[Vserver] [OPoll] BME inclusion into next stable release
Hi Folks! The new year isn't very old yet, and already there are questions over questions regarding the future direction linux-vserver will take ... anyway, interesting times and so I once again try to get your opinion on a specific patch, the so called Bind Mount Extensions (short BME) (the hasty reader can skip to OPINION POLL) what is it? === simple, the Linux kernel supports a few 'magic' tricks in the vfs (virtual filesystem) layer, which can be used to 'create' different views of the underlying filesystems ... those are better known as --bind and --rbind mounts, but also --move mounts belong to this category. what can I do with it? == they basically allow you to 'copy' or 'move' the 'view' of an entire directory to a different point in the vfs hierarchy, let's take an example here: mount --bind /var/tmp /tmp the result is that both /tmp and /var/tmp point to the same directory (/var/tmp) in the filesystem, even if they originally (e.g. var) are on different filesystems why would I need BME? = well, unfortunately the kernel design is flawed, or better incomplete, in that way, that it does not honor certain mount attributes, like read only or noatime, more than that, it silently ignores them ... mount --bind -o ro /tmp /mnt/ touch /mnt/foo OPINION POLL please check (X) all points which apply ...
