A few years before I have tested ecryptfs because there was an enthusiastic aufs user trying ecryptfs branch, and found several problems. All were reported to LKML, but not fixed at that time. Later the user stopped using aufs. So there is no reason for me to support broken ecryptfs branch. Note the problems may be fixed now. Simply I don't follow the changes in ecryptfs since then. > encfs gives the following error: > aufs au_wbr_init:343:mount[6321]: /(fuse), unsupported namelen 0 It means this fuse based filesystem returns 0 as statfs.f_namelen which aufs cannot handle. If encfs supports it correctly (return 255 or something), then you may be able to use it as aufs branch. J. R.
