[d_path 6/7] Filter out disconnected paths from /proc/mounts

From: Andreas Gruenbacher
Date: Thu Apr 19 2007 - 19:55:35 EST


Use d_path() instead of seq_path when generating /proc/mounts and
/proc/$id/mountstats, reuse the same buffer for all mounts, and filter out
disconnected paths.

This path has no net effect in itself because d_path() so far doesn't
distinguish sconnected and disconnected paths yet. The next patch fixes that
though; without this patch, the next patch would break /proc/mounts and
/proc/$id/mountstats.

There is some disagreement what /proc/mounts should include. Currently it
reports all mounts from the current namespace and doesn't include lazy
unmounts. This leads to ambiguities with the rootfs (which is an internal mount
irrelevant to user-space except in the initrd), and in chroots.

With this and the next patch, /proc/mounts only reports the mounts reachable
for the current process, which makes a lot more sense IMO. If the current
process is rooted in the namespace root (which it usually is), it will see all
mounts except for the rootfs.
