nfs_do_submount(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

✨ NAME ✨

nfs_do_submount β€” sets up the mountpoint when you're crossing a filesystem boundary πŸ¦‹

Like, this is the little function whose whole job is: bestie, you just walked out of one filesystem and into another, lemme get you a mountpoint for that. Iconic behavior honestly.


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int nfs_do_submount (struct fs_context *fc );

πŸ’… ARGUMENTS πŸ’…

  • fc β€” a pointer to struct nfs_fs_context. Yep, that's the whole vibe. It's the context struct for the filesystem, it gets passed in, that's it, no cap.

πŸŽ€ SEE ALSO πŸŽ€

  • Kernel file ./fs/nfs/namespace.c β€” go read it, iykyk πŸ‘‘

Heads up bestie: the signature literally says struct fs_context *fc while the argument description says struct nfs_fs_context β€” I'm just reporting what the page says, don't come for me 😭 that's exactly the original wording fr fr.

Okay so that's literally the whole page and it took like two seconds because this manpage is short and sweet, main character energy of a tiny page tbh πŸ’– This was nfs_do_submount(9) from the Kernel API Manual, straight out of ./fs/nfs, dated October 2026 β€” periodt, go mount something 🌈✨🫢
