RVMTAB(8)

🦋 RVMTAB(8) 🦋

okay so bestie, the manual name is RVMTAB(8), and it comes from The SuSE boot concept — yes, that's the source vibe. This tiny tool is rvmtab, and its whole personality is reordering your mount table. It's giving "quiet kid in the back who absolutely ate the assignment." 💅

🌸 RVMTAB 🌸

Rvmtab — Sort /proc/mounts in the order of /proc/self/mountinfo

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

rvmtab

🫶 DESCRIPTION 🫶

rvmtab will list out the content of /proc/mounts, sorted first of all in the reverse order of the parent IDs found in /proc/self/mountinfo, and then with a second sub sort in the reverse order of mount IDs also found in /proc/self/mountinfo. It's reverse, then reverse again — the mount table said "spin me right round," and rvmtab said "say less." 🔥

💀 OPTIONS 💀

Currently rvmtab does not know about any option. That's the whole options section, bestie — no flags, no extras, no secret menu. It's giving minimalist icon. 🎀

🎀 EXAMPLES 🎀

rvmtab

🔥 RETURN VALUE 🔥

Besides permission errors and alloc errors — the original spells it "permsissions and and", and we're keeping the receipts — rvmtab always returns success. 💀

🧚 FILES 🧚

• /proc/ — path to the proc file system (see proc(5)).
• /proc/mounts — this file contains a list of all the file systems currently mounted.
• /proc/self/mountinfo — this file contains information about mount points like the unique mount ID.

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

• proc(5), — yep, that's the see-also, trailing comma included because we respect the original's little quirks. 💅
