* mount: first look for mountpointKarel Zak2011-06-291-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | # mount <device|dir> The current code looks for a device and then for a mountpoint in /etc/fstab. This is not user friendly solution. People usually use # mount /dir to mount any filesystem. It makes more sense to check for mountpoint and if not found then for device. This is also important for bind mounts, for example if you have in your fstab: /dev/sda1 /mnt/foo auto defaults /mnt/foo /mnt/bar none bind then # mount /mnt/foo should be interpreted as the first entry and /dev/sda1 should be mounted.

* mount.8: remove reprecated bh/nobh options from the manual pageLukas Czerner2011-06-081-11/+6Star
| | | | | | | | | Bh and nobh mount option has been deprecated in ext4 (206f7ab4f49a2021fcb8687f25395be77711ddee) and in ext3 (4c4d3901225518ed1a4c938ba15ba09842a00770) so remove those options from documentation. Signed-off-by: Lukas Czerner <lczerner@redhat.com>

* mount: rename "quiet" to "silent" (MS_SILENT)Karel Zak2011-03-111-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | The quiet mount option was in collision with vfat and hfs mount options. The option was also undocumented -- so it's probably safe to rename the option than add some ugly hacks or exceptions for vfat/hfs to the mount(8) code.

* mount: use auto-loopdev for all known filesystemsKarel Zak2010-04-081-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | The commit e580266914734898999f652025f9c7141023df66 introduced "automatically detect and loop-mount regular files". This should be used only for filesystems that require block devices. All known filesystems in libblkid depend block devices, so we can use blkid_known_fstype() as a filter for this feature.

* mount: automatically detect and loop-mount regular filesKarel Zak2010-03-151-11/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch allows to automatically create a loop device from a regular file if a filesystem type is not specified, for example: mount /path/disk.img /mnt If the filesystem type is specified than "-o loop" is required. Note that there is not a restriction (on kernel side) that prevents regular file as a mount(2) source argument. A filesystem that is able to mount regular files could be implemented.

* mount: document changed semantics of tmpfs size option in mount.8kevin.granade@gmail.com2009-09-221-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | Linux kernel commit 818db35992c249dc32c1d86daf7d533fb0952f5d fixed a problem where invoking mount -t tmpfs with a size argument smaler than the size of one page caused the limits on the size of a tmpfs to not operate. The commit also caused the number supplied by the size option to be rounded up to the nearest page size instead of down. This alters the man page to match the behavior of the kernel in this instance.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Karel Zak wrote: "This is very old (10+years) feature. The mount(8) is trying to found mountpoint/device in fstab and then in mtab. I guess the original purpose for this feature is user-friendly 'mount /node -o remount'. Unfortunately, the code does not check for MS_REMOUNT flag and consults mtab in all cases. (The code is consulting fstab/mtab before mount options parsing.)" This commit documents this feature. Signed-off-by: Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com>
