Re: How to supervise an early process [s6-svscan root pivot]

Let's say, one mounts some tmpfs fses, containing sevicedirs, and fires up
s6-svscan as one of first binaries (when booting from ramdisk) - what is
expected behaviour of running instance of s6-svscan, when pivot_root happens ?

Will it detect that servicedirs were "swapped out" in-flight?

And in both cases:
- even if servicedirs are on same filesystem mounted (again) under new_root
  (fstat inodes are same)?
- or even when new servicedirs are completely different set of dirs?

Is this behaviour undefined?
