.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||||
.B Mount()
|
||||
tells the system that the file system
|
||||
.I special
|
||||
is to be mounted on the file
|
||||
.IR name ,
|
||||
effectively overlaying
|
||||
.I name
|
||||
with the file tree on
|
||||
.IR special .
|
||||
.I Name
|
||||
may of any type, except that if the root of
|
||||
.I special
|
||||
is a directory, then
|
||||
.I name
|
||||
must also be a directory.
|
||||
.I Special
|
||||
must be a block special file, except for loopback mounts. For loopback
|
||||
mounts a normal file or directory is used for
|
||||
.IR special ,
|
||||
which must be seen as the root of a virtual device.
|
||||
.I Flag
|
||||
is 0 for a read-write mount, 1 for read-only.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
.B Umount()
|
||||
removes the connection between a device and a mount point,
|
||||
.I name
|
||||
may refer to either of them. If more than one device is mounted on the
|
||||
same mount point then unmounting at the mount point removes the last mounted
|
||||
device, unmounting a device removes precisely that device. The unmount will
|
||||
only succeed if none of the files on the device are in use.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
Both calls may only be executed by the super-user.
