mount

MOUNT(2)							System Calls Manual							  MOUNT(2)

NAME

       mount, umount - mount or umount a file system

SYNOPSIS

       #include <unistd.h>
       #include <sys/mount.h>

       int mount(char *special, char *name, int flag)
       int umount(char *name)

DESCRIPTION

       Mount()	tells the system that the file system special is to be mounted on the file name, effectively overlaying name with the file tree on
       special.  Name may of any type, except that if the root of special is a directory, then name must also be a directory.  Special must  be  a
       block  special file, except for loopback mounts.  For loopback mounts a normal file or directory is used for special, which must be seen as
       the root of a virtual device.  Flag is 0 for a read-write mount, 1 for read-only.

       Umount() removes the connection between a device and a mount point, name may refer to either of them.  If more than one device  is  mounted
       on  the	same  mount  point  then unmounting at the mount point removes the last mounted device, unmounting a device removes precisely that
       device.	The unmount will only succeed if none of the files on the device are in use.

       Both calls may only be executed by the super-user.
