hey,

i only recently joined/realized i could post to this list ... if there
is an established etiquette/procedure that i'm breaking (now or ever),
just lmk.

... btw, you should be able to eliminate the call to `tac` via
`findmnt -d backward [...]`.

however, i wrote a simple routine semi-recently for a project that may
be useful -- it reads `/proc/self/mountinfo` directly (like findmnt),
but it also makes use of `tsort` to automatically order the umounts
properly (findmnt doesn't seem to do this) -- it can handle any
arbitrary depth, original mount order, `--bind`, and `--move` (the
latter will unsort the mountinfo table):

-------------------------------------------------------------------
# cat umountall.sh
#!/bin/bash
IFS=;
mnts=$(sort -k1n /proc/self/mountinfo | tr -s ' ' '\t');
topo=$(echo ${mnts} | cut -f1,2 | tsort | nl -w1 | sort -k2n);
join -o1.1,2.5 -t$'\t' -12 -21 - <(echo ${mnts}) <<<${topo} | sort -k1n;

# ./umountall.sh

2	/dev/shm

-------------------------------------------------------------------

execution shows you [a] proper umount order -- not the best example
because my system is not that interesting, but it really should work
for *anything* so long as the kernel doesn't lie.

more fields added by modifying the `join` command, eg. `join
-o1.1,2.5,2.6` additionally outputs the mount options.

pathnames are octal(?) encoded, thus easy to handle, but need to be
expanded before actual umount (`echo -e` or `printf`[?] or ???)

all binaries are in `coreutils` package

there was mention of a shudown hook after a pivot_root recently --
this should work well for that.  if there is a simpler way to
accomplish this, i'd love to here that as well.

this isn't my original but it's tested and functions the same.  the
original just did a little more like unmount everything under a
specific path, or filter stuff out (eg. /proc, /dev, ...) by using the
unique mount id; can provide all that if interested.
