Public bug reported:

Exporting the following aufs mountpoint (which is mounted):

==============================================================================

/mnt/omegafw_aufs_backup
omega1(rw,sync,mountpoint,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check)

==============================================================================

and then mounting on a client machine results in the following error on
the server:

=========================================

qword_eol: fflush failed: errno 22 (Invalid argument)

=========================================

I have enabled debugging, the following is output:

========================================================================================

A normal trivial nfs export worked (a disk with a few directories on
it).

The aufs filesystem bridges 4 disks which maintain 1780822
files/directories, so is pretty large. Its possible that rpc.mountd
can't cope, which is suggested in this Red Hat bug which appears to be
semi-ignored:

I'll be trying to do the same thing in Samba now.
