Additional development by Greg Watson -<gwatson@lanl.gov> and most recently Eric Van Hensbergen -<ericvh@gmail.com> and Latchesar Ionkov <lucho@ionkov.net>. - -USAGE -===== - -For remote file server: - - mount -t 9P 10.10.1.2 /mnt/9 - -For Plan 9 From User Space applications (http://swtch.com/plan9) - - mount -t 9P `namespace`/acme /mnt/9 -o proto=unix,name=$USER - -OPTIONS -======= - - proto=name select an alternative transport. Valid options are - currently: - unix - specifying a named pipe mount point - tcp - specifying a normal TCP/IP connection - fd - used passed file descriptors for connection - (see rfdno and wfdno) - - name=name user name to attempt mount as on the remote server. The - server may override or ignore this value. Certain user - names may require authentication. - - aname=name aname specifies the file tree to access when the server is - offering several exported file systems. - - debug=n specifies debug level. The debug level is a bitmask. - 0x01 = display verbose error messages - 0x02 = developer debug (DEBUG_CURRENT) - 0x04 = display 9P trace - 0x08 = display VFS trace - 0x10 = display Marshalling debug - 0x20 = display RPC debug - 0x40 = display transport debug - 0x80 = display allocation debug - - rfdno=n the file descriptor for reading with proto=fd - - wfdno=n the file descriptor for writing with proto=fd - - maxdata=n the number of bytes to use for 9P packet payload (msize) - - port=n port to connect to on the remote server - - noextend force legacy mode (no 9P2000.u semantics) - - uid attempt to mount as a particular uid - - gid attempt to mount with a particular gid - - afid security channel - used by Plan 9 authentication protocols - - nodevmap do not map special files - represent them as normal files. - This can be used to share devices/named pipes/sockets between - hosts. This functionality will be expanded in later versions. - -RESOURCES -========= - -The Linux version of the 9P server is now maintained under the npfs project -on sourceforge (http://sourceforge.net/projects/npfs). - -There are user and developer mailing lists available through the v9fs project -on sourceforge (http://sourceforge.net/projects/v9fs). - -News and other information is maintained on SWiK (http://swik.net/v9fs). - -Bug reports may be issued through the kernel.org bugzilla -(http://bugzilla.kernel.org) - -For more information on the Plan 9 Operating System check out -http://plan9.bell-labs.com/plan9 - -For information on Plan 9 from User Space (Plan 9 applications and libraries -ported to Linux/BSD/OSX/etc) check out http://swtch.com/plan9 - - -STATUS -====== - -The 2.6 kernel support is working on PPC and x86. - -PLEASE USE THE SOURCEFORGE BUG-TRACKER TO REPORT PROBLEMS. - |
