T o n g: - aufs: allow a loopback-mounted branch ::: Would you elaborate more on this please? If you have the git tree, try git show 94a8852 and you will see aufs: allow a loopback-mounted branch It is rejected to add a branch which is a loopback-mount in another branch. For example, - /au = /br0 + /br1 ... + /brN - /brX/fs.img exists loopback mount /brX/fs.img at /out/dirB, append:/out/dirB This commit allows such case.

Re: aufs2 Monday GIT release
Tommy[D]: Yes, that is your plain aufs2-standalone from today (this monday), i just= take the git tree for aufs2-standalone and the git tree for aufs2-util and put both into a tarb= all, which then goes onto mirrors. Depending on the current kernel, the right branch is then used t= o compile the aufs2 module. Hmm, I could build aufs2-standalone/aufs2-33 with plain linux-2.6.33. I am afraid pax or grsec patches are related. Where can I get these patches or the patched kernel source? J. R. Okajima --

for 2.6.33. The kernel is a development kernel from Gentoo with additiona=
l pax and grsec patches.
I found the pax and grsec patches declare members as 'const'.
grsecurity-2.1.14-2.6.33.4-201005151340.patch
pax-linux-2.6.33.4-test19.patch
For instance,
struct address_space_operations {
- int (*writepage)(struct page *page, struct writeback_control *wbc);
- int (*readpage)(struct file *, struct page *);
- void (*sync_page)(struct page *);
+ int (* const writepage)(struct page *page, struct writeback_control
*wbc);
+ int (* const readpage)(struct file *, struct page *);
+ void (* const sync_page)(struct page *);
It means setting writepage (and other members) is prohibited. But aufs
sets them dynamically. I think this is the cause of your problem.
I don't know whether making them 'const' is necessary or not.

Jeff Breidenbach: Valerie Aurora wrote a set of articles recently on the various union-type filesystems Linux Weekly News. Are you thinking about getting involved with union mounts? According to the articles, there are still some serious problems with readdir(). Thank you for telling me URLs. I may join developing union mounts in the future. Actually I wrote the algorithm of readdir() in aufs two years ago. http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernelm=118915086030712w=2 As you might know, it consumes system resources much and I don't think its the best solution. But I don't have other ideas. As far as I know, union-type FS can be more flexible than union-Mount. I agree aufs is large, but it is grown up by the feature requests from users simply. I have dropped some of features at the beginning of aufs2, and some users requested restoring them actually and I had to agree they are necessary. Personally, to satisfy user's request is more important than getting into mainline for me. J. R.
