+.IR Note :
+glibc provides no wrapper for
+.BR listmount (),
+necessitating the use of
+.BR syscall (2).
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+To access the mounts in your namespace,
+you must have CAP_SYS_ADMIN in the user namespace.
+.P
+This function returns a list of mount IDs under the
+.BR req.mnt_id .
+This is meant to be used in conjuction with
+.BR statmount (2)
+in order to provide a way to iterate and discover mounted file systems.
+.SS The mnt_id_req structure
+.I req.size
+is used by the kernel to determine which struct
+.I mnt_id_req
+is being passed in,
+it should always be set to sizeof(struct mnt_id req).
+.P
+.I req.mnt_id
+is the parent mnt_id that we will list from,
+which can either be
+.B LSMT_ROOT
+which means the root mount of the current mount namespace,
+or a mount ID obtained from either
+.BR statx (2)
+using
+.B STATX_MNT_ID_UNIQUE
+or from
+.BR listmount (2) .
+.P
+.I req.param
+is used to tell the kernel what mount ID to start the list from.
+This is useful if multiple calls to
+.BR listmount (2)
+are required.
+This can be set to the last mount ID returned + 1 in order to
+resume from a previous spot in the list.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+On success, the number of entries filled into
+.I mnt_ids
+is returned, 0 if there are no more mounts left.
+On error, \-1 is returned, and
+.I errno
+is set to indicate the error.
+.SH ERRORS
+.TP
+.B EPERM
+Permission is denied for accessing this mount.
+.TP
+.B EFAULT
+.I req
+or
+.I mnt_ids
+points to a location outside the process's accessible
+address space.
+.TP
+.B EINVAL
+Invalid flag specified in
+.IR flags .
+.TP
+.B EINVAL
+.I req
+is of insufficient size to be utilized.
+.TP
+.B E2BIG
+.I req
+is too large,
+the limit is the architectures page size.
+.TP
+.B ENOENT
+The specified
+.I req.mnt_id
+doesn't exist.
+.TP
+.B ENOMEM
+Out of memory (i.e., kernel memory).
+.SH STANDARDS
+Linux.
