Docker的overlay2学习

docker配置overlay2

# vi /etc/docker/daemon.json
{
    "storage-driver": "overlay2",
    "storage-opts": ["overlay2.override_kernel_check=true"],
}

[root@test01 ~]# ll /var/lib/docker/overlay2/

l目录存放了短软链接指向了CacheID目录下的diff目录，这是为了挂载命令不会超出长度

[root@test01 overlay2]# ll l/

最底层只有diff和link文件，link文件内容是l目录里面的缩写链接名，实际就是对应diff目录，diff目录实际存放这一层的文件内容

[root@test01 overlay2]# ll f51afd73a6c375929372459583ca58ad4c35f6696562e0cd9764d86c8a0d5abf

高位层有以上目录，如果有多个低位层则会有lower文件，对应文件内容：

[root@test01 overlay2]# cat f51afd73a6c375929372459583ca58ad4c35f6696562e0cd9764d86c8a0d5abf/lower
l/TEU77L2PYR6NJ72JLNXTCVELCH:l/RMPLZG2O42VZCADGWLYKDR6STQ

启动容器后的目录挂载情况：

[root@test01 overlay2]# mount | grep overlay2
/dev/mapper/centos-root on /var/lib/docker/overlay2 type xfs (rw,relatime,attr2,inode64,noquota)
overlay on /var/lib/docker/overlay2/1eeac41cfc97cfc9b3a25581870b130ec2c7c64b679b9002be3bfbe1123907d4/merged type overlay (rw,relatime,lowerdir=/var/lib/docker/overlay2/l/YGDXGAURB7D26RG7ZCQ45PCD57:/var/lib/docker/overlay2/l/I3OKPZLICEBMHWRLPFSJOW64MY,upperdir=/var/lib/docker/overlay2/1eeac41cfc97cfc9b3a25581870b130ec2c7c64b679b9002be3bfbe1123907d4/diff,workdir=/var/lib/docker/overlay2/1eeac41cfc97cfc9b3a25581870b130ec2c7c64b679b9002be3bfbe1123907d4/work)

overlay2分upperdir和lowerdir层：
读文件的时候，文件不在upperdir则从lowerdir读，如果写的文件不在uppderdir在lowerdir，则从lowerdir里面copy到upperdir，不管文件多大，copy完再写，删除或者重命名镜像层的文件都只是在容器层生成whiteout文件标志。

overlay2支持多个容器访问相同文件时公用page cache，在copy_up的时候overlay2比aufs更快，因为aufs的层级多搜索会有延迟，而overlay2会有缓存机制。优化方面可以用ssd，然后频繁的io操作，可以通过挂载volumes来做，绕过存储驱动，而且可以多个容器共享数据，持久化数据。

overlay和overlay2的区别
overlay: 只挂载一层,其他层通过最高层通过硬连接形式共享(增加了磁盘inode的负担)
overlay2: 逐层挂载
