fsconfig

Partial in Antinomie 0.7.0 · Syscall list

long fsconfig(int fs_fd, unsigned int cmd, const char *key, const void *value, int aux);
Number (x86-64) 431
ABI common
Kernel entry point sys_fsconfig

This is the raw kernel prototype from the pinned Linux 6.12.94 schema, not the libc wrapper.

Sets parameters or runs commands on a filesystem context made by fsopen or fspick.

Name Type Meaning
fs_fd (arg0) int File descriptor of a filesystem context.
cmd (arg1) unsigned int Command or operation selector.
key (arg2) const char * Key, either a numeric key or a pointer to a key description.
value (arg3) const void * Value to set or compare.
aux (arg4) int Auxiliary value.

On success: 0.

In an Antinomie trace the Return column and the ret filter field show the raw kernel return value. On failure that is the negative errno, for example -2 for ENOENT, not the -1 plus errno that the libc wrapper gives. syscall.errno holds the positive errno and syscall.success is false.

Raw return Name Meaning
-22 EINVAL An argument is invalid.
-1 EPERM The operation is not permitted for this process.

fsconfig(2) on man7.org

Coverage mark: Partial. Known commands decode their key and value. An unknown command records an fsconfig.unknown_selector “no decoder” gap.

Every call is recorded as an Entry record (the six argument words and the pointees copied at entry) and an Exit record (the return value and the pointees copied at exit).

Argument When How Recorded field key Condition
fs_fd (arg0) Entry raw scalar word args.0, args.fs_fd
cmd (arg1) Entry raw scalar word args.1, args.cmd
key (arg2) Entry the pointer itself, as a raw word args.2, args.raw[2]
↳ pointee Entry NUL-terminated string, up to 256 bytes arg2.key the command sets a parameter (flag, string, binary, path, fd)
value (arg3) Entry the pointer itself, as a raw word args.3, args.raw[3]
↳ pointee Entry a string (up to 256 bytes, or 4,096 for paths) or, for FSCONFIG_SET_BINARY, aux (arg4) bytes up to 1 MiB arg3.value the command takes a value
aux (arg4) Entry raw scalar word args.4, args.aux
  • Result: ret, syscall.errno, syscall.success, syscall.duration_ns.
  • Argument words: args.fs_fd (arg0), args.cmd (arg1), args.key (arg2), args.value (arg3), args.aux (arg4); args.0 to args.5 by position.

See Syscall Trace filter for the full syntax.

  • An unknown command records fsconfig.unknown_selector with the “no decoder” status.
  • See the coverage mark above for the code paths that record a gap.
