RUMP_SYSPUFFS(8)					    BSD System Manager's Manual 					  RUMP_SYSPUFFS(8)

NAME

     rump_syspuffs -- mount a puffs file server with a userspace puffs loop

SYNOPSIS

     file-system PUFFS
     pseudo-device putter

     rump_syspuffs file_server arguments

DESCRIPTION

     The rump_syspuffs utility can be used to mount any puffs(3) file server so that the requests are passed through the kernel puffs code in
     userspace as well.  Therefore the approximate callgraph looks a little like the following, where k and u denote code running in the kernel
     space and userspace, respectively: puffs vfs (k) -> libpuffs (u) -> p2k (u) -> puffs vfs (u) -> libpuffs (u) -> file server (u).  The
     response path is the same, but in reverse.

     In its current state, rump_syspuffs is most useful as a proof of concept for file system distribution and for developing and debugging the
     kernel portion of puffs.

EXAMPLES

     Mount a file system with sshfs:
	   rump_syspuffs mount_psshfs server.address /mnt

     Mount an ntfs file system using ntfs-3g (from pkgsrc/filesystems/fuse-ntfs-3g), set the default uid to 1323:
	   rump_syspuffs ntfs-3g -o uid=1323 /path/to/filesystem /mnt

HISTORY

     The rump_syspuffs debugging utility first appeared in NetBSD 5.0.

RUMP_SMBFS(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 					     RUMP_SMBFS(8)

NAME

     rump_smbfs -- mount a smbfs share with a userspace server

SYNOPSIS

     file-system PUFFS
     pseudo-device putter

     rump_smbfs [options] share mountpoint

DESCRIPTION

     NOTE! This manual page describes features specific to the rump(3) file server.  Please see mount_smbfs(8) for a full description of the
     available command line options.

     The rump_smbfs utility can be used to mount smbfs file systems.  It uses rump(3) and p2k(3) to facilitate running the file system as a server
     in userspace.  As opposed to mount_smbfs(8), rump_smbfs does not use file system code within the kernel and therefore does not require kernel
     support except puffs(4).  Apart from a minor speed penalty there is no downside with respect to in-kernel code.

     Even though the rump_smbfs file system client runs within a virtual rump kernel in userspace, it uses host network services (by means of
     ``rump sockin'').	This means that regardless of whether using rump_smbfs or mount_smbfs(8), the same network configurations will be used.
     Currently, ``sockin'' supports IPv4.

     To use rump_smbfs via mount(8), the flags -o rump and -t smbfs should be given.  Similarly, rump_smbfs is used instead of mount_smbfs(8) if
     ``rump'' is added to the options field of fstab(5).

HISTORY

     The rump_smbfs utility first appeared in NetBSD 6.0.
