next_mnt() finds submounts below a given path p. While investigating into an issue in my crossmount patches for nfs-utils I noticed that it does not work when fsid=root, rootdir=/some/path/ and then "/" is being exported. In this case next_mnt() is asked to find submounts of "/" but returns none.I'm not clear as what you are saying... "rootdir=/some/path/" is not an export option.Sorry for being imprecise. rootdir= is an nfs.conf exports option.Point. But I still need the patch in the correctformat with the Signed-off-by...
Well, the goal of my mail was not sending a ready-to-apply patch. It was a question. To me next_mnt() looks wrong but I'm not sure whether the current handling of "/" is desired for some special case I'm not aware of. I'll happily send a patch after we agree that next_mnt() is wrong.
