Jonathan Boulle commented on MESOS-349:
---------------------------------------

Well, when the slave tries to GC the sandbox, it fails if there are any mounts 
within the sandbox (e.g. rm -rf against a bind-mounted /proc will never 
succeed).

Forcibly unmounting anything mounted within the sandbox, before the tree 
cleanup, is exactly what I meant - since the GC is basically a "purge with 
prejudice" operation, it seems like a reasonable addition to me.

> It would be extremely helpful if the GC process on a slave (which is 
> currently effectively just an {{rm -rf}}) could also remove mounts within the 
> executor sandbox. 
> This would allow sandboxes to incorporate mounts from different filesystems, 
> for example, or to utilise chroots (which require various mounts to function 
> properly - e.g. {{/proc}} and {{/sys}} on Linux) - and still be cleaned up by 
> the mesos slave without any external intervention.
