loopback device. The umount command will also free that loopback

Historically, Unix systems kept track of the currently mounted
|
||||
partitions in the file "/etc/mtab". These days, the kernel exports
|
||||
the list of currently mounted partitions in "/proc/mounts", rendering
|
||||
the old mtab file obsolete. (In modern systems, /etc/mtab should be
|
||||
a symlink to /proc/mounts.)

The only reason to have mount maintain an /etc/mtab file itself is if
|

your stripped-down embedded system does not have a /proc directory.
|
||||
If you must use this, keep in mind it's inherently brittle (for
|
||||
example a mount under chroot won't update it), can't handle modern
|
||||
features like separate per-process filesystem namespaces, requires
|
||||
that your /etc directory be writable, tends to get easily confused
|
||||
by --bind or --move mounts, won't update if you rename a directory
|
||||
that contains a mount point, and so on. (In brief: avoid.)
