The conversion was generated via scripts, and the result was validated
automatically via a script as well.

<title>[PATCH] vfs: MS_VERBOSE should be MS_SILENT</title>
<updated>2006-03-24T15:33:15+00:00</updated>

<id>9b04c997b1120feefa1e6ee8e2902270bc055cd2</id>
<content type='text'>
The meaning of MS_VERBOSE is backwards; if the bit is set, it really means,
"don't be verbose".  This is confusing and counter-intuitive.

In addition, there is also no way to set the MS_VERBOSE flag in the
mount(8) program in util-linux, but interesting, it does define options
which would do the right thing if MS_SILENT were defined, which
unfortunately we do not:

#ifdef MS_SILENT
  { "quiet",    0, 0, MS_SILENT    },   /* be quiet  */
  { "loud",     0, 1, MS_SILENT    },   /* print out messages. */
#endif

So the obvious fix is to deprecate the use of MS_VERBOSE and replace it
with MS_SILENT.

<title>Revert mount/umount uevent removal</title>

<id>fa675765afed59bb89adba3369094ebd428b930b</id>
<content type='text'>
This change reverts the 033b96fd30db52a710d97b06f87d16fc59fee0f1 commit
from Kay Sievers that removed the mount/umount uevents from the kernel.
Some older versions of HAL still depend on these events to detect when a
new device has been mounted.  These events are not correctly emitted,
and are broken by design, and so, should not be relied upon by any
future program.  Instead, the /proc/mounts file should be polled to
properly detect this kind of event.

A feature-removal-schedule.txt entry has been added, noting when this
interface will be removed from the kernel.

We had a user trigger this message on a box that had a lot of different

if we print out which device failed.
