Hello there, I've found a curious problem with cvs and directories bind-mounted. If one tries to perform any kind of cvs operation inside that dir, cvs fails with an error like "cannot get working directory: No such file or directory".
The problem is pretty easy to be reproduced, at least in my setup here, based on CVS 1.12.13: ] mount -o bind $HOME /mnt ] cd /mnt ] cvs -d:pserver:anonymous:@cvs.savannah.nongnu.org:/sources/goboscripts login cvs [login aborted]: cannot get working directory: No such file or directory By looking at strace output, it looks like the cvs command is using a new syscall named openat(), shown by strace as 'SYS_295'. Some operations using this file descriptor are returning different values when the command is run inside $HOME and /mnt, so I guess this can be where the problem is. Any suggestions on how to make it possible to run cvs from inside a bind-mounted dir? Can anyone confirm this?
