I am not confident to understand what you wrote fully. The basic feature of aufs is to hide the lower file. I believe you had already known that.

Which case do you want to know? /u = /br0 + /br1 --> /u = /br1 + /br0 + /br1 Aufs doesn't allow such case. /u = /br0 + /br1 --> /u = /br1 + /br0 It available. /u = /br0 + /br1/dirA --> /u = /br1/dirB + /br0 + /br1/dirA It available too.
