So your situation is, / = /rw + /ro $ ls /rw/tmp - no 'test' file $ ls /ro/tmp - 'test' file exists, 0777, normal user/group $ rm /tmp/test - succeeds - whiteout for 'test' is created. $ touch /tmp/test - unexpected error, No such file or directory Will you check these things? - after rm, check the whiteout by 'ls -l /rw/tmp/.wh.test' - check the dir permission by 'ls -ld / /rw /ro /rw/tmp /ro/tmp' - find the systemcall which returned the error by 'strace touch /tmp/test' If there is another user on your system and the branch filesystems (/rw and /ro in above example) are not hidden, someone else might change them directly (bypassing aufs). In this case, you should use 'udba=inotify' aufs mount option. Otherwise, aufs may behave differently as you expect.
