define emount

emount is a program to ease mounting and umounting of
various ecryptfs directories. For instance, I like to
have ~/Ubuntu\ One/gtd mounted on ~/gtd. To do this,
I would create .ecryptfs/gtd.conf, containing an fstab-like
entry:

  /home/serge/Ubuntu\ One/gtd /home/serge/gtd ecryptfs none 0 0

and create .ecryptfs/gtd.sig containing the signature. I
can ecryptfs-add-passphrase to preload my keychain, and then
just do

  emount gtd

to mount, and eumount gtd to unmount it.

Add patch to fix uevent devpath handling. This is needed at least
from lucid..natty to work with the Intel Modular Server.

Author: Serge Hallyn
Revision Date: 2010-12-07 19:53:02 UTC

Fix SCM failover bugs:
1. multipathd expects uevents from kernel about /sys/block/sda. But
we are only getting them about /sys/devices/pci000:00/.../block/sda.
So we never add or remove devices that we should add based on
uevents.
2. Since we never see (or rather, never understand) the ACTION=remove
event for /dev/block/sda, but we have the device pinned, we never
end up unpinning it. So the kernel doesn't re-use sda when the
path shows back up. So we end up using funky-using paths like sdaa.
This looked for all the world like a kernel refcount problem, but
was actually a userspace bug. (We should have known based on the
fact that rollover stopped after multipathd crashed :)
Note that /sys/block/sda is always a symlink to the longer pathname.
This patch fixes this bug by accepting the uevents on the full block
/sys/ pathname. (LP: #660597)
This fix (slightly differently) is in the upstream code since 2008 and
in debian sid package.

(LP: #642258)

Author: Serge Hallyn
Revision Date: 2010-11-18 16:12:30 UTC

Add retries to mountroot(). This is particularly needed when we
use multipath, because it is possible that mountroot() will race
with udev's renaming of /dev/disk/by-uuid/{rootfs-uuid} from
/dev/sd?? to /dev/mapper/something. After multipath has grabbed
the /dev/sd?? and until udev completes the rename, mounting
/dev/disk/by-uuid/{rootfs-uuid} will fail with -EBUSY.
