+.TH MOVE_MOUNT 2 2018-06-08 "Linux" "Linux Programmer's Manual"
+.SH NAME
+move_mount \- Move mount objects around the filesystem topology
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+.B #include <sys/types.h>
+.br
+.B #include <sys/mount.h>
+.br
+.B #include <unistd.h>
+.br
+.BR "#include <fcntl.h> " "/* Definition of AT_* constants */"
+.PP
+.BI "int move_mount(int " from_dirfd ", const char *" from_pathname ","
+.BI " int " to_dirfd ", const char *" to_pathname ","
+.BI " unsigned int " flags );
+.fi
+.PP
+.IR Note :
+There are no glibc wrappers for these system calls.
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.BR move_mount ()
+call moves a mount from one place to another; it can also be used to attach an
+unattached mount created by
+.BR fsmount "() or " open_tree "() with " OPEN_TREE_CLONE .
+.PP
+If
+.BR move_mount ()
+is called repeatedly with a file descriptor that refers to a mount object,
+then the object will be attached/moved the first time and then moved again and
+again and again, detaching it from the previous mountpoint each time.
+.PP
+To access the source mount object or the destination mountpoint, no
+permissions are required on the object itself, but if either pathname is
+supplied, execute (search) permission is required on all of the directories
+specified in
+.IR from_pathname " or " to_pathname .
+.PP
+The caller does, however, require the appropriate capabilities or permission
+to effect a mount.
+.PP
+.BR move_mount ()
+uses
+.IR from_pathname ", " from_dirfd " and some " flags
+to locate the mount object to be moved and
+.IR to_pathname ", " to_dirfd " and some other " flags
+to locate the destination mountpoint. Each lookup can be done in one of a
+variety of ways:
+.TP
+[*] By absolute path.
+The pathname points to an absolute path and the dirfd is ignored. The file is
+looked up by name, starting from the root of the filesystem as seen by the
+calling process.
+.TP
+[*] By cwd-relative path.
+The pathname points to a relative path and the dirfd is
+.IR AT_FDCWD .
+The file is looked up by name, starting from the current working directory.
+.TP
+[*] By dir-relative path.
+The pathname points to relative path and the dirfd indicates a file descriptor
+pointing to a directory. The file is looked up by name, starting from the
+directory specified by
+.IR dirfd .
+.TP
+[*] By file descriptor.
+The pathname points to "", the dirfd points directly to the mount object to
+move or the destination mount point and the appropriate
+.B *_EMPTY_PATH
+flag is set.
+.PP
+.I flags
+can be used to influence a path-based lookup. A value for
+.I flags
+is constructed by OR'ing together zero or more of the following constants:
+.TP
+.BR MOVE_MOUNT_F_EMPTY_PATH
+.\" commit 65cfc6722361570bfe255698d9cd4dccaf47570d
+If
+.I from_pathname
+is an empty string, operate on the file referred to by
+.IR from_dirfd
+(which may have been obtained using the
+.BR open (2)
+.B O_PATH
+flag or
+.BR open_tree ())
+If
+.I from_dirfd
+is
+.BR AT_FDCWD ,
+the call operates on the current working directory.
+In this case,
+.I from_dirfd
+can refer to any type of file, not just a directory.
+This flag is Linux-specific; define
+.B _GNU_SOURCE
+.\" Before glibc 2.16, defining _ATFILE_SOURCE sufficed
+to obtain its definition.
+.TP
+.B MOVE_MOUNT_T_EMPTY_PATH
+As above, but operating on
+.IR to_pathname " and " to_dirfd .
+.TP
+.B MOVE_MOUNT_F_NO_AUTOMOUNT
+Don't automount the terminal ("basename") component of
+.I from_pathname
+if it is a directory that is an automount point. This allows a mount object
+that has an automount point at its root to be moved and prevents unintended
+triggering of an automount point.
+The
+.B MOVE_MOUNT_F_NO_AUTOMOUNT
+flag has no effect if the automount point has already been mounted over. This
+flag is Linux-specific; define
+.B _GNU_SOURCE
+.\" Before glibc 2.16, defining _ATFILE_SOURCE sufficed
+to obtain its definition.
+.TP
+.B MOVE_MOUNT_T_NO_AUTOMOUNT
+As above, but operating on
+.IR to_pathname " and " to_dirfd .
+This allows an automount point to be manually mounted over.
+.TP
+.B MOVE_MOUNT_F_SYMLINKS
+If
+.I from_pathname
+is a symbolic link, then dereference it. The default for
+.BR move_mount ()
+is to not follow symlinks.
+.TP
+.B MOVE_MOUNT_T_SYMLINKS
+As above, but operating on
+.IR to_pathname " and " to_dirfd .
+
+.SH EXAMPLES
+The
+.BR move_mount ()
+function can be used like the following:
+.PP
+.RS
+.nf
+move_mount(AT_FDCWD, "/a", AT_FDCWD, "/b", 0);
+.fi
+.RE
+.PP
+This would move the object mounted on "/a" to "/b". It can also be used in
+conjunction with
+.BR open_tree "(2) or " open "(2) with " O_PATH :
+.PP
+.RS
+.nf
+fd = open_tree(AT_FDCWD, "/mnt", 0);
+move_mount(fd, "", AT_FDCWD, "/mnt2", MOVE_MOUNT_F_EMPTY_PATH);
+move_mount(fd, "", AT_FDCWD, "/mnt3", MOVE_MOUNT_F_EMPTY_PATH);
+move_mount(fd, "", AT_FDCWD, "/mnt4", MOVE_MOUNT_F_EMPTY_PATH);
+.fi
+.RE
+.PP
+This would attach the path point for "/mnt" to fd, then it would move the
+mount to "/mnt2", then move it to "/mnt3" and finally to "/mnt4".
+.PP
+It can also be used to attach new mounts:
+.PP
+.RS
+.nf
+sfd = fsopen("ext4", FSOPEN_CLOEXEC);
+write(sfd, "s /dev/sda1");
+write(sfd, "o user_xattr");
+mfd = fsmount(sfd, FSMOUNT_CLOEXEC, MS_NODEV);
+move_mount(mfd, "", AT_FDCWD, "/home", MOVE_MOUNT_F_EMPTY_PATH);
+.fi
+.RE
+.PP
+Which would open the Ext4 filesystem mounted on "/dev/sda1", turn on user
+extended attribute support and create a mount object for it. Finally, the new
+mount object would be attached with
+.BR move_mount ()
+to "/home".

