NAME

fuse-ufs — FUSE3 implementation of FreeBSD's UFSv2

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

fuse-ufs allows you to mount a FreeBSD UFSv2 filesystem.

The following options are available:

-o opt,[opt...]

Mount options, see below for details.

-o allow_other

Allow other users to access the mounted filesystem.

-o allow_root

Allow the root user to access the mounted filesystem.

-o default_permissions

Let the kernel check file permissions. This is already the default for this filesystem.

-o dev|nodev

Allow/prohibit using devices on the mounted filesystem.

-o exec|noexec

Allow/prohibit executing programs from the mounted filesystem.

-o suid|nosuid

Allow/prohibit honoring the setuid-bit when running programs from the mounted filesystem.

-o async|atime|dirsync|noatime|sync|ro

These options have no effect on the mounted filesystem, as there is no write support yet.

-o rw

As write support is not present, this option causes the program to crash.

-f

Wait for the filesystem to be unmounted before exiting.

-v

Increase the logging verbosity (this flag can be specified multiple times).

-q

Decrease the logging verbosity.

-h, --help

Print a help page and exit.

-V, --version

Print the version and exit.

EXIT STATUS

The fuse-ufs utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

EXAMPLES

The same, but allow other users to access the mounted filesystem:

CAVEATS

Only 64-bit Linux & FreeBSD systems have been tested to work. Support for other systems (like MacOS) will be on a best-effort basis for now.

Missing features:

• Write Support (TODO)
• Soft-Updates (TODO)
• Sun/Solaris UFS (TODO)
• Journaling
• Snapshots
• ACLs

BUGS

This software is not yet ready to be used in production, as it contains unfixed bugs that lead to crashes.
