Failed to run TestGetMounts in chroot

[zhsj]

Background:

I packaged this library in Debian[1], and Ubuntu synced it to its archive[2]. But I found in Ubuntu it failed to build. After inspecting the log[3], I think the reason is TestGetMounts.

TestGetMounts: mountinfo_test.go:22: / should be mounted at least

Ubuntu builds this library with chroot. So I test it in a chroot and add some logs.

Since this test reads /proc/self/mountinfo, change the test from / to /proc is much better.

This test was added by PR
moby/moby#4812 (commit (moby/moby@a7e181c).

[kolyshkin]

The Linux kernel's show_mountinfo() has a check that the mount is accessible, and it is not shown if not. Looks like this is why the mount for / is not shown in the Ubuntu case -- they have some weird setup.

Nevertheless, a proposed fix is #18.
