Hmmm...

I just released the aufs mount and the tmpfs is correctly showing as
empty again.

$ sudo umount ~/.wine
$ df
Filesystem                           Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
<snip>
none                                1003M     0 1003M   0% /tmp/test

Maybe aufs is messing something up?

Title:
  Empty tmpfs mount reported as full

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After using a tmpfs mount for a while it starts reporting that it is
  almost full and become unusable.

  $ mount ; df ; sudo ls -alR /tmp/test/

  As you should be able to see the tmpfs mount on /tmp/test claims to be
  using ~900 MB but it's really only using a few bytes. It works
  perfectly for a while but then does this.

  I have been using the mount with aufs and the copy-on-write files are
  stored here. Since starting this report the "used" amount has dropped
  around 20 MB but there's no reason for this. There is no longer
  anything running that would use this directory.

  Nothing seems relevant in dmesg or the syslog.

  I don't know how to debug further.

  I will check the upstream kernel, but this is likely to cause other
  problems and will probably be difficult to recreate. I will report
  back once I know.
