I’ve been using Arch for several years now and learnt so much from following the installation guide. I am curious to understand the following.
Yesterday I noticed that my EFI partition is mounted at both /boot and /efi. My fstab file mounts the EFI partition at /boot but not at /efi. My question is what mounts the EFI partition at /efi? I can unmount both mount points but if I try to list the contents of /efi my EFI partition is “magically” mounted again (confirmed by lsblk). What mechanism is doing this? It’s not a problem, just something that surprised me when trying to diagnose an issue on another computer
I use systemd-boot and pacman has always updated kernels flawlessly.

The wikis are not clear enough?

Previous experience has shown me that the answer is nearly always in the wiki. However I’ve spent quite a bit of time reading up on this before asking my question. I discovered that systemd automount can mount a partition (which was new knowledge for me) but I’ve found no evidence that is set up on my system.
I’d appreciate a hint about where in the wiki I can find an answer.
Thanks in advance for any time you might spend on this.
