Package: initscripts Version: 2.88dsf-32 Severity: normal I have TMPFS_SIZE set to 512 MiB and an entry in /etc/fstab: tmpfs /tmp tmpfs defaults,noatime,nodiratime,nodev,nosuid 0 0
However, that value seems to be ignored as "df -h" says /tmp has the total size of 1.5 GiB (the system has 3 GiB of RAM). Running "mount" shows this: tmpfs on /tmp type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,nodiratime) At first, lack of the "size=" option made me think that the value from /etc/default/tmpfs is either ignored completely or reset to kernel default for some reason. In an attempt to find at least some clues I copied /lib/init/mount- functions.sh, added the line echo "domount: $*" to the very beginning of domount() and ran the following script: -- #!/bin/sh .. /lib/lsb/init-functions .. /lib/init/tmpfs.sh .. /tmp/mount-functions.sh mount_tmp mount -- The result was: domount: mount tmpfs shmfs /tmp tmpfs -onodev,nosuid,size=512m,mode=1777 So configuration options are recognized by the initialization scripts and passed to the "mount" utility, but somehow get lost later. There are similar /etc/fstab records for other tmpfs mounts (/run, /run/lock and /run/shm) but only /tmp doesn't work as expected. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages initscripts depends on: ii coreutils 8.13-3.2 ii debianutils 4.3.2 ii libc6 2.13-35 ii lsb-base 4.1+Debian7 ii mount 2.20.1-5.1 ii sysv-rc 2.88dsf-32 ii sysvinit-utils 2.88dsf-32 Versions of packages initscripts recommends: ii e2fsprogs 1.42.5-1 ii psmisc 22.19-1 initscripts suggests no packages. -- Configuration Files: /etc/default/tmpfs changed: RAMLOCK=yes RAMSHM=yes RAMTMP=yes TMPFS_SIZE=512m RUN_SIZE=2m LOCK_SIZE=1m -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
