Subject: nilfs_cleanerd doesn't get started when /etc/mtab is a symlink to /proc/self/mounts
Date: Sat, 12 Oct 2013 21:12:56 +0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1381597976.9351.22.camel@i7> (raw)
Hi.
nifs_cleanerd doesn't get started when /etc/mtab is a symlink
to /proc/self/mounts:
# mount -f -o remount /
mount.nilfs2: cannot modify /etc/mtab.
Please remount the partition with -f option after making /etc/mtab
writable.
nilfs_cleanerd not started
This is now real problem as most (all?) distributions are moving or
moved toward having /etc/mtab being symlink:
Fedora already did this.
Debian: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=494001
Gentoo: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=477498
This was already discussed
http://marc.info/?l=linux-nilfs&m=130832696129454&w=2 and it was planed
for 2.1 but this is still an issue with 2.1.5. Do you have any idea when
this change will happen? Thanks.
