When the NFS export feature is enabled, overlayfs implicitly enables the feature "verify_lower". When the "verify_lower" feature is enabled, a directory inode found in lower layer by name or by redirect_dir is verified against the file handle of the copy up origin that is stored in the upper layer. This introduces a change of behavior for the case of lower layer modification while overlay is offline. A lower directory created or moved offline under an exisitng upper directory, will not be merged with that upper directory. The NFS export feature should not be used after copying layers, because the new lower directory inodes would fail verification and won't be merged with upper directories.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
