|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility attaches an instance of the portal daemon
|
|
to the global file system namespace.
|
|
The conventional mount point is
|
|
.Pa /p .
|
|
.\" .PA /dev .
|
|
This command is normally executed by
|
|
.Xr mount 8
|
|
at boot time.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The options are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width indent
|
|
.It Fl o
|
|
Options are specified with a
|
|
.Fl o
|
|
flag followed by a comma separated string of options.
|
|
See the
|
|
.Xr mount 8
|
|
man page for possible options and their meanings.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The portal daemon provides an
|
|
.Em open
|
|
service.
|
|
Objects opened under the portal mount point are
|
|
dynamically created by the portal daemon according
|
|
to rules specified in the named configuration file.
|
|
Using this mechanism allows descriptors such as sockets
|
|
to be made available in the file system namespace.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The portal daemon works by being passed the full pathname
|
|
of the object being opened.
|
|
The daemon creates an appropriate descriptor according
|
|
to the rules in the configuration file, and then passes the descriptor back
|
|
to the calling process as the result of the open system call.
|
|
.Sh NAMESPACE
|
|
By convention, the portal daemon divides the namespace into sub-namespaces,
|
|
each of which handles objects of a particular type.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following sub-namespaces are currently implemented:
|
|
.Pa fs ,
|
|
.Pa pipe ,
|
|
.Pa tcp ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Pa tcplisten .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Pa fs
|
|
namespace opens the named file, starting back at the root directory.
|
|
This can be used to provide a controlled escape path from
|
|
a chrooted environment.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Pa pipe
|
|
namespace executes the named command, starting back at the root directory.
|
|
The command's arguments can be provided after the command's name,
|
|
by separating them with spaces or tabs.
|
|
Files opened for reading in the
|
|
.Pa pipe
|
|
namespace will receive their input from the command's standard output;
|
|
files opened for writing will send the data of write operations
|
|
to the command's standard input.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Pa tcp
|
|
namespace takes a slash separated hostname and a port and
|
|
creates an open TCP/IP connection.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Pa tcplisten
|
|
namespace takes a slash separated hostname and port and creates a TCP/IP
|
|
socket bound to the given hostname-port pair.
|
|
The hostname may be
|
|
specified as "ANY" to allow any other host to connect to the socket.
|
|
A
|
|
port number of 0 will dynamically allocate a port, this can be
|
|
discovered by calling
|
|
.Xr getsockname 2
|
|
with the returned file descriptor.
|
|
Privileged ports can only be bound to
|
|
by the super-user.
|
|
.Sh "CONFIGURATION FILE"
|
|
The configuration file contains a list of rules.
|
|
Each rule takes one line and consists of two or more
|
|
whitespace separated fields.
|
|
A hash (``#'') character causes the remainder of a line to
|
|
be ignored.
|
|
Blank lines are ignored.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The first field is a pathname prefix to match
|
|
against the requested pathname.
|
|
If a match is found, the second field
|
|
tells the daemon what type of object to create.
|
|
Subsequent fields are passed to the creation function.
