Message-ID: <20200406160706.GC2147@fieldses.org> (raw)

The patch makes sense to me, thanks!
In the NFS case it's implementing the "mountpoint" export option:
mountpoint=path
mp This option makes it possible to only export a directory if it
has successfully been mounted. If no path is given (e.g.
mountpoint or mp) then the export point must also be a mount
point. If it isn't then the export point is not exported. This
allows you to be sure that the directory underneath a mountpoint
will never be exported by accident if, for example, the filesysâ
tem failed to mount due to a disc error.
If a path is given (e.g. mountpoint=/path or mp=/path) then the
nominated path must be a mountpoint for the exportpoint to be
exported.
--b.
