 .B "mount --move olddir newdir"
 .RE
 
+Since Linux 2.6.15 it is possible to mark a mount and its submounts as shared,
+private, slave or unbindable. A shared mount provides ability to create mirrors
+of that mount such that mounts and umounts within any of the mirrors propagate
+to the other mirror. A slave mount receives propagation from its master, but
+any not vice-versa.  A private mount carries no propagation abilities.  A
+unbindable mount is a private mount which cannot cloned through a bind
+operation. Detailed semantics is documented in Documentation/sharedsubtree.txt
+file in the kernel source tree.
