Aha, so yes, confirmed my *understanding* of the instructions also fails
on vanilla kernel.
So I *think* we need a tweak to the install instructions, currently it
reads:
>>>
For aufs3-standalone tree,
There are several ways to build.
1.
- apply ./aufs3-kbuild.patch to your kernel source files.
- apply ./aufs3-base.patch too.
- apply ./aufs3-proc_map.patch too, if you want to make /proc/PID/maps (and
others including lsof(1)) show the file path on aufs instead of the
path on the branch fs.
- apply ./aufs3-standalone.patch too, if you have a plan to set
CONFIG_AUFS_FS=m. otherwise you don't need ./aufs3-standalone.patch.
- copy ./{Documentation,fs,include/uapi/linux/aufs_type.h} files to your
kernel source tree. Never copy $PWD/include/uapi/linux/Kbuild.
>>>
I think the copy line should read (excuse line wrap):
- copy
./{Documentation,fs,include/linux/aufs_type.h,include/uapi/linux/aufs_type.h}
files to your
Or possibly:
- copy ./{Documentation,fs,include/{/,uapi}/linux/aufs_type.h} files to your
Can you please confirm that I *should* have copied both of these header
files? (Examining the files suggests yes)
Thanks for aufs!
