                <para><filename>systemd-remount-fs.service</filename>
                is an early-boot service that applies mount options
                listed in
                <citerefentry><refentrytitle>fstab</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
                to the root file system, the <filename>/usr</filename>
                file system and the kernel API virtual file
                systems. This is required so that the mount options of
                these file systems -- which are pre-mounted by the
                kernel, the initial RAM disk, container environments
                or system manager code -- are updated to those listed
                in <filename>/etc/fstab</filename>. This service
                ignores normal file systems and only changes the root
                file system (i.e. <filename>/</filename>),
                <filename>/usr</filename> and the virtual kernel API
                file systems such as <filename>/proc</filename>,
                <filename>/sys</filename> or
                <filename>/dev/</filename>. This service executes no
                operation if <filename>/etc/fstab</filename> does not
                exist or lists no entries for the mentioned file systems.</para>
