names.
uni_xlate={0|1|2}
For 0 (or 'no' or 'false'), do not use escape sequences for unknown
Unicode characters. For 1 (or 'yes' or 'true') or 2, use vfat-style
4-byte escape sequences starting with ":". Here 2 gives a
little-endian encoding and 1 a byteswapped bigendian encoding.
posix=[0|1]
If enabled (posix=1), the filesystem distinguishes between upper and
lower case. The 8.3 alias names are presented as hard links instead
of being suppressed. This option is obsolete.
uid=value, gid=value and umask=value
Set the file permission on the filesystem. The umask value is given
in octal. By default, the files are owned by root and not readable
by somebody else.
Mount options for overlay
Since Linux 3.18 the overlay pseudo filesystem implements a union mount
for other filesystems.
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.
The lower filesystem can be any filesystem supported by Linux and 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.* extended attributes, and must
provide a 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. The options lowerdir and upperdir are combined into a merged
directory by using:
mount -t overlay overlay \
-olowerdir=/lower,upperdir=/upper,workdir=/work /merged
lowerdir=directory
Any filesystem, does not need to be on a writable filesystem.
upperdir=directory
The upperdir is normally on a writable filesystem.
workdir=directory
The workdir needs to be an empty directory on the same filesystem as
upperdir.
userxattr
Use the "user.overlay." xattr namespace instead of
"trusted.overlay.". This is useful for unprivileged mounting of
overlayfs.
redirect_dir={on|off|follow|nofollow}
If the redirect_dir feature is enabled, then the directory will be
copied up (but not the contents). Then the
"{trusted|user}.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.
on
Redirects are enabled.
off
Redirects are not created and only followed if
"redirect_always_follow" feature is enabled in the kernel/module
config.
follow
Redirects are not created, but followed.
nofollow
Redirects are not created and not followed (equivalent to
"redirect_dir=off" if "redirect_always_follow" feature is not
enabled).
index={on|off}
Inode index. 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.
uuid={on|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
