test-appliance: remove convenience fstab entries
PATCH 1/1 test-appliance: remove convenience fstab entries
From: Eric Biggers <[email protected]>
Fstab entries for the xfstests filesystems interfere with xfstests because they change the behavior of 'mount -o remount MOUNTPOINT' to remount relative to the mount options from the fstab rather than the actual mount options. For example:
With fstab:
$ mount -o lazytime /dev/vdc /vdc $ mount -o remount /vdc $ findmnt /vdc TARGET SOURCE FSTYPE OPTIONS /vdc /dev/vdc ext4 rw,relatime
Without fstab:
$ rm /etc/fstab $ mount -o lazytime /dev/vdc /vdc $ mount -o remount /vdc $ findmnt /vdc TARGET SOURCE FSTYPE OPTIONS /vdc /dev/vdc ext4 rw,relatime,lazytime
So the lazytime option was lost on remount due to the fstab. This happens with other mount options too; lazytime is just an example.
This breaks xfstest ext4/053.
Remove the fstab entries, as they were only needed to make it slightly easier to manually mount filesystems in an interactive shell. So 'mount /vdc' will no longer work, but 'mount /dev/vdc /vdc' will still work.
Alternatively we could make xfstests always use
'mount --options-source=mtab' instead of just 'mount', but xfstests calls 'mount' in a bunch of different places. We could still do it anyway, though; let me know if that would be preferred.
