I don't think we need to worry about that or handle it. IMO, if we redirect a helper that does "exit", we're doing something wrong, so either fix the redirection or fix the helper (just return not exit). I went through helpers in common/rc roughly, except the _overlay_mount issue, seems we don't have other such problems right now :) Thanks, Eryu -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-unionfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
