Subject: [PATCH] mount: fix duplicate mounts using the new mount API
Date: Sat, 25 Oct 2025 10:49:34 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251025024934.1350492-1-luogf2025@163.com> (raw)
When using the new mount API, invoking the same mount command multiple
times such as:
mount /dev/mapper/mydevice /mnt/mydisk2
results in multiple identical mount entries being created:
/dev/mapper/mydevice on /mnt/mydisk2 type ext4 (rw,relatime)
/dev/mapper/mydevice on /mnt/mydisk2 type ext4 (rw,relatime)
/dev/mapper/mydevice on /mnt/mydisk2 type ext4 (rw,relatime)
...
Fixes: 2db154b3ea8e ("vfs: syscall: Add move_mount(2) to move mounts around")
