE. This represents an
    overlay object that was deleted after its file handle was encoded.
 5. For a non-directory, instantiate a disconnected overlay dentry from the
    decoded underlying dentry, the path type and index inode, if found.
 6. For a directory, use the connected underlying decoded dentry, path type
    and index, to lookup a connected overlay dentry.
 
 Decoding a non-directory file handle may return a disconnected dentry.
 copy_up of that disconnected dentry will create an upper index entry with
 no upper alias.
 
 When overlay filesystem has multiple lower layers, a middle layer
 directory may have a "redirect" to lower directory.  Because middle layer
 "redirects" are not indexed, a lower file handle that was encoded from the
 "redirect" origin directory, cannot be used to find the middle or upper
 layer directory.  Similarly, a lower file handle that was encoded from a
 descendant of the "redirect" origin directory, cannot be used to
 reconstruct a connected overlay path.  To mitigate the cases of
 directories that cannot be decoded from a lower file handle, these
 directories are copied up on encode and encoded as an upper file handle.
 On an overlay filesystem with no upper layer this mitigation cannot be
 used NFS export in this setup requires turning off redirect follow (e.g.
 "redirect_dir=nofollow").
 
 The overlay filesystem does not support non-directory connectable file
 handles, so exporting with the 'subtree_check' exportfs configuration will
 cause failures to lookup files over NFS.
 
 When the NFS export feature is enabled, all directory index entries are
 verified on mount time to check that upper file handles are not stale.
 This verification may cause significant overhead in some cases.
 
 Note: the mount options index=off,nfs_export=on are conflicting for a
 read-write mount and will result in an error.
 
 Note: the mount option uuid=off can be used to replace UUID of the underlying
 filesystem in file handles with null, and effectively disable UUID checks. This
 can be useful in case the underlying disk is copied and the UUID of this copy
 is changed. This is only applicable if all lower/upper/work directories are on
 the same filesystem, otherwise it will fallback to normal behaviour.
 
 Volatile mount
 --------------
 
 This is enabled with the "volatile" mount option.  Volatile mounts are not
 guaranteed to survive a crash.  It is strongly recommended that volatile
 mounts are only used if data written to the overlay can be recreated
 without significant effort.
 
 The advantage of mounting with the "volatile" option is that all forms of
 sync calls to the upper filesystem are omitted.
 
 In order to avoid a giving a false sense of safety, the syncfs (and fsync)
 semantics of volatile mounts are slightly different than that of the rest of
 VFS.  If any writeback error occurs on the upperdir's filesystem after a
 volatile mount takes place, all sync functions will return an error.  Once this
 condition is reached, the filesystem will not recover, and every subsequent sync
 call will return an error, even if the upperdir has not experience a new error
 since the last sync call.
 
 When overlay is mounted with "volatile" option, the directory
 "$workdir/work/incompat/volatile" is created.  During next mount, overlay
 checks for this directory and refuses to mount if present. This is a strong
 indicator that user should throw away upper and work directories and create
 fresh one. In very limited cases where the user knows that the system has
 not crashed and contents of upperdir are intact, The "volatile" directory
 can be removed.
 
 
 User xattr
 ----------
 
 The "-o userxattr" mount option forces overlayfs to use the
 "user.overlay." xattr namespace instead of "trusted.overlay.".  This is
 useful for unprivileged mounting of overlayfs.
