For the last year or so I've been carrying a set of local patches to /etc/rc.d/swap1, /etc/defaults/rc.conf and the attendant documentation. The patches stop swap1_stop from blindly unmounting a tmpfs-mounted /dev/while the system is still running multi-user. I was about to submit a PR to try to get the patches into the tree (so that I don't have to tip-toe around them every time I update my base system) when I discovered that ... I already did: bin/51019.
The development of the patches is discussed in the thread starting at: https://mail-index.netbsd.org/current-users/2016/03/13/msg029029.html Could someone take a look and let me know what still needs to be improved before they can be committed? I'd like to get this sorted out before I go looking for more windmills at which to tilt ... Thanks, -- IDL
