[Bug 1208978] Re: Empty tmpfs mount reported as full
Both the mainline kernel and the daily build don't support aufs. There's
nothing that mentions aufs in the build log at all. I assume aufs
support has not been built.

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.

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.
