I've got nothing against AUFS (I use it myself, and I'm quite content
with it), but I think it'll have to mature a bit before it would be
accepted into the 2.6-tree. I've had almost no serious issues - a couple
of kernel panics, but mr. Okajima is very quick to put out fixes. :-)

I hope mr. Okajima will keep up the good work, and we'll probably see
aufs in 2.6 soon :-)

OTOH, I guess you could try getting it added with an EXPERIMENTAL tag or
something. But aufs still has very rapid development cycles, so the code
in the kernel release would get outdated very soon. :-)

Kindest regards, Jørgen P. Tjernø.

Re: Inclusion in the kernel?

Hello Russell,

Russell Harmon:
 I was just wondering, has anyone tried to get aufs included in the
 kernel? If not, why not?

Currently, I don't have a plan to ask kernel people to include aufs.
But someday I will try it.
