------------------------------------------------------ From: Seth Forshee seth.forshee@canonical.com Subject: tmpfs: disallow CONFIG_TMPFS_INODE64 on s390
Currently there is an assumption in tmpfs that 64-bit architectures also have a 64-bit ino_t. This is not true on s390 which has a 32-bit ino_t. With CONFIG_TMPFS_INODE64=y tmpfs mounts will get 64-bit inode numbers and display "inode64" in the mount options, but passing the "inode64" mount option will fail. This leads to the following behavior:
# mkdir mnt # mount -t tmpfs nodev mnt # mount -o remount,rw mnt mount: /home/ubuntu/mnt: mount point not mounted or bad option.
As mount sees "inode64" in the mount options and thus passes it in the options for the remount.
So prevent CONFIG_TMPFS_INODE64 from being selected on s390.
