>=2.6.29 is affected, since 2.6.29 dentry_open needs 4 arguments.
So there is definitive a patch needed.
Comment 3 Dave Bender 2009-05-10 14:51:29 UTC
Perhaps there should be a version bump to aufs-base5 (released 2009-02-16 04:10)
Comment 4 Thomas Sachau gentoo-dev 2009-05-10 17:54:38 UTC
aufs1 is no longer maintained and only works with kernel versions <2.6.29

aufs2 is the current development version, which is aufs1 with some features dropped. If some further testing goes ok, i will add an ebuild for it to the main tree.
Comment 5 Dave Bender 2009-05-10 19:10:31 UTC
Is there an ebuild for aufs v2 in an overlay?
Comment 6 Thomas Sachau gentoo-dev 2009-05-15 21:25:19 UTC
no, but in main tree, masked for testing:

sys-fs/aufs2

For those, who test, please report back the result of your tests.
Comment 7 Thomas Sachau gentoo-dev 2009-09-18 13:27:48 UTC
Since aufs1 is not developed any more, i will close this bug as cantfix. Please use aufs2 instead.
