From 0de4ffcad031c1d0b8422ebcceb9caa80995a73e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Thomas=20B=C3=A4chler?= Date: Thu, 3 Apr 2014 21:55:37 +0200 Subject: [PATCH 5/6] fs: Don't return 0 from get_anon_bdev MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Commit 9e30cc9595303b27b48 removed an internal mount. This has the side-effect that rootfs now has FSID 0. Many userspace utilities assume that st_dev in struct stat is never 0, so this change breaks a number of tools in early userspace. Since we don't know how many userspace programs are affected, make sure that FSID is at least 1.
