mount_setattr
Implemented in Antinomie 0.7.0 · Syscall list
Synopsis
Section titled “Synopsis”long mount_setattr(int dfd, const char *path, unsigned int flags, struct mount_attr *uattr, size_t usize);| Number (x86-64) | 442 |
| ABI | common |
| Kernel entry point | sys_mount_setattr |
This is the raw kernel prototype from the pinned Linux 6.12.94 schema, not the libc wrapper.
Description
Section titled “Description”Changes the properties of a mount or a whole mount tree, such as read-only or id mapping.
Arguments
Section titled “Arguments”| Name | Type | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
dfd (arg0) |
int |
Directory file descriptor that a relative path is resolved against, or AT_FDCWD (-100) for the current directory. |
path (arg1) |
const char * |
Path, as a NUL-terminated string in user memory. |
flags (arg2) |
unsigned int |
Option flags that change the behavior of the call. |
uattr (arg3) |
struct mount_attr * |
Pointer to an attribute union. |
usize (arg4) |
size_t |
Size of the attribute structure. |
Return value
Section titled “Return 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.
Common errors
Section titled “Common errors”| Raw return | Name | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
-22 |
EINVAL |
An argument is invalid. |
-1 |
EPERM |
The operation is not permitted for this process. |
Man page
Section titled “Man page”Captured by Antinomie
Section titled “Captured by Antinomie”Coverage mark: Implemented. Every pointer argument has a capture rule in the pinned kernel patch and none of them records a “no decoder”, “address only” or “not observed” gap on any code path. Individual values can still be incomplete on a particular call; see the capture statuses.
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).
Arguments
Section titled “Arguments”| Argument | When | How | Recorded field key | Condition |
|---|---|---|---|---|
dfd (arg0) |
Entry | raw scalar word | args.0, args.dfd |
|
path (arg1) |
Entry | the pointer itself, as a raw word | args.1, args.raw[1] |
|
| ↳ pointee | Entry | NUL-terminated string, up to 4,096 bytes (PATH_MAX) | arg1.path |
always |
flags (arg2) |
Entry | raw scalar word; Syscall Trace also decodes it into flag names (mount_setattr group), listing unknown bits separately |
args.2, args.flags |
|
uattr (arg3) |
Entry | the pointer itself, as a raw word | args.3, args.raw[3] |
|
| ↳ pointee | Entry | structure mount_attr, size from usize (arg4), versioned |
arg3.mount_attr |
always |
usize (arg4) |
Entry | raw scalar word | args.4, args.usize |
Filter fields
Section titled “Filter fields”- Result:
ret,syscall.errno,syscall.success,syscall.duration_ns. - Argument words:
args.dfd(arg0),args.path(arg1),args.flags(arg2),args.uattr(arg3),args.usize(arg4);args.0toargs.5by position. - Captured strings: the
args.<name>field of a path argument, andargs.path, give the captured text instead of the pointer. - Structure
