+Multiple lower layers
+---------------------
+
+Multiple lower layers can now be given using the the colon (":") as a
+separator character between the directory names. For example:
+
+ mount -t overlay overlay -olowerdir=/lower1:/lower2:/lower3 /merged
+
+As the example shows, "upperdir=" and "workdir=" may be omitted. In
+that case the overlay will be read-only.
+
+The specified lower directories will be stacked beginning from the
+rightmost one and going left. In the above example lower1 will be the
+top, lower2 the middle and lower3 the bottom layer.
