NAME
namespace – name space description file
DESCRIPTION
Namespace files describe how to construct a name space from scratch,
an operation normally performed by the
newns
or
addns
subroutines
(see
auth(2))
which is typically called by
init(8).
Each line specifies one name space operation.
Spaces and tabs separate arguments to operations.
Blank lines and lines with
#
as the first non-space character are ignored.
Environment variables of the form
$name
are expanded within arguments,
where
name
is a
UTF
string terminated by white space, a
/,
or a
$.
The known operations and their arguments are:
mount [-abcC] servename old [spec]
Mount
servename
on
old.
bind [-abcC] new old
Bind
new
on
old.
cd dir
Change the working directory to
dir.
unmount [new] old
Unmount
new
from
old,
or everything mounted on
old
if
new
is missing.
clear
Clear the name space with
rfork(RFCNAMEG).
. path
Execute the namespace file
path.
Note that
path
must be present in the name space being built.
The options for
bind
and
mount
are interpreted as in
bind(1).
