Run the command:
man 8 mount

The "general" part of this advice is that: you're using the "mount"
command, so read the "mount" manual entry!
("mount" is an administrative command, so it is in section 8, not
section 1.)
I've never come to grips with multiple docs for man, depending on such
things as section numbers. And I see no difference in output between
"man 8 mount" or "man mount" Granted I haven't gone the whole way
through, but I've already gone deep into them, and not seen anything.
Well, "man 2 mount" details the OS system call, very different in usage from
the command line.
