40.Sh SYNOPSIS
41.In mntopts.h
42.Ft mntoptparse_t
43.Fn getmntopts "const char *options" "const struct mntopt *mopts" "int *flagp" "int *altflagp"

48.Ft void
49.Fn freemntopts "mntoptparse_t mp"
50.Sh DESCRIPTION
51The
52.Fn getmntopts
53function takes a comma separated option list and a list
afa5f1bd 54of valid option names, and computes the bitmasks
3f2457aa
A
55corresponding to the requested set of options.
56.Pp
57The string
58.Ar options
59is broken down into a sequence of comma separated tokens.
60Each token is looked up in the table described by
61.Ar mopts
62and the bits in
63the word referenced by either
64.Ar flagp
65or
66.Ar altflagp
67(depending on the
68.Dv m_altloc
69field of the option's table entry)
70are updated.
71The flag words are not initialized by
72.Fn getmntopts .
73The table,
74.Ar mopts ,
75has the following format:
76.Bd -literal
77struct mntopt {
78 const char *m_option; /* option name */
afa5f1bd 79 int m_inverse; /* negative option, e.g., "dev" */
3f2457aa 80 int m_flag; /* bit to set, e.g., MNT_RDONLY */
afa5f1bd 81 int m_altloc; /* use altflagp rather than flagp */
3f2457aa
A
82};
83.Ed
84.Pp
85The members of this structure are:
86.Bl -tag -width m_inverse
87.It Fa m_option
88the option name,
89for example
90.Dq suid .
91.It Fa m_inverse
92tells
93.Fn getmntopts
94that the name has the inverse meaning of the bit.
95For example,
96.Dq suid
97is the string, whereas the mount flag is
98.Dv MNT_NOSUID .
99In this case, the sense of the string and the flag
100are inverted, so the
101.Fa m_inverse
102flag should be set.
103.It Fa m_flag
104the value of the bit to be set or cleared in
105the flag word when the option is recognized.
106The bit is set when the option is discovered,
107but cleared if the option name was preceded
108by the letters
109.Dq no .
110The
111.Fa m_inverse
112flag causes these two operations to be reversed.
113.It Fa m_altloc
114the bit should be set or cleared in
115.Ar altflagp
116rather than
117.Ar flagp .
118.El
119.Pp
120Each of the user visible
121.Dv MNT_
122flags has a corresponding
123.Dv MOPT_
124macro which defines an appropriate
125.Li "struct mntopt"
126entry.
127To simplify the program interface and ensure consistency across all
128programs, a general purpose macro,
129.Dv MOPT_STDOPTS ,
afa5f1bd
A
130is defined which contains an entry for all the generic VFS options:
131.Bd -literal -offset indent
132MOPT_USERQUOTA,
133MOPT_GROUPQUOTA,
134MOPT_FSTAB_COMPAT,
135MOPT_NODEV,
136MOPT_NOEXEC,
137MOPT_NOSUID,
138MOPT_RDONLY,
139MOPT_UNION,
140MOPT_BROWSE,
141MOPT_AUTOMOUNTED,
142MOPT_DEFWRITE,
143MOPT_NOATIME,
144MOPT_PERMISSIONS,
145MOPT_IGNORE_OWNERSHIP,
146MOPT_QUARANTINE,
147MOPT_CPROTECT
148.Ed
149.Pp
3f2457aa
A
150In addition, the macros
151.Dv MOPT_FORCE
152and
153.Dv MOPT_UPDATE
154exist to enable the
155.Dv MNT_FORCE
156and
157.Dv MNT_UPDATE
158flags to be set.
159Finally, the table must be terminated by an entry with a
160.Dv NULL
161first element.
162.Pp
afa5f1bd
A
163.Fn getmntopts
164returns a
165.Li "mntoptparse_t"
166handle that can be used in subsequent
167.Fn getmntoptstr
168and
169.Fn getmntoptnum
170calls to fetch a value for an option and that must be freed with a call
171to
172.Fn freemntopts .
173If an error occurred, then if the external integer value
174.Va getmnt_silent
175is zero then
176.Fn getmntopts
177prints an error message and exits;
178if
179.Va getmnt_silent

181.Fn getmntopts
182returns
183.Dv NULL .

A
185The
186.Fn getmntoptstr
187function returns the string value of the named option, if such a value
afa5f1bd
A
188was set in the option string.
189If the value was not set, then if the external integer value
190.Va getmnt_silent
191is zero then
192.Fn getmntoptstr
193prints an error message and exits;
194if
195.Va getmnt_silent
196is non-zero then
197.Fn getmntoptstr

199.Dv NULL .
3f2457aa
A
200.Pp
201The
202.Fn getmntoptnum
afa5f1bd 203returns the long value of the named option, if such a value was set in the
3f2457aa 204option string.
afa5f1bd
A
205If the value was not set, or could not be converted from a string to a
206long, then if the external integer value
207.Va getmnt_silent
208is zero then
209.Fn getmntoptnum
210prints an error message and exits;
211if
212.Va getmnt_silent
213is non-zero then
214.Fn getmntoptnum
215returns \-1.
3f2457aa

217The

220.Fn getmntopts .

221.Sh RETURN VALUES
222.Fn getmntopts
223returns
224.Dv NULL
225if an error occurred.
226Note that some bits may already have been set in
227.Va flagp
228and
229.Va altflagp
230even if
231.Dv NULL
232is returned.
233.Fn getmntoptstr
234returns
235.Dv NULL
236if an error occurred.
237.Fn getmntoptnum
238returns \-1 if an error occurred.

239.Sh EXAMPLES
240Most commands will use the standard option set.
241Local filesystems which support the
242.Dv MNT_UPDATE
243flag, would also have an
244.Dv MOPT_UPDATE
245entry.
246This can be declared and used as follows:
afa5f1bd 247.Bd -literal -offset indent
3f2457aa

248#include \*[Lt]mntopts.h\*[Gt]
249
250static const struct mntopt mopts[] = {

274.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
275If the external integer variable
276.Va getmnt_silent
afa5f1bd
A
277is zero then the
278.Fn getmntopts ,
279.Fn getmntoptstr ,
280and
281.Fn getmntoptnum
282functions display an error message and exit if an error occurred.
3f2457aa

283By default
284.Va getmnt_silent

289.Sh HISTORY
290The
291.Fn getmntopts
292function appeared in
