I had to describe more about the difference from aufs1. Sorry for your unconvienience. For xino files, aufs1 finds the first writable branch, if it is NFS then try /tmp. If /tmp is NFS too, then produces a warnining and returns an error. In aufs2, not only NFS but also all remote fs, XFS, aufs, ecryptfs and fs which doesn't support NFS-exporting. Your first writable branch is any of them? (See au_test_fs_bad_xino() in fs/aufs/fstype.h) For your second case, aufs2 rejects the filesystem of branhces, procfs, sysfs, configfs, ramfs and aufs. Is your folder any of them? (See au_test_fs_unsuppoted() in fs/aufs/fstype.h) J. R.
