[resending to fs-devel mailing list hoping to get some hints] Hello I've some shell scripts which try to find out the filesystem hosted by a block device. They basically do this: mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt fs=$(stat -f -c %T $mount_point) umount /mnt It happens to work but since an unknown upgrade (kernel, libs or tools upgrade), umount(8) returns -EBUSY. I found that it's actually the sys_umount() which return -EBUSY. So the question, is this expected or is this a regression ? If it's expected then which operation should I add between the mount(8) and umount(8) to make the mount operation completely finish (inside the kernel) so the next umount won't return -EBUSY ? Oh I'm currently using the kernel shipped with F12: 2.6.32.9-67.fc12.x86_64 Thanks -- Francis -- Francis -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
