I did some research - CONFIG_AUFS_EXPORT=y in the following kernels for Ubuntu 12.04.5: linux-image-generic-lts-trusty (linux-image-3.13.0-36-generic), linux-image-generic-lts-saucy (linux-image-3.11.0-26-generic), linux-image-generic-lts-raring (linux-image-3.8.0-44-generic),
and not set in: linux-image-generic-lts-quantal (linux-image-3.5.0-54-generic), linux-image-generic (linux-image-3.2.0-69-generic). So the fix is needed for 3.2 and 3.5 kernels in Ubuntu 12.04. Please release it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1121699 Title: aufs CONFIG_AUFS_EXPORT build option should be enabled Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “linux” source package in Raring: Fix Released Bug description: This is needed to export aufs filesystems via nfs. This was set in a previous version (in Debian - http://bugs.debian.org /cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=490079), and released in Ubuntu build for aufs 0+20080719-4 (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/aufs/0+20080719-4), so this could perhaps be considered a regression (although to be fair aufs and its packaging has undergone significant rewriting since then). Regardless considering aufs is a popular method of supporting large storage systems (among other things) and nfs is a popular method of exporting large storage systems, it would be great if this could be enabled in a future build, unless there is some known contraindication.
