RHEL6.10: Mount option exec is ignored since upgrade to nfs-utils 1.2.3-78
Issue
Since updating to nfs-utils-1.2.3-78.el6, the combination "users, exec" in fstab is ignored and mount is always noexec, even when done manually by root
# cat /etc/fstab | grep -i nfs
nfs-server:/export /mnt nfs defaults,ro,users,exec,auto 0 0
# mount /mnt
# cat /proc/mounts | grep -i nfs
nfs-server:/export on /mnt type nfs (ro,users,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.10 (NFS client)
- nfs-utils-1.2.3-78.el6
