I know. The problem is that mount from util-linux has it's own wrapper for the mount entries which is using mountinfo while coreutils' df is just calling get_fs_usage() from gnulib which in turn is reading /etc/mtab - which is a symlink to /proc/self/mounts in this case. And that file has both entries. So the question is: * is it a kernel thing to not expose rootfs to /proc/self/mounts? * should gnulib's get_fs_usage() switch to reading mountinfo? * is it a gnulib thing to not filter the rootfs entry? * is it up to coreutils to filter out the rootfs entry? * should coreutils' df switch to reading mountinfo? There are several possibilities here. Jim? Have a nice day, Berny
