Hi,

this seems a rather old issue that's still alive, manifesting in NFS
mounts, nullfs mounts with jails, etc:
"Overly" long path names in these situations result in an error like
"mount_nullfs: <path>: File name too long". I, for example, run into
this every time I try to setup a poudriere jail, others seem too.

Since the forums didn't really provide an answer, I'll ask here:
Is there work currently being done on this issue? Because this reply:
https://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=210593+0+/usr/local/www/db/text/2014/freebsd-questions/20141221.freebsd-questions
seems to indicate this has been fixed, which definitely isn't the case
for many people, including myself.

So what's the status on that? Am I overlooking something important?


Thank you,

Konstantin
