Dear Busybox Team, I recently noticed that given mount options (sync, noatime) for the root partition in /etc/fstab are not used.
System is built via buildroot 2016.08 - busybox v1.25.0 --- also tested with buildroot 2019.02.9 - busybox v1.29.3 Root partition is mounted read-only by the kernel (command line: root=/dev/sda1) and then remounted read-write via busybox init inittab entry "::sysinit:/bin/mount -o remount,rw" (due to BR2_TARGET_GENERIC_REMOUNT_ROOTFS_RW). >From my understanding this should be the moment where mount uses /etc/fstab to put the mount options into effect. But instead it has the following options in /proc/mounts: "/dev/root / ext3 rw,relatime,data=ordered 0 0" fstab entry: /dev/sda1 / ext3 rw,sync,noatime 0 1 Busybox configuration: CONFIG_MOUNT=y CONFIG_FEATURE_MOUNT_FLAGS=y CONFIG_FEATURE_MOUNT_FSTAB=y As soon as busybox mount is replaced with util-linux mount (BR2_PACKAGE_UTIL_LINUX_MOUNT), the mount options from /etc/fstab are used as expected. Could this be a bug or is there something wrong with the usage of the mount command from inittab? Best regards Andreas Hilse
