[jira] [Commented] (MESOS-4672) Implement aufs based provisioner backend.

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-4672?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15283823#comment-15283823 ] 

Shuai Lin commented on MESOS-4672:
----------------------------------

[~jieyu] The code is mostly copy-paste-modified from overlay backend, do you think it's worth to refactor out a common base class for overlay/aufs? 

Pros: Better abstraction

Cons: The subclasses may be only overlay and aufs, and no more.  The remaining possible backends are btrfs, devicemapper, which doesn't work like this.

> Overlay fs support hasn't been merged until kernel 3.18. Docker's default storage backend for ubuntu 14.04 is aufs. We should consider adding a aufs based backend for unified containerizer as well to efficiently provide a union fs (instead of relying on copy backend which is not space efficient).
