Hi Lazy umount is a Linux-only feature that let userland tell the kernel to umount a filesystem as soon as it drops the last reference to it. It is used at a few places by GlusterFS and is a portability problem. brick-replace will not currently work without it, which is a critical problem. I wrote a basic lazy umount emulation: it spawn a thread that will try periodically try to umount. Could someone review? http://review.gluster.com/8649 For now the prototype is int gf_umount_lazy (char *xlname, char *path); The thing could be factorized further: if this is considered useful, I can do a umount wrapper with a flag argument which value could be GF_MNT_LAZY, GF_MNT_FORCE. I can also add a timeout to the periodical lazy umount attemps.
