system-specific values. Submitted by Chris Demetriou in Nov 1995 (!)
in PR kern/1781, modified only slighly by me.
This is enabled on a per-mount basis with the MNT_MAGICLINKS mount
flag. It can be enabled at mountroot() time by building the kernel
with the ROOTFS_MAGICLINKS option.
The following magic strings are supported by the implementation:
@machine value of MACHINE for the system
@machine_arch value of MACHINE_ARCH for the system
@hostname the system host name, as set with sethostname()
@domainname the system domain name, as set with setdomainname()
@kernel_ident the kernel config file name
@osrelease the releaes number of the OS
@ostype the name of the OS (always "NetBSD" for NetBSD)
Example usage:
mkdir /arch/i386/bin
mkdir /arch/sparc/bin
ln -s /arch/@machine_arch/bin /bin
high-order bit set", as this error is obsolete.
Eventually we may want to add code to some of the "optional" filesystems
(msdosfs, etc.) that checks for illegal characters. At that time it would
be appropriate to reintroduce this error with appropriate text. Perhaps
"The pathname contains a character that is not valid for filesystem type".
Use .Fn rather than .Nm macro in HISTORY and STANDARDS sections.
Use .At and .St macros instead of spelling out "Version 6 UNIX",
"IEEE 1003.1-1988 (POSIX)", etc.
