48 | .Sh DESCRIPTION | |
49 | The | |
50 | .Fn getvfsbyname | |
51 | function provides access to information about a | |
52 | filesystem module that is configured in the kernel. | |
53 | If successful, | |
54 | the requested filesystem | |
55 | .Fa vfsconf | |
56 | is returned in the location pointed to by | |
57 | .Fa vfc . | |
58 | The fields in a | |
59 | .Dq Li struct vfsconf | |
60 | are defined as follows: | |
61 | .Pp | |
62 | .Bl -tag -compact -width vfc_refcount | |
63 | .It vfc_name | |
64 | the name of the filesystem | |
65 | .It vfc_typenum | |
66 | the filesystem type number assigned by the kernel | |
67 | .It vfc_refcount | |
68 | the number of active mount points using the filesystem | |
69 | .El | |
70 | .Sh RETURN VALUES | |
71 | .Rv -std getvfsbyname | |
72 | .Sh ERRORS | |
73 | The following errors may be reported: | |
