[systemd-devel] Inconsistencies in the systemd.mount documentation

[Thomas Bächler]

In the manpage for systemd.mount(5), the following section is included:

COMPATIBILITY OPTIONS
       The following option is also available in the "[Mount]" section,
but exists purely for compatibility reasons and should not be used in
newly written mount files.

       FsckPassNo=
           The pass number for the file system checking service for this
mount. See systemd.service(5) for more information on this setting.


However, if you omit the FsckPassNo= option from a mount unit, no
dependency upon the correct systemd-fsck@ instance is created. So in
fact, the option has a function.

I'm not sure if this is intended, but in my opinion,
DefaultDependencies=yes in a .mount unit should create that dependency,
not the presence of a compatibility options. Does anyone know more?
