incomplete and some are just placeholders but I wanted to try to get something at least into 2.2 on the grounds that what I have is a lot better than nothing. I also wanted to commit something which documents the interfaces in 2.2 before I start updating the documentation for 3.0. This is a definite 2.2 candidate and is also relavent to 2.1 if people still care about that branch.

|

.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm VFS_MOUNT
|
|
.Nd mount a filesystem
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Fd #include <sys/mount.h>
|
|
.Fd #include <sys/vnode.h>
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn VFS_MOUNT "struct mount *mp" "char *path" "caddr_t data" "struct nameidata *ndp" "struct proc *p"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
Mount a filesystem into the system's namespace.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Its arguments are:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width data
|
|
.It Ar mp
|
|
Structure representing the filesystem.
|
|
.It Ar path
|
|
Pathname where the filesystem is being mounted.
|
|
.It Ar data
|
|
Filesystem specific data. This should be read into the kernel using
|
|
.Xr copyin 9 .
|
|
.It Ar ndp
|
|
Contains the result of a
|
|
.Xr namei 9
|
|
call on the pathname of the mountpoint.
|
|
.It Ar p
|
|
Process which is mounting the filesystem.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
This is called both to mount new filesystems and to change the
|
|
attributes of an existing filesystem. If the
|
|
.Dv MNT_UPDATE
|
|
flag is set in
|
|
.Fa mp->mnt_flag
|
|
then the filesystem should update its internal state from the value of
|
|
.Fa mp->mnt_flag .
|
|
This can be used, for instance, to convert a read-only filesystem to
|
|
read-write. It is also used by
|
|
.Xr mountd 8
|
|
to update the NFS export information for the filesystem.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If the
|
|
.Dv MNT_UPDATE
|
|
flag is not specified, then this is a newly mounted filesystem. The
|
|
filesystem code should allocate and initialise
|
|
any private data needed to represent
|
|
the filesystem (it can use the
|
|
.Fa mp->mnt_data
|
|
field to store this information).
