So I would like to ask you a few questions: 1. What is the root cause of this problem? 2. Can we just upgrade overlay fs to solve this problem without upgrading the kernel or all file systems? 3. If we upgrade overlayfs separately, we are not very good at verifying that we have solved this problem, because the recurrence probability of this problem is very low. So I want to ask, how can we quickly reproduce this problem? 4. Do you have any good suggestions? I am looking forward to your reply.
