@@ -40,13 +40,46 @@ On 64bit systems, even if all overlay layers are not on the same
 underlying filesystem, the same compliant behavior could be achieved
 with the "xino" feature.  The "xino" feature composes a unique object
 identifier from the real object st_ino and an underlying fsid index.
+
 If all underlying filesystems support NFS file handles and export file
 handles with 32bit inode number encoding (e.g. ext4), overlay filesystem
 will use the high inode number bits for fsid.  Even when the underlying
 filesystem uses 64bit inode numbers, users can still enable the "xino"
 feature with the "-o xino=on" overlay mount option.  That is useful for the
 case of underlying filesystems like xfs and tmpfs, which use 64bit inode
-numbers, but are very unlikely to use the high inode number bit.

+Permission model
+----------------
+
+Permission checking in the overlay filesystem follows these principles:
+
+ 1) permission check SHOULD return the same result before and after copy up
+
+ 2) task creating the overlay mount MUST NOT gain additional privileges
+
+ 3) non-mounting task MAY gain additional privileges through the overlay,
+ compared to direct access on underlying lower or upper filesystems
+
+This is achieved by performing two permission checks on each access
+
+ a) check if current task is allowed access based on local DAC (owner,
+    group, mode and posix acl), as well as MAC checks
+
+ b) check if mounting task would be allowed real operation on lower or
+    upper layer based on underlying filesystem permissions, again including
+    MAC checks
+
+Check (a) ensures consistency (1) since owner, group, mode and posix acls
+are copied up.  On the other hand it can result in server enforced
+permissions (used by NFS, for example) being ignored (3).
+
+Check (b) ensures that no task gains permissions to underlying layers that
+the mounting task does not have (2).  This also means that it is possible
+to create setups where the consistency rule (1) does not hold; normally,
+however, the mounting task will have sufficient privileges to perform all
+operations.
+
+Another way to demonstrate this model is drawing parallels between
+
+  mount -t overlay overlay -olowerdir=/lower,upperdir=/upper,... /merged
+
+and
+
+  cp -a /lower /upper
+  mount --bind /upper /merged
+
+The resulting access permissions should be the same.  The difference is in
+the time of copy (on-demand vs. up-front).
