pseudofs — pseudo file system construction kit

       The pseudofs module and this manual page were written by Dag-Erling Smørgrav <des@FreeBSD.org>.

Debian                                           April 20, 2007                                      PSEUDOFS(9)

       The  pseudofs  module  offers an abstract API for pseudo-file systems such as procfs(5) and linprocfs(5).
       It takes care of all the hairy bits like interfacing with  the  VFS  system,  enforcing  access  control,
       keeping track of file numbers, and cloning files and directories that are process-specific.  The consumer
       module,  i.e.,  the  module  that  implements  the actual guts of the file system, needs only provide the
       directory structure (represented by a  collection  of  structures  declared  and  initialized  by  macros
       provided  by  pseudofs)  and callbacks that report file attributes or write the actual file contents into
       sbufs.

       The pseudofs module appeared in FreeBSD 5.0.
