nullfs traversing mount points (with working code)
Date: Tue, 07 Dec 2021 06:31:28 UTC
Hi, Recently I had the need to access nfs automounts (for example /net) from within jails, I searched everywhere but couldn't find any suitable solution. It seems we still don't support mount point traversal in nullfs, even though many people have asked for it. I had no choice so I spent a bit of time adding the support myself, which worked satisfactorily for my own purpose. I wonder if anyone's interested in taking the code, polishing it and eventually checking it in. The patch against 13.0-RELENG is at https://people.freebsd.org/~luoqi/nullxmnt.diff Best -luoqi
