Subject: [PATCH 45/55] mount.8: clarify (no)suid behavior on file capabilities
df3f53
df3f53
Clarify that the nosuid option also affects file capabilities and that
df3f53
it only limits execution of programs. (setgid on directories still
df3f53
inherit the group regardless of the nosuid option.) The new text is
df3f53
taken from the mount(2) manual page from the man-pages project.
