Facter / Bug FACT-1992
autofs mountpoints being mounted by facter
Issue Type: Bug Bug
Affects Versions: FACT 3.11.9
Assignee: Unassigned
Created: 2019/08/16 7:04 AM
Priority: Major Major
Reporter: Fabrizio Lungo
Original Estimate: 1 hour
Remaining Estimate: 1 hour

After updating to facter 3.11.9 we started experiencing issues caused by the regular mounting and unmounting of automount filesystems. We traced the cause back to facter and found that it was triggering a mount of . This seems to be related to the change made in FACT-1910 (0f0d8f4df70f886ec7ae86f65a24909a4f20b0f7/lib/src/facts/linux/filesystem_resolver.cc). The auto mount is triggered by stating the mount dir to get the size and available space.

Skipping non-physical mountpoints was a good catch all of a lot of synthetic filesystems which could introduce other problems problems and so it seems it will now be required to maintain a list of mount types to ignore.

The change should be reverted, autofs should be added as a skipped mtype (as with tempfs) or you should not stat autofs mountpoints.

Release Notes Summary: When Facter stats a mountpoint to get the size and available space, it causes mountpoints of type {{autofs}} to be automatically mounted, which is not the intended behavior.

Automounts are now skipped by Facter when resolving mountpoints.

Gabriel Nagy, this went into Facter 3.14.5 as well, didn't it?

Oh, good, thank you Gabriel Nagy! I thought that's what the .z fixversions referred to, but with a .z version, I'm never sure.
