[Impact]
* Mounts that have options that are substrings of (showthrough, optional,
bootwait, nobootwait or timeout) Are
being stripped by mountall and not being passed to the mount. Such is the
case of timeo in nfs.
The change is minimal, and simply checks that the option being stripped
matches the length of option being checked against.
This solves the case where one is a substring of the other.
[Test Case]
1. Create an nfs mount option in /etc/fstab with the timeo=2 option. Like the
below.
server:/raid /raid nfs
user,timeo=2,timeout=6 0 0
2. Run mountall as root
3. run mount and verify that the nfs mount specified above has the options
user,timeo=2 , but not timeout=6.
[Regression Potential]
Regression potential is minimal, but regressions are most likely to manifest
themselves in mount options disappearing or new options appearing (some new
options appearing will be valid as is the case of timeo).
