Linux kernel as of [3.18.0](https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/10/26/137). Call
`docker -d -s overlay` to use it.
> **Note:**
> As promising as `overlay` is, the feature is still quite young and should not
> be used in production. Most notably, using `overlay` can cause excessive

> **Note:**
> It is currently unsupported on `btrfs` or any Copy on Write filesystem
> and should only be used over `ext4` partitions.
