|

.Sh NAME
|
||
|

.Nm mount_fdesc

|
.Nd mount the file-descriptor file system
|
||
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
.Nm mount_fdesc
|
||
|
|
.Op Fl F Ar fsoptions
|
||
|
|
.Pa fdesc
|
||
|
|
.Pa mount_point
|
||
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
The
|
||
|
|
.Nm mount_fdesc
|
||
|
|
command attaches an instance of the per-process file descriptor
|
||
|
|
namespace to the global filesystem namespace.
|
||
|
|
The conventional mount point is
|
||
|
|
.Pa /dev
|
||
|
|
and the filesystem should be union mounted in order to augment,
|
||
|
|
rather than replace, the existing entries in
|
||
|
|
.Pa /dev .
|
||
|
|
This command is normally executed by
|
||
|
|
.Xr mount 8
|
||
|
|
at boot time.
|
||
|
|
.Pp
|
||
|
|
The contents of the mount point are
|
||
|
|
.Pa fd ,
|
||
|
|
.Pa stderr ,
|
||
|
|
.Pa stdin ,
|
||
|
|
.Pa stdout
|
||
|
|
and
|
||
|
|
.Pa tty .
|
||
|
|
.Pp
|
||
|
|
.Pa fd
|
||
|
|
is a directory whose contents
|
||
|
|
appear as a list of numbered files
|
||
|
|
which correspond to the open files of the process reading the
|
||
|
|
directory.
|
||
|
|
The files
|
||
|
|
.Pa /dev/fd/0
|
||
|
|
through
|
||
|
|
.Pa /dev/fd/#
|
||
|
|
refer to file descriptors which can be accessed through the file
|
||
|
|
system.
|
||
|
|
If the file descriptor is open and the mode the file is being opened
|
||
|
|
with is a subset of the mode of the existing descriptor, the call:
|
||
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
||
|
|
fd = open("/dev/fd/0", mode);
|
||
|
|
.Ed
|
||
|
|
.Pp
|
||
|
|
and the call:
|
||
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
||
|
|
fd = fcntl(0, F_DUPFD, 0);
|
||
|
|
.Ed
|
||
|
|
.Pp
|
||
|
|
are equivalent.
|
||
|
|
.Pp
|
||
|
|
The files
|
||
|
|
.Pa /dev/stdin ,
|
||
|
|
.Pa /dev/stdout
|
||
|
|
and
|
||
|
|
.Pa /dev/stderr
|
||
|
|
appear as symlinks to the relevant entry in the
|
||
|
|
.Pa /dev/fd
|
||
|
|
sub-directory.
|
||
|
|
Opening them is equivalent to the following calls:
|
||
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
||
|
|
fd = fcntl(STDIN_FILENO, F_DUPFD, 0);
|
||
|
|
fd = fcntl(STDOUT_FILENO, F_DUPFD, 0);
|
||
|
|
fd = fcntl(STDERR_FILENO, F_DUPFD, 0);
|
||
|

Flags to the
|
||
|
|
.Xr open 2
|
||
|
|
call other than
|
||
|
|
.Dv O_RDONLY ,
|
||
|
|
.Dv O_WRONLY
|
||
|
|
and
|
||
|
|
.Dv O_RDWR
|
||
|
|
are ignored.
|
||
|
|
.Pp
|
||
|
|
The
|
||
|
|
.Pa /dev/tty
|
||
|
|
entry is an indirect reference to the current process's controlling terminal.
|
||
|
|
It appears as a named pipe (FIFO) but behaves in exactly the same way as
|
||
|
|
the real controlling terminal device.
