Note that the Linux kernel does not allow to change multiple propagation flags
with a single
.BR mount (2)
-system call, and the flags cannot be mixed with other mount options.

-Since util-linux 2.23 the \fBmount\fR command allows to use several propagation flags
-together and also together with other mount operations. This feature is EXPERIMENTAL.
-The propagation flags are applied by additional \fBmount\fR(2) system calls when the
-preceding mount operations were successful. Note that this use case is not
-atomic. It is possible to specify the propagation flags in
+system call, and the flags cannot be mixed with other mount options and operations.
