Subject: [PATCH 4/4] core: Do not bind a mount unit to a device, if it was

 from mountinfo

If a mount unit is bound to a device, systemd tries to umount the

mount point, if it thinks the device has gone away.

Due to the uevent queue and inotify of /proc/self/mountinfo being two

different sources, systemd can never get the ordering reliably correct.

It can happen, that in the uevent queue ADD,REMOVE,ADD is queued

and an inotify of mountinfo (or libmount event) happend with the

device in question.

systemd cannot know, at which point of time the mount happend in the

ADD,REMOVE,ADD sequence.

The real ordering might have been ADD,REMOVE,ADD,mount

and systemd might think ADD,mount,REMOVE,ADD and would umount the

mountpoint.

A test script which triggered this behaviour is:

rm -f test-efi-disk.img

dd if=/dev/null of=test-efi-disk.img bs=1M seek=512 count=1

parted --script test-efi-disk.img \

  "mklabel gpt" \

  "mkpart ESP fat32 1MiB 511MiB" \

  "set 1 boot on"

LOOP=$(losetup --show -f -P test-efi-disk.img)

udevadm settle

mkfs.vfat -F32 ${LOOP}p1

mkdir -p mnt

mount ${LOOP}p1 mnt

... <dostuffwith mnt>

Without the "udevadm settle" systemd unmounted mnt while the script was

operating on mnt.

Of course the question is, why there was a REMOVE in the first place,

but this is not part of this patch.

Note: I'm adding a Related note, but I'm not entirely sure if it really is...
