RUMP_TMPFS(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 					     RUMP_TMPFS(8)

NAME

     rump_tmpfs -- mount a tmpfs fictional fs with a userspace server

SYNOPSIS

     file-system PUFFS
     pseudo-device putter

     rump_tmpfs [options] tmpfs mountpoint

DESCRIPTION

     NOTE! This manual page describes features specific to the rump(3) file server.  Please see mount_tmpfs(8) for a full description of the
     available command line options.

     The rump_tmpfs utility can be used to mount tmpfs file systems.  It uses rump(3) and p2k(3) to facilitate running the file system as a server
     in userspace.  As opposed to mount_tmpfs(8), rump_tmpfs does not use file system code within the kernel and therefore does not require kernel
     support except puffs(4).  Apart from a minor speed penalty there is no downside with respect to in-kernel code.

     To use rump_tmpfs via mount(8), the flags -o rump and -t tmpfs should be given.  Similarly, rump_tmpfs is used instead of mount_tmpfs(8) if
     ``rump'' is added to the options field of fstab(5).

     p2k(3), puffs(3), rump(3), mount_tmpfs(8)

HISTORY

     The rump_tmpfs utility first appeared in NetBSD 5.0.

RUMP_NFS(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 					       RUMP_NFS(8)

NAME

     rump_nfs -- mount a nfs share with a userspace server

SYNOPSIS

     file-system PUFFS
     pseudo-device putter

     rump_nfs [options] share mountpoint

DESCRIPTION

     NOTE! This manual page describes features specific to the rump(3) file server.  Please see mount_nfs(8) for a full description of the avail-
     able command line options.

     The rump_nfs utility can be used to mount nfs file systems.  It uses rump(3) and p2k(3) to facilitate running the file system as a server in
     userspace.  As opposed to mount_nfs(8), rump_nfs does not use file system code within the kernel and therefore does not require kernel sup-
     port except puffs(4).  Apart from a minor speed penalty there is no downside with respect to in-kernel code.

     Even though the rump_nfs file system client runs within a virtual rump kernel in userspace, it uses host network services (by means of ``rump
     sockin'').  This means that regardless of whether using rump_nfs or mount_nfs(8), the same network configurations will be used.  Currently,
     ``sockin'' supports IPv4.

     To use rump_nfs via mount(8), the flags -o rump and -t nfs should be given.  Similarly, rump_nfs is used instead of mount_nfs(8) if ``rump''
     is added to the options field of fstab(5).
