If /dev/vda is a btrfs volume (not using partitioning) and is mounted to /mnt And if /mnt/root is made as a normal directory (not a subdirectory) And if an nfs share is mounted to /mnt/root/mnt And for some reason "mount /mnt/root /mnt/root --bind" is ran ... Should /mnt/root/mnt now be viewable as an empty mountpoint, hiding the nfs share? Right now it does that. Not sure what the expected behavior would be. Not sure if "mount x x" is ever desired to be allowed, or if it should refuse to do that. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe util-linux" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
