Isn't this (unmount before teardown) achieved by After=network.target? That target is passive, so it is pulled in by a provider, and all should work even in case of manually mounted filesystems.

I took a look at what lsscsi is doing to guess at transport type. iSCSI is kind of ugly, FCoE is really ugly, and for both of those there exists a variety of drivers with varying levels of dependence on the networking layer.

Hmm, I hadn't noticed that with iSCSI because a service gets started to connect to the target so the dependencies can be taken care of there. Should the remote mount unit be generating a Wants dependency along with the Before/After to ensure the synchronization point targets are active?

Thanks for the direction, I've worked up a patch that does this and using libmount here was pretty easy. Unfortunatly with systemd triggering off of the change event from /proc/self/mountinfo, it ends up racing with the mount command to access /run/mount/utab and the _netdev option I'm looking for isn't consistantly picked up. I'll see what else I can come up with. - Chris ___ systemd-devel mailing list systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel

IIRC mount nowadays stores the full mount option string, including all the "userspace-only" options in /run. We could either read those directly from there in systemd, or we could make systemd make use of libmount to get that information. Karel, what are the details there?

[systemd-devel] remote-fs ordering, iSCSI and _netdev
Hi, I was hoping someone could help me make sure I'm not overlooking something with trying to manage mounts on iSCSI disks. I have an iscsi.service which starts and stops sessions to iSCSI targets. It's set with Before=remote-fs-pre.target and Wants=remote-fs-pre.target to ensure that remote fs ordering is enabled. Unfortunately mount points only get configured as remote if there is a record in /etc/fstab at the time fstab-generator is run. At boot fstab-generator is picking up on the _netdev option in fstab, and the generated mount units are ordered against remote-fs properly. If I leave a filesystem mounted at shutdown, it will be unmounted before the iSCSI session is destroyed or the network is shut down and everything works as expected. But there are two cases that are problematic, adding entries to fstab at runtime and manually mounting without adding to fstab (while still using the _netdev option, some hint is needed). The first case actually ends up being the second, with the possible work-around of always remembering to run a daemon-reload after editing fstab to run fstab-generator again. If there's no matching mount unit from fstab-generator, one gets created dynamically when the fs is mounted by monitoring /proc/self/mountinfo. While the core mount unit code checks for _netdev, it's never present in mountinfo. Back in the days of a userspace managed mtab, the _netdev flag was stashed there and could be looked for later, but not so any longer. So for any mounts to remote block devices (unlike remote file system protocols which are detected by the fs name), unless there is an fstab entry at the time fstab-generator is run they get treated like local fs mounts and connectivity to the storage target may be disrupted before unmounting (possibly resulting in file system errors). I'm currently at a loss for how to handle this, other than to claim that if filesystems are going to be left mounted they should be added to fstab and a daemon-reload is required. Thanks in advance for any ideas, - Chris ___ systemd-devel mailing list systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
