This allows a flag to be set on loop devices so that when they are closed for the last time, they'll self-destruct. In general, so that we can automatically allocate loop devices (as with losetup -f) and have them disappear when we're done with them. In particular, right now, so that we can stop relying on the hackish special-case in umount(8) which kills off loop devices which were set up by 'mount -oloop'. That means we can stop putting crap in /etc/mtab which doesn't belong there, which means it can be a symlink to /proc/mounts, which means yet another writable file on the root filesystem is eliminated and the 'stateless' folks get happier... and OLPC trac #356 can be closed. The mount(8) side of that is at http://marc.info/?l=util-linux-ng&m=119362955431694&w=2 [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org> Cc: Bernardo Innocenti <bernie@codewiz.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |
