I tried the verbose option, but it doesn't produce enough output.
> mkdir union a b
> mount -t aufs aufs union -o verbose,br:a=rw:b=rw
> cat > union/lock # in separate term
> mount union -o remount,del:a
[ 114.704254] aufs au_br_del:758:mount[1215]: 1 file(s) opened
mount: /tmp/union is busy
It doesn't produce any output for other operations.
> mount union -o remount,ro,mod:a=ro
mount: /tmp/union is busy
I recompiled and tried the sysrq, which produced hundreds of lines of
output (snippet of the "lock" file below)
> echo a > /proc/sysrq-trigger

Well, I'm not happy with the answer, but I have to admit you did answer
my question.
I don't think I want to go down the route of parsing the output from a
debugging interface.
It'll be easier to kill and restart all the processes on the union when
a branch is locked.
Thanks again,
Lou
BTW, I have a simple perl script which shows the mounts, including aufs
branches, in a columnar layout.
If anyone wants it let me know; I'll clean it up and post it somewhere.
