[jira] [Commented] (MESOS-4969) improve overlayfs detection

["Aaron Wood (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Aaron Wood commented on MESOS-4969:
-----------------------------------

Why not let the OS load it on demand when needed instead of prematurely checking and failing right away? That way no one needs to explicitly enable the module and add it to /etc/modules.

> On my Fedora 23, overlayfs is a module that is not loaded by default (attempting to mount an overlayfs automatically triggers the module loading). However {{mesos-slave}} won't start until I manually load the module since it is not listed in {{/proc/filesystems}} until is it loaded.
> It would be nice if there was a more reliable way to determine overlayfs support.
