Subject: Signal USR1 does not force unmount
Date: 26 Sep 2005 19:48:59 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <yfi8xxjb4ys.fsf@triumf.ca> (raw)

Hello maintainers,

According to the automount manual, signal USR1 is supposed to 
immediately cause unmounting of inactive filesystems, but
 
  killall -s USR1 automount

(and similar kill commands) has no noticable effect; one must 
wait for the regular expiry time before the system gets unmounted.

Signal USR2 does function as described, causing automount to
exit when filesystem is inactive.


Versions:

Linux automount version 4.1.3-114

Fedora Core (2.6.12-1.1378_FC3)
