Hi everyone, recently util-linux 2.39 was released. In this release the mount(8) command and libmount where changed to use the new fd-based mount API found in newer kernels.
Unfortunately the old(?) option syntax in aufs using colons, instead of equality signs, does not work anymore with the new mount(8) using the new kernel API. This does not work: mount -t aufs -o br:/tmp/rw none /tmp/aufs This does work: mount -t aufs -o br=/tmp/rw none /tmp/aufs Would it make sense from aufs side to update the docs to use the equality sign based syntax? It seems to be supported as well as the colon-based one. See also https://github.com/util-linux/util-linux/issues/2309 Thanks, Thomas
