+.SH NAME
+fsconfig \- Filesystem parameterisation
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf

+.br
+.B #include <sys/mount.h>
+.br
+.B #include <unistd.h>
+.br
+.B #include <sys/mount.h>

+.br
+.BI " const void __user *" value ", int " aux ");"
+.br
+.BI
+.fi
+.PP
+.IR Note :
+There is no glibc wrapper for this system call.
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+.BR fsconfig ()
+is used to supply parameters to and issue commands against a filesystem
+configuration context as set up by
+.BR fsopen (2)
+or
+.BR fspick (2).
+The context is supplied attached to the file descriptor specified by
+.I fd
+argument.
+.PP
+The
+.I cmd
+argument indicates the command to be issued, where some of the commands simply
+supply parameters to the context. The meaning of
+.IR key ", " value " and " aux
+are command-dependent; unless required for the command, these should be set to
+NULL or 0.
+.PP
+The available commands are:
+.TP
+.B FSCONFIG_SET_FLAG
+Set the parameter named by
+.IR key
+to true. This may incur error
+.B EINVAL
+if the parameter requires an argument.
+.TP
+.B FSCONFIG_SET_STRING
+Set the parameter named by
+.I key
+to a string. This may incur error
+.B EINVAL
+if the parser doesn't want a parameter here, wants a non-string or the string
+cannot be interpreted appropriately.
+.I value
+points to a NUL-terminated string.
+.TP
+.B FSCONFIG_SET_BINARY
+Set the parameter named by
+.I key
+to be a binary blob argument. This may cause
+.B EINVAL
+to be returned if the filesystem parser isn't expecting a binary blob and it
+can't be converted to something usable.
+.I value
+points to the data and
+.I aux
+indicates the size of the data.
+.TP
+.B FSCONFIG_SET_PATH
+Set the parameter named by
+.I key
+to the object at the provided path.
+.I value
+should point to a NULL-terminated pathname string and aux may indicate
+.B AT_FDCWD
+or a file descriptor indicating a directory from which to begin a relative
+pathwalk. This may return any errors incurred by the pathwalk and may return
+.B EINVAL
+if the parameter isn't expecting a path.
+.IP
+Note that FSCONFIG_SET_STRING can be used instead, implying AT_FDCWD.
+.TP
+.B FSCONFIG_SET_PATH_EMPTY
+As FSCONFIG_SET_PATH, but with
+.B AT_EMPTY_PATH
+applied to the pathwalk.
+.TP
+.B FSCONFIG_SET_FD
+Set the parameter named by
+.I key
+to the file descriptor specified by
+.IR aux .
+This will incur
+.B EINVAL
+if the parameter doesn't expect a file descriptor or
+.B EBADF
+if the file descriptor is invalid.
+.IP
+Note that FSCONFIG_SET_STRING can be used instead with the file descriptor
+passed as a decimal string.
+.TP
+.B FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE
+This command causes the filesystem to take the parameters set in the context
+and to try to create filesystem representation in the kernel. If it can share
+an existing one, it may do that instead if the filesystem type and parameters
+permit that. This is intended for use with
+.BR fsopen (2).
+.TP
+.B FSCONFIG_CMD_RECONFIGURE
+This command causes the filesystem to apply the parameters set in the context
+to an already existing filesystem representation in memory and to alter it.
+This is intended for use with
+.BR fspick (2),
+but may also by used against the context created by
+.BR fsopen()
+after
+.BR fsmount (2)
+has been called on it.

+.SH NAME
+fsopen, fsmount \- Filesystem parameterisation and mount creation
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+.B #include <sys/types.h>
+.br
+.B #include <sys/mount.h>
+.br
+.B #include <unistd.h>
+.br
+.BR "#include <fcntl.h> " "/* Definition of AT_* constants */"