+There are no glibc wrappers for these system calls.
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.BR open_tree ()
+picks the mount object specified by the pathname and attaches it to a new file
+descriptor or clones it and attaches the clone to the file descriptor. The
+resultant file descriptor is indistinguishable from one produced by
+.BR open "(2) with " O_PATH .
+.PP
+In the case that the mount object is cloned, the clone will be "unmounted" and
+destroyed when the file descriptor is closed if it is not otherwise mounted
+somewhere by calling
+.BR move_mount (2).
+.PP
+To select a mount object, no permissions are required on the object referred
+to by the path, but execute (search) permission is required on all of the
+directories in
+.I pathname
+that lead to the object.
+.PP
+To clone an object, however, the caller must have mount capabilities and
+permissions.
+.PP
+.BR open_tree ()
+uses
+.IR pathname ", " dirfd " and " flags
+to locate the target object in one of a variety of ways:
+.TP
+[*] By absolute path.

+.I pathname
+points to relative path and

+indicates a file descriptor pointing to a directory. The object is looked up
+by name, starting from the directory specified by

+.I pathname
+is "",

+descriptor may point to any type of file, not just a directory.

+.B AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW
+If

+rooted on the link itself.
+.TP
+.B OPEN_TREE_CLOEXEC
+Set the close-on-exec flag for the new file descriptor. This will cause the
+file descriptor to be closed automatically when a process exec's.
+.TP
+.B OPEN_TREE_CLONE
+Rather than directly attaching the selected object to the file descriptor,
+clone the object, set the root of the new mount object to that point and
+attach the clone to the file descriptor.
+.TP
+.B AT_RECURSIVE
+This is only permitted in conjunction with OPEN_TREE_CLONE. It causes the
+entire mount subtree rooted at the selected spot to be cloned rather than just

+.RE
+.PP
+This would attach the path point for "/mnt" to fd1, then it would copy the
