How to add bottom view to a Coordinator Layout with view pager?

I want to add a bottom view to a Coordinator layout with view pager in it , Bottom View will be on top of fragment loaded by view pager and independent of it .

I added a linear layout with

layout_gravity = "bottom"

but bottom view linear layout is not showing at all

Following is my xml layout of the activity.
