| | | | | | | | | | Clarify that the nosuid option also affects file capabilities and that it only limits execution of programs. (setgid on directories still inherit the group regardless of the nosuid option.) The new text is taken from the mount(2) manual page from the man-pages project.

* libmount: accept another flags on MS_REMOUNT|MS_BINDKarel Zak2018-05-281-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current libmount MS_REMOUNT|MS_BIND support is restricted to MS_RDONLY (read-only bind mount). This is too restrictive as Linux kernel supports bind-remount for arbitrary VFS flags. After this update you can use # mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/A # mount --bind -onosuid,noexec /mnt/A /mnt/B # findmnt /dev/sdc1 -oTARGET,SOURCE,FS-OPTIONS,VFS-OPTIONS TARGET SOURCE FS-OPTIONS VFS-OPTIONS /mnt/A /dev/sdc1 rw,stripe=512,data=ordered rw,relatime /mnt/B /dev/sdc1 rw,stripe=512,data=ordered rw,nosuid,noexec,relatime The "mount --bind" is composed from two syscalls of course (1st is bind, 2nd is bind,remount,nosuid,noexec).

* mount(8): drop redundant filesystem-specific sectionsMike Frysinger2018-01-241-327/+8Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a new section to the top of the filesystem-specific chapter to point people generally to the filesystem-specific man pages. This way we can delete all the redundant subsections that say the same thing. These subsections are deleted because they offer no options. Which is the same as all the filesystems the kernel supports but this man page doesn't explicitly list (of which there are a few). coherent minix ramfs romfs squashfs sysv xenix These subsections are deleted because they simply point to the respective <fs>(5) or mount.<fs>(8) page which we now document at the top. Some also discuss the syscall ABI, but that doesn't seem appropriate for this page. btrfs cifs ext2 ext3 ext4 nfs nfs4 proc smbfs tmpfs xfs Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org>

* libmount: ignore "bind" from fstab on command line "remount"Karel Zak2017-06-201-0/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current code always apply all flags from /etc/fstab on remount. Unfortunately remount+bind has special semantic and it's impossible from command line to avoid interaction with the "bind" from fstab. Example, fstab: /dev/sda1 /bar ext4 defaults 0 1 /bar /foo none bind 0 0 Command line: # mount /foo -o remount,rw produces: mount(... MS_REMOUNT|MS_BIND ) syscall This changes the per-mountpoint (VFS) ro flag to rw, but doesn't change the filesystem itself. This patch forces libmount to ignore "bind" from fstab when "-o remount" specified on command line. If you need remount+bind semantic you have to specify the "bind" flag on command line. This allow to differentiate between # mount /foo -o remount,bind,rw --> mount(MS_REMOUNT|MS_BIND) and # mount /foo -o remount,rw --> mount(MS_REMOUNT) Suggested-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com>

* libmount: revert X-* and x-* meaningKarel Zak2016-12-091-14/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Let's hope this is last change necessary to cleanup x-* usage: x-* persistent option, stored in utab, available for umount, etc. X-* fstab comment only mount(8) supports x-mount.mkdir= as well as newly recommended X-mount.mkdir= Advantages: * less invasive * does not require exception for x-systemd * does not require rename x-initrd to X-initrd The systemd and dracut users will get the new (=fixed) functionality without a change in fstab configuration. This is the primary goal. Disadvantages: * not 100% compatible libmount behavior, x-* options have not been previously stored in utab. The API is the same, options will be still available, but on x-* libmount will write to /run/mount/utab. For now it seems only systemd uses x-*, and they like this behavior, so...

* libmount: use x-systemd options as X-*Karel Zak2016-12-081-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous patch introduces X-* options namespace for options that have to be maintained in user space. Unfortunately, systemd users already use mount options that are necessary by umount or another operations. The conclusion from discussion with systemd guys is to store all the systemd options in userspace. It seems better to add one line exception to libmount than force all fstab users to rename x-systemd to X-systemd.

* libmount: introduce X-* commentsKarel Zak2016-12-081-3/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | x-* are fstab only and not stored in userspace (utab). In some cases it's not optional solution because the option is also necessary for umount or another operations. The X-* is exactly the same as x-*, but stored to utab (or mtab on old systems). It's usually bad idea to store mount options in userspace, but it's better to provide any solution that force users to bypass mount(8) (and friends) and implement 3rd-party incompatible solutions.