+.PP
+.BI "int fsmount(int " fd ", unsigned int " flags ", unsigned int " mount_attrs );
+.fi
+.PP
+.IR Note :
+There are no glibc wrappers for these system calls.
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+.BR fsopen ()
+creates a blank filesystem configuration context within the kernel for the
+filesystem named in the
+.I fsname
+parameter, puts it into creation mode and attaches it to a file descriptor,
+which it then returns. The file descriptor can be marked close-on-exec by
+setting
+.B FSOPEN_CLOEXEC
+in
+.IR flags .
+.PP
+After calling fsopen(), the file descriptor should be passed to the
+.BR fsconfig (2)
+system call, using that to specify the desired filesystem and security
+parameters.
+.PP
+When the parameters are all set, the
+.BR fsconfig ()
+system call should then be called again with
+.B FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE
+as the command argument to effect the creation.
+.RS
+.PP
+.BR "[!]\ NOTE" :
+Depending on the filesystem type and parameters, this may rather share an
+existing in-kernel filesystem representation instead of creating a new one.
+In such a case, the parameters specified may be discarded or may overwrite the
+parameters set by a previous mount - at the filesystem's discretion.
+.RE
+.PP
+The file descriptor also serves as a channel by which more comprehensive error,
+warning and information messages may be retrieved from the kernel using
+.BR read (2).
+
+.PP
+Once the creation command has been successfully run on a context, the context
+is switched into need-mount mode which prevents further configuration. At
+this point,
+.BR fsmount ()
+should be called to create a mount object.
+.PP
+.BR fsmount ()
+takes the file descriptor returned by
+.BR fsopen ()
+and creates a mount object for the filesystem root specified there. The
+attributes of the mount object are set from the
+.I mount_attrs
+parameter. The attributes specify the propagation and mount restrictions to
+be applied to accesses through this mount.
+.PP
+The mount object is then attached to a new file descriptor that looks like one
+created by
+.BR open "(2) with " O_PATH " or " open_tree (2).
+This can be passed to
+.BR move_mount (2)
+to attach the mount object to a mountpoint, thereby completing the process.
+.PP
+The file descriptor returned by fsmount() is marked close-on-exec if
+FSMOUNT_CLOEXEC is specified in
+.IR flags .
+.PP
+After fsmount() has completed, the context created by fsopen() is reset and
+moved to reconfiguration state, allowing the new superblock to be
+reconfigured. See
+.BR fspick (2)
+for details.
+.PP
+
+.\"________________________________________________________
+.SS Message Retrieval Interface
+The context file descriptor may be queried for message strings at any time by
+calling
+.BR read (2)
+on the file descriptor. This will return formatted messages that are prefixed
+to indicate their class:
+.TP
+\fB"e <message>"\fP
+An error message string was logged.
+.TP
+\fB"i <message>"\fP
+An informational message string was logged.
+.TP
+\fB"w <message>"\fP
+An warning message string was logged.
+.PP
+Messages are removed from the queue as they're read.
+
+.\"________________________________________________________
+.SH EXAMPLES
+To illustrate the process, here's an example whereby this can be used to mount
+an ext4 filesystem on /dev/sdb1 onto /mnt.
+.PP
+.in +4n
+.nf
+sfd = fsopen("ext4", FSOPEN_CLOEXEC);
+fsconfig(sfd, FSCONFIG_SET_FLAG, "ro", NULL, 0);
+fsconfig(sfd, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "source", "/dev/sdb1", 0);
+fsconfig(sfd, FSCONFIG_SET_FLAG, "noatime", NULL, 0);
+fsconfig(sfd, FSCONFIG_SET_FLAG, "acl", NULL, 0);
+fsconfig(sfd, FSCONFIG_SET_FLAG, "user_attr", NULL, 0);
+fsconfig(sfd, FSCONFIG_SET_FLAG, "iversion", NULL, 0);
+fsconfig(sfd, FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE, NULL, NULL, 0);
+mfd = fsmount(sfd, FSMOUNT_CLOEXEC, MS_RELATIME);
+move_mount(mfd, "", sfd, AT_FDCWD, "/mnt", MOVE_MOUNT_F_EMPTY_PATH);
+.fi
+.in
+.PP
+Here, an ext4 context is created first and attached to sfd. This is then told
+where its source will be, given a bunch of options and created. Then
+fsmount() is called to create a mount object and
+.BR move_mount (2)
+is called to attach it to its intended mountpoint.
+.PP
+And here's an example of mounting from an NFS server and setting a Smack
+security module label on it too:
+.PP
+.in +4n
+.nf
+sfd = fsopen("nfs", 0);
+fsconfig(sfd, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "source", "example.com/pub/linux", 0);

+fsconfig(sfd, FSCONFIG_SET_FLAG, "rdma", NULL, 0);
+fsconfig(sfd, FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE, NULL, NULL, 0);
+mfd = fsmount(sfd, 0, MS_NODEV);

+.fi
+.PP
+.IR Note :
+There is no glibc wrapper for this system call.
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+.BR fspick ()
+creates a new filesystem configuration context within the kernel and attaches a
+pre-existing superblock to it so that it can be reconfigured (similar to
+.BR mount (8)
+with the "-o remount" option). The configuration context is marked as being in
+reconfiguration mode and attached to a file descriptor, which is returned to
+the caller. This can be marked close-on-exec by setting
+.B FSPICK_CLOEXEC
+in
+.IR flags .
+.PP
+The target is whichever superblock backs the object determined by
+.IR dfd ", " pathname " and " flags .
+The following can be set in
+.I flags
+to control the pathwalk to that object:
+.TP
+.B FSPICK_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW
+Don't follow symbolic links in the terminal component of the path.
+.TP
+.B FSPICK_NO_AUTOMOUNT
+Don't follow automounts in the terminal component of the path.
+.TP
+.B FSPICK_EMPTY_PATH
+Allow an empty string to be specified as the pathname. This allows
+.I dirfd
+to specify a path exactly.
+.PP
+After calling fspick(), the file descriptor should be passed to the
+.BR fsconfig (2)
+system call, using that to specify the desired changes to filesystem and
+security parameters.
+.PP
+When the parameters are all set, the
+.BR fsconfig ()
+system call should then be called again with
+.B FSCONFIG_CMD_RECONFIGURE
+as the command argument to effect the reconfiguration.
+.PP
+After the reconfiguration has taken place, the context is wiped clean (apart
+from the superblock attachment, which remains) and can be reused to make
+another reconfiguration.
+.PP
+The file descriptor also serves as a channel by which more comprehensive error,
+warning and information messages may be retrieved from the kernel using
+.BR read (2).
+
+

+An informational message string was logged.
+.TP
