[Bug 280383] Removing the last link to an open file prevents remounting read-only--suggest document and/or code change

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=280383 --- Comment #2 from Bill Blake <billblake2018@gmail.com> --- (In reply to Mark Johnston from comment #1) Yes, it is being used as a file, but it is not necessarily "open for writing". If the file has no links, it doesn't matter what its open modes are; the file system can't be downgraded without -f. It would be a simple matter to add "or if any file on the file system is open and has a zero link count" to the man page. Or, per my suggestion, the problem could be eliminated. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
