 one of that user’s
           groups matches the group of the device. This option implies the
           options nosuid and nodev (unless overridden by subsequent options,
           as in the option line group,dev,suid).

       iversion
           Every time the inode is modified, the i_version field will be
           incremented.

       noiversion
           Do not increment the i_version inode field.

       mand
           Allow mandatory locks on this filesystem. See fcntl(2). This option
           was deprecated in Linux 5.15.

       nomand
           Do not allow mandatory locks on this filesystem.

       _netdev
           The filesystem resides on a device that requires network access
           (used to prevent the system from attempting to mount these
           filesystems until the network has been enabled on the system).

       nofail
           Do not report errors for this device if it does not exist.

       relatime
           Update inode access times relative to modify or change time. Access
           time is only updated if the previous access time was earlier than or
           equal to the current modify or change time. (Similar to noatime, but
           it doesn’t break mutt(1) or other applications that need to know if
           a file has been read since the last time it was modified.)

           Since Linux 2.6.30, the kernel defaults to the behavior provided by
           this option (unless noatime was specified), and the strictatime
           option is required to obtain traditional semantics. In addition,
           since Linux 2.6.30, the file’s last access time is always updated if
           it is more than 1 day old.

       norelatime
           Do not use the relatime feature. See also the strictatime mount
           option.

       strictatime
           Allows to explicitly request full atime updates. This makes it
           possible for the kernel to default to relatime or noatime but still
           allow userspace to override it. For more details about the default
           system mount options see /proc/mounts.

       nostrictatime
           Use the kernel’s default behavior for inode access time updates.

       lazytime
           Only update times (atime, mtime, ctime) on the in-memory version of
           the file inode.

           This mount option significantly reduces writes to the inode table
           for workloads that perform frequent random writes to preallocated
           files.

           The on-disk timestamps are updated only when:

           •   the inode needs to be updated for some change unrelated to file
               timestamps

           •   the application employs fsync(2), syncfs(2), or sync(2)

           •   an undeleted inode is evicted from memory

           •   more than 24 hours have passed since the inode was written to
               disk.

       nolazytime
           Do not use the lazytime feature.

       suid
           Honor set-user-ID and set-group-ID bits or file capabilities when
           executing programs from this filesystem.

       nosuid
           Do not honor set-user-ID and set-group-ID bits or file capabilities
           when executing programs from this filesystem. In addition, SELinux
           domain transitions require permission nosuid_transition, which in
           turn needs also policy capability nnp_nosuid_transition.

       silent
           Turn on the silent flag.

       loud
           Turn off the silent flag.

       owner
           Allow an ordinary user to mount the filesystem if that user is the
           owner of the device. This option implies the options nosuid and
           nodev (unless overridden by subsequent options, as in the option
           line owner,dev,suid).

       remount
           Attempt to remount an already-mounted filesystem. This is commonly
           used to change the mount flags for a filesystem, especially to make
           a readonly filesystem writable.

Title: Filesystem-Independent Mount Options (cont.)
Summary
This section continues the description of filesystem-independent mount options for the `mount` command. It covers `relatime`, `norelatime`, `strictatime`, `nostrictatime`, `lazytime`, `nolazytime`, `suid`, `nosuid`, `silent`, `loud`, `owner` and `remount`. These options configure inode access time updates, lazy time updates, handling of set-user-ID and set-group-ID bits, silent/loud mode, owner-based mounting, and remounting an existing filesystem.
