UnionFS UnionFS

UnionFS - Definition and Overview

UnionFS is a file system that presents the union of all the files and directories of several file systems. Special mount options are needed to define the semantics of collision resolution.

This sort of capability is currently present in the Plan 9 operating system, which uses this sort of behaviour to manage devices as well as "conventional" user files.
