I am aware of the fact that the driver can provide anything. Do we have any examples, where kernel or FUSE driver provides relative source path?
I am just working on a list of all pseudo file systems available in the basic openSUSE repositories. Currently I have ~20 FUSE file systems to inspect.
We also may have two lists: One list of pseudo file systems, second list of obscure pseudo file systems (that don't use relative paths). If the source does not start with "/" and file system is not in one of these lists, mount will return error. I can imagine that we can move this list from code to /etc/libmount/pseudofs.d/.
