Hi,
we are using AUFS for our root filesystem with an tmpfs overlay and recently wanted to switch to a kernel with PREEMPT_RT patch. Unfortunately, it seems that mounting aufs seems to hang about 40% of the time during boot (there is no specific kernel or log message). When it comes up, it seems to work correctly.
Are there known issues with AUFS and PREEMPT_RT? Are people using it?
We are on Kernel 4.1.30 with ltsi patches and aufs4.1.13+.
In order to get AUFS to compile, we needed to apply the following additional patch: https://github.com/beagleboard/linux/pull/108/commits/ad740435f28e3ffb5d73a419086b0b6fd3bc7240
Any pointers or suggestions are welcome.
Kind regards,
Nikolaus
