Hello,

Looks like mount(2) can fail with EOVERFLOW [1], but this is not documented in the mount(2) man page [2,3].

[2]: https://www.man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/mount.2.html
[3]: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/docs/man-pages/man-pages.git/tree/man2/mount.2

Thanks,
Reid

From this link, I see the original report was for mkdir(2).  So it's not
just mount(2).

Eric, which pages need to document EOVERFLOW?

Have a lovely day,
Alex
