4 An overlay filesystem combines two filesystems - an 'upper' filesystem
5 and a 'lower' filesystem. When a name exists in both filesystems, the
6 object in the 'upper' filesystem is visible while the object in the
7 'lower' filesystem is either hidden or, in the case of directories,
8 merged with the 'upper' object.
