50.Sh SYNOPSIS
51.Nm mount_ Ns Ar fsname
52.Op Fl o Ar options
53.Ar "fs"
54.Ar mount_point
55.Sh DESCRIPTION
56The
57.Nm
58command is a generic mechanism for attaching ``standard'' filesystems to
59the filesystem.  The
60.Nm
61command currently supports the following filesystems:
62.Nm fdesc ,
63.Nm linprocfs
64and
65.Nm procfs .
66A ``standard'' filesystem is one which:
67.Bl -enum -offset indent
68.It
69accepts only the standard
70.Fl o
71options
72.Dq ro
73.Pq Dq rdonly ,
74.Dq rw ,
75.Dq nodev ,
76.Dq noexec ,
77.Dq nosuid ,
78and
79.Dq union .
80.It
81has a kernel filesystem module name the same as its user-visible name.
82.It
83requires no other special processing on the part of the
84.Nm
85command.
86.El
87.Pp
88The options are as follows:
89.Bl -tag -width indent
90.It Fl o
91Options are specified with a
92.Fl o
93flag followed by a comma separated string of options.
94See the
95.Xr mount 8
96man page for possible options and their meanings.
97.El
98.Pp
99The
100.Nm
101command examines its zeroth command-line argument (the name by which
102it was called) to determine the type of filesystem to be mounted.  If
103it is called by a name which does not end in
104.Dq Li _ Ns Ar fsname ,
105.Nm
106will assume (for compatibility
107with
108.Xr mount 8 )
109that the zeroth argument contains only the name of the filesystem type.
110The
111.Nm
112command is normally installed with appropriate links to commands for
113the distributed filesystems which can be mounted in this way;
114for information on the function of each filesystem, see the manual page
115for that specific
116.Nm mount_ Ns Ar fsname
117command.
118.Pp
119Refer to the following manual pages for detailed information
120on these file system:
121.Xr fdesc 5 ,
122.Xr linprocfs 5
123and
124.Xr procfs 5 .
125.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
126.Bl -diag
127.It argv[0] must end in _fsname
128.Nm Mount_std
129was called with a zeroth argument of
130.Dq Li mount_std .
131.It vfsload(%s)
132.Nm Mount_std
133was unable to load a kernel module implementing the %s filesystem
134type.
135.It %s filesystem not available
136The specified filesystem type was not present in the kernel and no
137loadable module for it was found.
