.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Em NOTE!
|
|
This manual page describes features specific to the
|
|
.Xr rump 3
|
|
file server.
|
|
Please see
|
|
.Xr mount_ext2fs 8
|
|
for a full description of the available command line options.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility can be used to mount ext2fs file systems.
|
|
It uses
|
|
.Xr rump 3
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr p2k 3
|
|
to facilitate running the file system as a server in userspace.
|
|
As opposed to
|
|
.Xr mount_ext2fs 8 ,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
does not use file system code within the kernel and therefore does
|
|
not require kernel support except
|
|
.Xr puffs 4 .
|
|
Apart from a minor speed penalty there is no downside with respect to
|
|
in-kernel code.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Nm
|
|
does not require using
|
|
.Xr vnconfig 8
|
|
for mounts from regular files and the file path can be passed
|
|
directly as the
|
|
.Ar image
|
|
parameter.
|
|
In fact, the use of
|
|
.Xr vnconfig 8
|
|
is discouraged, since it is unable to properly deal with images on
|
|
sparse files.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
In case the image contains multiple partitions, the desired partition
|
|
must be indicated by appending the token
|
|
.Dq %DISKLABEL:p%
|
|
to the
|
|
.Ar image
|
|
path.
|
|
The letter
|
|
.Dq p
|
|
specifies the partition as obtained via
|
|
.Xr disklabel 8 .
|
|
For example, to mount partition
|
|
.Dq e
|
|
from image
|
|
.Pa /tmp/wd0.img ,
|
|
use
|
|
.Dq /tmp/wd0.img%DISKLABEL:e% .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
It is recommended that untrusted file system images be mounted with
|
|
.Nm
|
|
instead of
|
|
.Xr mount_ext2fs 8 .
|
|
Corrupt file system images commonly cause the file system
|
|
to crash the entire kernel, but with
|
|
.Nm
|
|
only the userspace server process will dump core.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
To use
|
|
.Nm
|
|
via
|
|
.Xr mount 8 ,
|
|
the flags
|
|
.Fl o Ar rump
|
|
and
|
|
.Fl t Ar ext2fs
|
|
should be given.
|
|
Similarly,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
is used instead of
|
|
.Xr mount_ext2fs 8
|
|
if
|
|
.Dq rump
|
|
is added to the options field of
|
|
.Xr fstab 5 .

.Nm
|
|
utility first appeared in

|
.Nx 5.0 .
