+# FS QA Test 003
+#
+# Test overlayfs basic whiteout.
+#
+# Overlayfs whiteout can be visible if underlying upper fs does not
+# support d_type. Kernel commit
+# 45aebea (ovl: Ensure upper filesystem supports d_type)
+# prevents mounting overlayfs like this since v4.6-rc1.
+# No harm to keep this test as a sanity check.
