* Correctly format page cross referencesMichael Kerrisk (man-pages)2016-11-291-1/+1
| | | | | | | | Most pages in util-linux follow the standard convention of formatting page cross references in bold. Fix the few exceptions that use italic. Signed-off-by: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@gmail.com>
* Place SEE ALSO entries in orderMichael Kerrisk (man-pages)2016-11-291-7/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch does only the following: * Order SEE ALSO entries first by section name, then alphabetically within section * Adds one or two missing commas in SEE ALSO lists * Removes one or two periods that were (inconsistently) used at the end of SEE ALSO lists.

* mount: add note about another flags for "remount,bind"Karel Zak2016-09-081-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The man page is talking about read-only bind mounts (-o remount,bind,ro), but this feature also works for another VFS flags like nodev, suid, etc. For example: mount -o remount,bind,noatime /mountpoint is a valid command.

| | | | | | | | | Mainly by using proper subsections (so they can be indexed), protecting some things from hyphenation, and marking with \& periods that don't end sentences.

* libmount: add support for "bind,ro"Karel Zak2015-08-171-19/+16Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now it's necessary t use two mount(8) calls to create a read-only mount: mount /foo /bar -o bind mount /bar -o remount,ro,bind This patch allows to specify "bind,ro" and the remount is done automatically by libmount by additional mount(2) syscall. It's not atomic of course. Signed-off-by: Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com>

* mount.8: Clarify relation between noatime and nodiratimeBorut Mrak2015-08-111-2/+4
| | | According to https://lwn.net/Articles/245002/ and checking Linus' git master fs/inode.c it's obvious nodiratime is redundant when mounting with noatime. Clarify that in the man page.

* libmount: revert "read mtab on remount" ideaKarel Zak2015-01-161-9/+8Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's backwardly incompatible nonsense to prefer mtab on remount. mount -o remount /foo has to read mount options from fstab otherwise the remount has no effect. (The ideal solution would be to read both mtab, then modify the options according to fstab -- but for now more important is to be backwardly compatible.)

* libmount: allow unspecified source on remountKarel Zak2014-12-181-6/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | kernel does not require mount source (e.g. device name) on remount, it means that fstab/mtab/mountinfo should be optional in this case. For example: mount -o rw,remount / has to work on system without mounted /proc. Signed-off-by: Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com>
