michaelo created this revision.

It'd make more sense to change the man pages instead. The string in question doesn't matter for synthetic filesystems like these, so we might as well be consistent and use the "fs" suffix everywhere.

I've always heard of them referred to as linprocfs and linsysfs. We should probably fix them in the manual.

Good, I will change the manpage and revise the handbook for incomplete fstab statements.

michaelo added a reviewer: markj.

Guys, docs updated. Manpages pending.

Guys, is this acceptable?

It's fine. The string here doesn't matter, I usually just use "none".

This revision is now accepted and ready to land.Fri, Oct 17, 12:44 PM

I think this is fine too (although like Mark I typically use none).

This revision was automatically updated to reflect the committed changes.
