Hey, the underlying filesystem is a tmpfs for me as well:
# uname -a Linux 4.14.0-3-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.14.13-1 (2018-01-14) x86_64 # mount | grep /tmp none on /tmp type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,nodiratime) # modprobe aufs debug=1 \ && mkdir /tmp/{ro,rw,mount} \ && touch /tmp/ro/bla \ && mount -t aufs -o dirs=/tmp/rw=rw:/tmp/ro=rr+wh aufs /tmp/mount \ && ls /tmp/mount ; \ ls /tmp/mount bla bla I get no segfault for the call still so there has to be another reason...
