Hi John,

thanks for your report, however...

I must say this is a very generic report. To your points 1) and 2)
I could ask "What did the kernel say at this time, esp. did it claim
success?", to 3) and 4) I could say "There is also no documentation
on interactions with other tools changing global system state, like
reboot(1)".
Now, none of these replies would be very helpful.

I agree that generally requiring running "systemctl daemon-reload"
after changing /etc/fstab would be bad. However that doesn't appear
to be true in general.

- Do you have specific reproduction steps, strace output or
  similar debugging information? I would hope these would be helpful
  to decide if this is a mount, udev, or kernel issue.

- Does this still happen with 2.35.1-5?

- What exactly do you want to see changed, and what are your wording
  suggestions?


Thanks,
Chris
