Subject: [PATCH] autofs - fix fix symlinks arent checked for expiry
Date: Tue, 24 Dec 2013 17:44:59 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20131224094459.20051.4889.stgit@perseus.fritz.box> (raw)
When following a symlink the last_used counter is unconditionally
updated causing the expire checks from user space to prevent
expiry. Opps!
