Do you know about automount units? They would be the perfect fit for your use case.
From what I understand they behave like pre-systemd automounting, that is, any process that attempted to read/open /backup would cause it to be mounted, and what I want is only for "blessed" services to do so. So an accidental rm -f / won't hit it (unless, in my current setup, a backup is running. But I hope to find a better solution with mount namespaces).
I could reproduce the behaviour with v241 for a .mount unit but not a .service unit.
Excellent, thanks!
Upgrading to buster, i.e. v242, I could no longer reproduce the issue, so closing the bug report for 242-7, the current version in buster.
Buster (stable) has v241.
Are you likely to do a backport of ≥ v242 in Buster's lifetime? Alternatively, assuming a reasonable patch can be extracted from v241..v242, what is the likelyhood of accepting a patch in stable updates for this issue? Thanks, -- 👱🏻 Jonathan Dowland ✎ j...@dow.land 🔗 https://jmtd.net
