Subject: bug#51425: file-system: validate flags
Date: Wed, 27 Oct 2021 00:24:28 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <33625107-5cf9-85f8-9025-2b9f186723bc@web.de> (raw)

Imagine the following file system definition in your config.scm:

```
(file-system
   (device (uuid "UUID-123"))
   (flags '((create-mount-point? #t)))
   (mount-point "/mnt")
   (type "ext4")))
```

When you reconfigure there will be no complain, but when you reboot your
system wont boot. The parameter to flags is nonsense, it should be
something like: `read-only`. So mounting of the file system will fail...

It would be nice if we can have some flag validation during reconfigure.
