Support is available for filesystems that wish to do automounting support (such
|
||||
as kAFS which can be found in fs/afs/). This facility includes allowing
|
||||
in-kernel mounts to be performed and mountpoint degradation to be
|
||||
requested. The latter can also be requested by userspace.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
======================
|
||||
IN-KERNEL AUTOMOUNTING
|
||||
======================
|
||||
|
||||
A filesystem can now mount another filesystem on one of its directories by the
|
||||
following procedure:
|
||||
|
||||
(1) Give the directory a follow_link() operation.
|
||||
|
||||
When the directory is accessed, the follow_link op will be called, and
|
||||
it will be provided with the location of the mountpoint in the nameidata
|
||||
structure (vfsmount and dentry).
|
||||
|
||||
(2) Have the follow_link() op do the following steps:
|
||||
|
||||
(a) Call vfs_kern_mount() to call the appropriate filesystem to set up a
|
||||
superblock and gain a vfsmount structure representing it.
|
||||
|
||||
(b) Copy the nameidata provided as an argument and substitute the dentry
|
||||
argument into it the copy.
|
||||
|
||||
(c) Call do_add_mount() to install the new vfsmount into the namespace's
|
||||
mountpoint tree, thus making it accessible to userspace. Use the
|
||||
nameidata set up in (b) as the destination.
|
||||
|
||||
If the mountpoint will be automatically expired, then do_add_mount()
|
||||
should also be given the location of an expiration list (see further
|
||||
down).
|
||||
|
||||
(d) Release the path in the nameidata argument and substitute in the new
|
||||
vfsmount and its root dentry. The ref counts on these will need
|
||||
incrementing.
|
||||
|
||||
Then from userspace, you can just do something like:
|
||||
|
||||
[root@andromeda root]# mount -t afs \#root.afs. /afs
|
||||
[root@andromeda root]# ls /afs
|
||||
asd cambridge cambridge.redhat.com grand.central.org
|
||||
[root@andromeda root]# ls /afs/cambridge
|
||||
afsdoc
|
||||
[root@andromeda root]# ls /afs/cambridge/afsdoc/
|
||||
ChangeLog html LICENSE pdf RELNOTES-1.2.2
|
||||
|
||||
And then if you look in the mountpoint catalogue, you'll see something like:
|
||||
|
||||
[root@andromeda root]# cat /proc/mounts
|
||||
...
|
||||
#root.afs. /afs afs rw 0 0
|
||||
#root.cell. /afs/cambridge.redhat.com afs rw 0 0
|
||||
#afsdoc. /afs/cambridge.redhat.com/afsdoc afs rw 0 0
|
||||
|
||||
|

===========================
|
||||
AUTOMATIC MOUNTPOINT EXPIRY
|
||||
===========================
|
||||
|
||||
Automatic expiration of mountpoints is easy, provided you've mounted the
|
||||
mountpoint to be expired in the automounting procedure outlined above.
|
||||
|
||||
To do expiration, you need to follow these steps:
|
||||
|
||||
(3) Create at least one list off which the vfsmounts to be expired can be
|
||||
hung. Access to this list will be governed by the vfsmount_lock.
|
||||
|
||||
(4) In step (2c) above, the call to do_add_mount() should be provided with a
|
||||
pointer to this list. It will hang the vfsmount off of it if it succeeds.
|
||||
|
||||
(5) When you want mountpoints to be expired, call mark_mounts_for_expiry()
|
||||
with a pointer to this list. This will process the list, marking every
|
||||
vfsmount thereon for potential expiry on the next call.
|
||||
|
||||
If a vfsmount was already flagged for expiry, and if its usage count is 1
|
||||
(it's only referenced by its parent vfsmount), then it will be deleted
|
||||
from the namespace and thrown away (effectively unmounted).
|
||||
|
||||
It may prove simplest to simply call this at regular intervals, using
|
||||
some sort of timed event to drive it.
|
||||
|
||||
The expiration flag is cleared by calls to mntput. This means that expiration
|
||||
will only happen on the second expiration request after the last time the
|
||||
mountpoint was accessed.
|
||||
|
||||
If a mountpoint is moved, it gets removed from the expiration list. If a bind
|
||||
mount is made on an expirable mount, the new vfsmount will not be on the
|
||||
expiration list and will not expire.
|
||||
|
||||
If a namespace is copied, all mountpoints contained therein will be copied,
|
||||
and the copies of those that are on an expiration list will be added to the
|
||||
same expiration list.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=======================
|
||||
USERSPACE DRIVEN EXPIRY
|
||||
=======================
|
||||
|
||||
As an alternative, it is possible for userspace to request expiry of any
|
||||
mountpoint (though some will be rejected - the current process's idea of the
|
||||
rootfs for example). It does this by passing the MNT_EXPIRE flag to
|
||||
umount(). This flag is considered incompatible with MNT_FORCE and MNT_DETACH.
|
||||
|
||||
If the mountpoint in question is in referenced by something other than
|
||||
umount() or its parent mountpoint, an EBUSY error will be returned and the
|
||||
mountpoint will not be marked for expiration or unmounted.
|
||||
|
||||
If the mountpoint was not already marked for expiry at that time, an EAGAIN
|
||||
error will be given and it won't be unmounted.
|
||||
|
||||
Otherwise if it was already marked and it wasn't referenced, unmounting will
|
||||
take place as usual.
|
||||
|
||||
Again, the expiration flag is cleared every time anything other than umount()
|
||||
looks at a mountpoint.
