Description David Tardon 2022-05-10 08:54:44 UTC

This bug was initially created as a copy of Bug #1940973

I am copying this bug because: 
It still applies.


Description of problem:

Mount a volume that is named in such a way that after systemd-escape, its name becomes greather than 256 characters. 

This causes endless messages in journal logs:

Failed to set up mount unit: Invalid argument


Expected results:

systemd should support mount points bigger than 256 chars - https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/14294


Additional info:

Additionally the log line should - at very minimum log which mount point is problematic.
