+ depends on EXPERIMENTAL
+ help
+ Aufs is a stackable unification filesystem such as Unionfs,
+ which unifies several directories and provides a merged single
+ directory.
+ In the early days, aufs was entirely re-designed and
+ re-implemented Unionfs Version 1.x series. Introducing many
+ original ideas, approaches and improvements, it becomes totally
+ different from Unionfs while keeping the basic features.

+ help
+ Aufs has two methods to provide a merged view for a directory,
+ by a user-space library and by kernel-space natively. The latter
+ is always enabled but sometimes large and slow.
+ If you enable this option, install the library in aufs2-util
+ package, and set some environment variables for your readdir(3),

+ shows better performance in most cases.

+ When you write something to a special file, some attributes of it

+ less important (actually some device drivers and NFS ignore
+ it). But some applications (such like test program) requires
+ such updates. If you need these updates, then enable this

+ Currently this configuration handles FIFO only.

+config AUFS_BR_RAMFS

+ help
+ If you want to use ramfs as an aufs branch fs, then enable this
+ option. Generally tmpfs is recommended.
+ Aufs prohibited them to be a branch fs by default, because
+ initramfs becomes unusable after switch_root or something
+ generally. If you sets initramfs as an aufs branch and boot your
+ system by switch_root, you will meet a problem easily since the
+ files in initramfs may be inaccessible.
+ Unless you are going to use ramfs as an aufs branch fs without
+ switch_root or something, leave it N.
