.Nm vfs_getnewfsid
|
|
.Nd "allocate a new filesystem identifier"
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In sys/param.h
|
|
.In sys/mount.h
|
|
.Ft void
|
|
.Fn vfs_getnewfsid "struct mount *mp"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn vfs_getnewfsid
|
|
function allocates a new filesystem identifier for the mount point given.
|
|
Filesystems typically call
|
|
.Fn vfs_getnewfsid
|
|
in their mount routine in order to acquire a unique ID within the system
|
|
which can later be used to uniquely identify the filesystem via calls such as
|
|
.Xr vfs_getvfs 9 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The actual
|
|
.Vt fsid
|
|
is made up of two 32 bit integers, that are stored in the
|
|
.Vt statfs
|
|
structure of
|
|
.Fa mp .
|
|
The first integer is unique in the set of mounted filesystems,
|
|
while the second holds the filesystem type.
