So now my target is Debian 8 / Linux 4.1 / systemd / overlayfs / SELinux. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I know aufs is not your main concern, but would you tell me why do you think that aufs doesn't support SELinux? If I remember correctly, aufs can live with SELinux. It might be due to your (or your distribution's) configuration, especially CONFIG_AUFS_XATTR. J. R. Okajima
