LIBPERFUSE(2) BSD System Calls Manual LIBPERFUSE(2)
NAME
perfuse_mount, perfuse_open -- Request a puffs(3) mount from perfused(8)
LIBRARY
library ``libperfuse''
SYNOPSIS
#include <perfuse.h>
int
perfuse_mount(const char *source, const char *dir, const char *filesystemtype, long int mountflags, void *data);
int
perfuse_open(const char *path, int flags);
DESCRIPTION
perfuse_mount() sends a mount request to perfused(8). It is intended as a drop-in replacement for mount(2) for FUSE file systems daemons and
libraries, so that they can work with perfused(8).
The function prototype mimics Linux's mount(2), with the following arguments:
source The source file system that will appear in df(1) and mount(8) listings. Defaults to /dev/fuse if NULL.
dir The file system mount point.
filesystemtype
The file system type, as displayed by df(1) and mount(8). Defaults to ``fuse'' if NULL.
mountflags
This contains the same value as a mount(2) flags argument.
data This contains the same value as a mount(2) data argument.
perfuse_open() is a drop-in replacement for the open(2) system call where /dev/fuse is used. If path is different than /dev/fuse,
perfuse_open() handles control to the regular open(2).
RETURN VALUES
perfuse_mount() returns a file descriptor to the /dev/fuse socket on success, and causes exit on failure.
