When LWN looked at the composefs filesystem
in December, we reported that there had been “little response” to the
patches. That is no longer the case. Whether composefs (or something like
it) should be merged has become the subject of an extended debate; at its
core, the discussion is over just how Linux should support certain types of
container workloads.
