squashfuse_ll(1)

πŸ’– squashfuse_ll β€” the low-level FUSE baddie πŸ’–

okay bestie, sit down, because this one's a General Commands Manual page (section 1, she's official ✨) and she's about to mount a SquashFS archive with low-level FUSE and look absolutely gorgeous doing it. no cap.


🌸 NAME 🌸

squashfuse_ll β€” mount a SquashFS archive with low-level FUSE. that's the whole vibe. πŸ’…


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

squashfuse_ll [-o options] archive mountpoint

like… three things. archive, mountpoint, and optionally some -o options if you're feeling extra. iconic.


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so here's the tea: squashfuse_ll mounts the SquashFS filesystem using FUSE, where archive is the archive and mountpoint is the directory it lands in. it's generally compatible with squashfuse(1), bestie β€” same energy β€” but this one uses the higher performance low-level FUSE interface and it supports multi-threading. she's fast and she knows it. πŸ‘‘

for the options, go read the squashfuse(1) man page, fr fr. one important note though: some of the fuse(8) library options are only supported on high-level FUSE, so they just… do not apply here. sorry not sorry πŸ™ˆ.

but!! these additional options are also supported β€” including some that are normally only supported in high-level FUSE (we love an overachiever πŸŽ€):

  • -o timeout=N β€” idle for N seconds and then automatic unmount. she leaves the party on her own terms. ⏳
  • -o uid=N β€” set the file owner to uid N. πŸ‘€
  • -o gid=N β€” set the file group to gid N. πŸ‘₯

lowkey mandatory: if you're reaching for this page, you already know squashfuse(1) is the main character and fuse(8) is the whole support system. go give them a read. 🫢

mwah πŸ’‹ this lil page comes to you from Debian and she was last touched on June 30, 2023. squashfuse_ll(1) forever bestie πŸ’–βœ¨πŸ¦‹
