Why is aufs a dirty hack?

Because the Linux VFS doesn't (yet) provide the generic operations that
a union filesystem needs.  If you look at the aufs config options and
the code, you will see that it needs to handle various filesystems
specially, and it needs to work around various limitations of the VFS.

Thanks for the explanation.

I am using it for merging many HDDs in a big storage. I tested mhddfs
(http://svn.uvw.ru/mhddfs/trunk/README) and it very often crashed.

How that does that show that aufs is good?



mhddfs uses FUSE and if Valerie Aurora make the same it like reinvent the wheel.
In any case, I am ready to become a beta-tester for new filesystem.
