Subject: [RFC PATCH v3] dm overlaybd: targets mapping OverlayBD image

OverlayBD is a generic layering block-level image format, design
for container, secure container and applicable to virtual machine,
published in USENIX ATC '20
https://www.usenix.org/system/files/atc20-li-huiba.pdf

OverlayBD already has a ContainerD non-core sub-project implementation
in userspace, as an accelerated container image service
https://github.com/containerd/accelerated-container-image

It could be much more efficient when do decompressing and mapping works
in the kernel with the framework of device-mapper, in many circumstances,
such as secure container runtime, mobile-devices, etc.

We hope it could be used in not only container images, but also other
conditions that needs a readonly layering block device images.

This patch contains a module, dm-overlaybd, provides two kinds of targets
dm-zfile and dm-lsmt, to expose a group of block-devices contains
OverlayBD image as a overlaid read-only block-device.

+dm-overlaybd
+============
+
+The device-mapper OverlayBD (dm-overlaybd) module allows merge block-devices
+contains OverlayBD format layers, into read-only OverlayBD block device.
+
+The OverlayBD is a block-device based container images system, based on
+random-readable compressed format ZFile, and multi-layer overlay block-device
+format LSMTFile.
+
+The following targets are provided by dm-overlaybd
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+- dm-zfile
+- dm-lsmt
+
+
+dm-zfile Table parameters
+-------------------------
+  <dev path> <ZFile size>
+
+Parameters:
+
+    <dev path>:
+        Full pathname to the underlying block-device,
+    <ZFile size>:
+        ZFile data length, in unit of byte.
+
+Examples:
+
+ZFile format data laying on /dev/vda, the ZFile length is 658971539,
+the table should be like:
+
+zfile_decompressed /dev/vdb 658971539
+
+
+dm-lsmt Table parameters
+------------------------
+  <baselayer dev path> <baselayer LSMTFile size>
+  [<upperlayer dev path> <upperlayer LSMTFile size>]
+
+Mandatory parameters:
+
+    <baselayer dev path>:
+        Full pathname to the underlying block-device, usually is a mapped
+        ZFile device.
+    <baselayer LSMTFile size>:
+        ZFile data length, in unit of byte.
+
+
+Optional parameter:
+
+    <upperlayer dev path> <upperlayer LSMTFile size>:
+        Multi-layer LSMTFile could overlay as stack, just like container
+        images.
+        The upper layers also described in table as optional parameters.
+        Each layer should tell the Full pathname of underlying block-device,
+        and a file size described LSMTFile data length in unit of byte.
+
+
+Examples:
+
+The base layer is mapped by dm-zfile in /dev/mapper/lsmt_base, and one upper
+layer is /dev/mapper/lsmt_upper that described changes from base layer.
+Assume that base layer LSMTFile length is 1,006,923,776 bytes, and upper layer is
+682,206,208 bytes.
