From 9b04c997b1120feefa1e6ee8e2902270bc055cd2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Theodore Ts'o Date: Fri, 24 Mar 2006 03:15:10 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] vfs: MS_VERBOSE should be MS_SILENT 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.
