Description Richard Scott 2009-01-28 16:07:48 UTC

Hi,

I have a server with sys-apps/baselayout-1.12.11.1 and I have been having problems rebooting when I have something mounted via sshfs.

For example, if you have an entry in your /etc/fstab as follows:

sshfs#root@server:/root /root fuse _netdev,defaults 0 0

The /root mount point is mounted at boot time via netmount :-)

However, netmount fails to unmount this mountpoint when you stop the service i.e. rebooting or poweroff etc.

When shutting down in this way it causes the computer to hang and wait for ever as the sshfs mount point hasn't been unmounted.

I don't think this is the right wat to fix it but I've found that you need to change NET_FS_LIST line in /sbin/functions.sh (aka /etc/init.d/functions.sh) to include fuse.sshfs as follows:

NET_FS_LIST="afs cifs coda davfs fuse gfs ncpfs nfs nfs4 ocfs2 shfs smbfs fuse.sshfs"

I think this is because the "netmount start" uses /etc/fstab as its source of filesystems to mount and the "netmount stop" uses information from /proc/mounts.

The /proc/mounts file lists the filesystem type as "fuse.sshfs" rather than just fuse so it doesn't get detected to be unmounted via netmount as its not in its list of ones to look for.

I hope this can be worked into an updated script.

Cheers,

Rich.


Reproducible: Always

Thank you Richard for investigation. We already have this bug filled so I put patch for this issue there and assign that bug on base-system.
