Thanks for the patch. I wonder if it's possible to:
1) Use a common dataset as the base layer (see other existing tests);
2) Mount two overlayfs to get the incremental layers;
- one to generate some artifacial dirs, files;
- the other to change/delete some files, or delete dirs, new another
dirs;
3) Test typical metadata (whiteout, opaque), and data with:
a) fsmerged erofs;
b) overlayfs mount;
fssum those two mounts.
Thanks,
Gao Xiang
