[Libguestfs] [PATCH] daemon: Run lsof when an umount command fails in umount_all call.
Useful for debugging unmount failures.

Maybe worth being done also on single umount API? Thanks, -- Pino Toscano

Maybe worth being done also on single umount API?Unfortunately there's no actual output from 'lsof'. I'm not sure if this is because I'm running lsof in the wrong way or (more likely) it's a race with some process holding open a file momentarily during the umount. So this patch is probably not right anyway. I wonder if we should use a lazy umount instead ...
