layer, the backing file into which the changes will be committed may be
specified as @var{base} (which has to be part of @var{filename}'s backing
chain). If @var{base} is not specified, the immediate backing file of the top
image (which is @var{filename}) will be used. For reasons of consistency,
explicitly specifying @var{base} will always imply @code{-d} (since emptying an
image after committing to an indirect backing file would lead to different data
being read from the image due to content in the intermediate backing chain
overruling the commit target).
image (which is @var{filename}) will be used. Note that after a commit operation
all images between @var{base} and the top image will be invalid and may return
garbage data when read. For this reason, @code{-b} implies @code{-d} (so that
the top image stays valid).
