Package: mount
Version: 2.17.2-9
Severity: minor

Hi,

The mount(1) page does not make clear what mount options are used
by default.  Likewise, it does not document what is omitted from
the output of "mount" because it is a default mount option.

The closest mount(1) comes is in the strictatime section which
says to go look at /proc/mount.

If the "acl" or "relatime" options are omitted from the mount
options are the options on or off.  It seems the only way to tell
is to play around with remounting or testing the feature.
(The latter is difficult when you are unfamiliar with the feature
because it's hard to tell if you're doing things right and
the feature is disabled or if the feature is enabled and
the test is incorrect.)  This is not very friendly.

Hello!

The default mount options means util-linux will not set any particular
mount options. Instead the kernel gets to use whatever it thinks is a
suitable default. What that actually means (inside the kernel) varies
per different filesystem implementations.  Both what options actually
exists and what their defaults are. Please see the kernel documentation
for the particular filesystem you're interested in to find out what
the default mount options is for it, in that particular version of the
kernel.
