Subject: Mounting /proc w/ kernel 3.4.0 - "uid" parameter no longer valid?
Date: Wed, 23 May 2012 20:08:42 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <jpk8nr$2f8$1@snarked.org> (raw)

proc:  unrecognized mount option "uid=1" or missing value

This works under 3.3.6 and earlier (I never tried 3.3.7).  It appears that the 
"uid" mount option was removed.  WHY?  More importantly, where is this change 
listed?  I didn't see it in the git log.

This is really bad as I rebooted a remotely colocated server and since the 
procfs is not mounted, I cannot log in via SSH to correct the problem.

OK, so there's not that much point in changing the UID of the procfs files, 
but I preferred to set their default ownership to a non-privileged user.
