Timothy Chen updated MESOS-2971:
--------------------------------
Description:
Part of the image provisioning process is to call a backend to create a root
filesystem based on the image on disk layout.
The problem with the copy backend is that it's both waste of IO and space, and
bind only can deal with one layer.
Overlayfs backend allows us to utilize the filesystem to merge multiple
filesystems into one efficiently.
> Add OverlayFS provisioner backend
