.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm libautofs
|
|
library provides a "mostly" stable interface to the
|
|
.Xr autofs 9
|
|
file system.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The interface to
|
|
.Xr autofs 9
|
|
is managed via handles of type
|
|
.Fa autoh_t
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa autoreq_t
|
|
which refer to handles to
|
|
.Xr autofs 9
|
|
mount points and requests respectively.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn autoh_get
|
|
function returns a handle to an
|
|
.Xr autofs 9
|
|
file system based on the
|
|
.Fa path
|
|
parameter.
|
|
The handle returned should be freed via the
|
|
.Fn autoh_free
|
|
function.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn autoh_getall
|
|
function returns an array of handles to all mounted
|
|
.Xr autofs 9
|
|
file systems, each of which should be released via the
|
|
.Fn autoh_free
|
|
function or released en-mass via the
|
|
.Fn autoh_freeall
|
|
function.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn autoh_fd
|
|
function returns a file descriptor that can be used with
|
|
.Xr select 2
|
|
or
|
|
.Xr poll 2
|
|
to check for "exceptional" data to detect an
|
|
.Xr autofs 9
|
|
event.
|
|
Users of
|
|
.Xr select 2
|
|
should set the fd in the
|
|
.Fa exceptfds
|
|
fd_set.
|
|
Users of
|
|
.Xr poll 2
|
|
should set POLLPRI in the pollfd
|
|
.Fa fds
|
|
argument.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn autoh_mp
|
|
function returns the path to the autofs file system that the
|
|
.Fa hndl
|
|
is derived from.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn autoreq_get
|
|
function returns an array of autofs requests in
|
|
.Fa reqpp ,
|
|
the number of requests is stored into
|
|
.Fa cntp .
|
|
Each request should be released using the
|
|
.Fn autoreq_free
|
|
function.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Requests that are retrieved via the
|
|
.Fn autoreq_get
|
|
are served via the "autoreq_" functions.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following functions returns information about the request.
|
|
.Bl -tag -width indent
|
|
.It Fn autoreq_getop
|
|
return the operation type of the request, that would be one of
|
|
AUTOREQ_OP_UNKNOWN, AUTOREQ_OP_LOOKUP, AUTOREQ_OP_STAT, AUTOREQ_OP_READDIR
|
|
depending on the type of request that
|
|
.Xr autofs 9
|
|
requires service from.
|
|
.It Fn autoreq_getpath
|
|
return the path of the mountpoint associated with the request
|
|
.Fa req .
|
|
.It Fn autoreq_getino
|
|
return the inode associated with the request
|
|
.Fa req .
|
|
.It Fn autoreq_getdirno
|
|
return the directory inode associated with the request
|
|
.Fa req .
|
|
.It Fn autoreq_getaux
|
|
return the auxiliary data associated with the request
|
|
.Fa req .
|
|
.It Fn autoreq_getoffset
|
|
return the offset request associated with the request
|
|
.Fa req .
|
|
(used for readdir request)
|
|
.It Fn autoreq_getxid
|
|
return the transaction id associated with an autofs request, these
|
|
are unique per mount point, but not system wide.
|
|
They can be used
|
|
for debugging to ensure requests are being accepted by the kernel.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following functions allow one to set the response sent to
|
|
.Xr autofs 9
|
|
to the requesting userland application.
|
|
.Bl -tag -width indent
|
|
.It Fn autoreq_setino
|
|
Set the request
|
|
.Fa req
|
|
inode to
|
|
.Fa ino ,
|
|
this is typically unused.
|
|
.It Fn autoreq_seterrno
|
|
set the error returned to the application sending the request, typically
|
|
this is left alone, or set to ENOENT if the request is for a non-existent
|
|
name.
|
|
The default error is no error.
|
|
Meaning the application will see
|
|
a successful return.
|
|
.It Fn autoreq_setaux
|
|
used to set the auxiliary data for a request, currently used to set
|
|
the dirent structures for serving a readdir request.
|
|
Default is no
|
|
auxiliary data.
|
|
.It Fn autoreq_seteof
|
|
used to set the eof flag for readdir requests (default is not eof.)
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The functions
|
|
.Fn autoh_togglepath
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn autoh_togglefd
|
|
are used to set options on an
|
|
.Xr autofs 9
|
|
directory via
|
|
.Fa path
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa fd
|
|
respectively.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa pid
|
|
argument should be set to the pid of the process serving
|
|
.Xr autofs 9
|
|
requests, or -1 to disable the option.
|
|
The options are
|
|
.Bl -tag -width AUTO_INDIRECT
|
|
.It Fa AUTO_MOUNTER
|
|
set this process as the one responsible for the
|
|
.Xr autofs 9
|
|
node, if this process exits, then requests into the autofs will begin to fail.
|
|
.It Fa AUTO_BROWSE
|
|
dispatch directory read requests for this node to the process identified by
|
|
.Fa pid .
|
|
Specifically, calls to
|
|
.Xr getdirentries 2
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr getdents 2
|
|
will be routed to userland after the current actual directory contents
|
|
are read into userland.
|
|
.It Fa AUTO_DIRECT
|
|
Set the directory as a mount trigger.
|
|
Any request to enter the directory
|
|
will trigger a callback into the process
|
|
.Fa pid .
|
|
.It Fa AUTO_INDIRECT
|
|
Set the directory as an indirect trigger.
|
|
Any request for an entry inside
|
|
the directory will be routed to the process identified by
|
|
.Fa pid .
