Subject: [PATCH V3 13/21] famfs_fuse: Famfs mount opt: -o shadow=<shadowpath>
Date: Wed, 7 Jan 2026 09:33:22 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260107153332.64727-14-john@groves.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260107153332.64727-1-john@groves.net>
The shadow path is a (usually in tmpfs) file system area used by the
famfs user space to communicate with the famfs fuse server. There is a
minor dilemma that the user space tools must be able to resolve from a
mount point path to a shadow path. Passing in the 'shadow=<path>'
argument at mount time causes the shadow path to be exposed via
/proc/mounts, Solving this dilemma. The shadow path is not otherwise
used in the kernel.
