.SH NAME
fsconfig \- Filesystem parameterisation
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
.B #include <sys/types.h>
.br
.B #include <sys/mount.h>
.br
.B #include <unistd.h>
.br
.B #include <sys/mount.h>

.br
.BI " const void __user *" value ", int " aux ");"
.br

.fi
.PP
.IR Note :
There is no glibc wrapper for this system call.
.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
.BR fsconfig ()
is used to supply parameters to and issue commands against a filesystem
configuration context as set up by
.BR fsopen (2)
or
.BR fspick (2).
The context is supplied attached to the file descriptor specified by
.I fd
argument.
.PP
The
.I cmd
argument indicates the command to be issued, where some of the commands simply
supply parameters to the context. The meaning of
.IR key ", " value " and " aux
are command-dependent; unless required for the command, these should be set to
NULL or 0.
.PP
The available commands are:
.TP
.B FSCONFIG_SET_FLAG
Set the parameter named by
.IR key
to true. This may incur error
.B EINVAL
if the parameter requires an argument.
.TP
.B FSCONFIG_SET_STRING
Set the parameter named by
.I key
to a string. This may incur error
.B EINVAL
if the parser doesn't want a parameter here, wants a non-string or the string
cannot be interpreted appropriately.
.I value
points to a NUL-terminated string.
.TP
.B FSCONFIG_SET_BINARY
Set the parameter named by
.I key
to be a binary blob argument. This may cause
.B EINVAL
to be returned if the filesystem parser isn't expecting a binary blob and it
can't be converted to something usable.
.I value
points to the data and
.I aux
indicates the size of the data.
.TP
.B FSCONFIG_SET_PATH
Set the parameter named by
.I key
to the object at the provided path.
.I value
should point to a NULL-terminated pathname string and aux may indicate
.B AT_FDCWD
or a file descriptor indicating a directory from which to begin a relative
pathwalk. This may return any errors incurred by the pathwalk and may return
.B EINVAL
if the parameter isn't expecting a path.
.IP
Note that FSCONFIG_SET_STRING can be used instead, implying AT_FDCWD.
.TP
.B FSCONFIG_SET_PATH_EMPTY
As FSCONFIG_SET_PATH, but with
.B AT_EMPTY_PATH
applied to the pathwalk.
.TP
.B FSCONFIG_SET_FD
Set the parameter named by
.I key
to the file descriptor specified by
.IR aux .
This will incur
.B EINVAL
if the parameter doesn't expect a file descriptor or
.B EBADF
if the file descriptor is invalid.
.IP
Note that FSCONFIG_SET_STRING can be used instead with the file descriptor
passed as a decimal string.
.TP
.B FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE
This command causes the filesystem to take the parameters set in the context
and to try to create filesystem representation in the kernel. If it can share
an existing one, it may do that instead if the filesystem type and parameters
permit that. This is intended for use with
.BR fsopen (2).
.TP
.B FSCONFIG_CMD_RECONFIGURE
This command causes the filesystem to apply the parameters set in the context
to an already existing filesystem representation in memory and to alter it.
This is intended for use with
.BR fspick (2),
but may also by used against the context created by
.BR fsopen()
after
.BR fsmount (2)
has been called on it.

.SH RETURN VALUE
On success, the function returns 0. On error, \-1 is returned, and
.I errno
is set appropriately.
.SH ERRORS
The error values given below result from filesystem type independent
errors.
Each filesystem type may have its own special errors and its
own special behavior.
See the Linux kernel source code for details.
.TP
.B EACCES
A component of a path was not searchable.
(See also
.BR path_resolution (7).)
.TP
.B EACCES
Mounting a read-only filesystem was attempted without specifying the
.RB ' ro '
parameter.
.TP
.B EACCES
A specified block device is located on a filesystem mounted with the
.B MS_NODEV
option.
.\" mtk: Probably: write permission is required for MS_BIND, with
.\" the error EPERM if not present; CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE is required.
.TP
.B EBADF
The file descriptor given by
.I fd
or possibly by
.I aux
(depending on the command) is invalid.
.TP
.B EBUSY
The context attached to
.I fd
is in the wrong state for the given command.
.TP
.B EBUSY
The filesystem representation cannot be reconfigured read-only because it still
holds files open for writing.
.TP
.B EFAULT
One of the pointer arguments points outside the user address space.
.TP
.B EINVAL
.I fd
does not refer to a filesystem configuration context.
.TP
.B EINVAL
One of the source parameters referred to an invalid superblock.
.TP
.B ELOOP
Too many links encountered during pathname resolution.
.TP
.B ENAMETOOLONG
A path name was longer than
.BR MAXPATHLEN .
.TP
.B ENOENT
A pathname was empty or had a nonexistent component.
.TP
.B ENOMEM
The kernel could not allocate sufficient memory to complete the call.
.TP
.B ENOTBLK
Once of the parameters does not refer to a block device (and a device was
required).
.TP
.B ENOTDIR
.IR pathname ,
or a prefix of
.IR source ,
is not a directory.
.TP
.B EOPNOTSUPP
The command given by
.I cmd
was not valid.
.TP
.B ENXIO
The major number of a block device parameter is out of range.
.TP
.B EPERM
The caller does not have the required privileges.
.SH CONFORMING TO
These functions are Linux-specific and should not be used in programs intended
to be portable.
.SH VERSIONS
.BR fsconfig ()
was added to Linux in kernel 5.1.
.SH NOTES
Glibc does not (yet) provide a wrapper for the
.BR fspick ()
system call; call it using
.BR syscall (2).
