nilfs_cleanerd for the root filesystem

nilfs_cleanerd for the root filesystem

[dexen deVries]

Hello,

It seems mounting NILFS as root filesystem does not cause nilfs_cleanerd to be 
started. I'm not using initrd; just indicated the root partition in kernel's 
command line, so it gets mounted directly.

Is there a way to fix that?

iterators, string objects, and a full set of C macros that ensure
boundary conditions and improve interfaces.

No, the cleaner daemon cannot be started if the device gets mounted
directly since the daemon is invoked by the mount.nilfs2 helper
program which is called through the common mount program.

If you want to invoke cleanerd later, try remount:

 # mount -t nilfs2 -o remount /dev/xxx /mount-point


We can also shutdown the cleanerd manually by "nogc" option.

 # mount -t nilfs2 -o remount,nogc /dev/xxx /mount-point
