Non-blocking mount in Linux
I use Linux's mount(2) function in a single-threaded process. But mounting of devices devices like CD-ROM may take a while (worst I've seen is 40 seconds!), as it will ponder a little, spin up the disk, and only then will mount the filesystem. This may block the process from processing other events for considerable time. I cannot seem t...
