65.Sh DESCRIPTION
66The
67.Fn vfs_getopt
68function sets
69.Fa buf
70to point to the value of the named mount option, and sets
71.Fa len
72to the length of the value if it is not
73.Dv NULL .
74The
75.Fa buf
76argument
77will point to the actual value, and does not need to be freed or released
78(and probably should not be modified).
79.Pp
80The
81.Fn vfs_getopts
82function
83returns the value of the specified option if it is a string (i.e.,
84.Dv NUL
85terminated).
86.Pp
87The
88.Fn vfs_flagopt
89function determines if an option exists.
90If the option does exist, and
91.Fa flags
92is not
93.Dv NULL ,
94.Fa flag
95is added to those already set in
96.Fa flags .
97If the option does not exist, and
98.Fa flags
99is not
100.Dv NULL ,
101.Fa flag
102is removed from those already set in
103.Fa flags .
104An example of typical usage is:
105.Bd -literal
106if (vfs_flagopt(mp->mnt_optnew, "wormlike", NULL, 0))
107	vfs_flagopt(mp->mnt_optnew, "appendok", &(mp->flags), F_APPENDOK);
108.Ed
109.Pp
110The
111.Fn vfs_scanopt
112function performs a
113.Xr vsscanf 3
114with the options value, using the given format,
115into the specified variable arguments.
116The value must be a string (i.e.,
117.Dv NUL
118terminated).
119.Pp
120The
121.Fn vfs_copyopt
122function creates a copy of the options value.
123The
124.Fa len
125argument must match the length of the options value exactly
126(i.e., a larger buffer will still cause
127.Fn vfs_copyout
128to fail with
129.Er EINVAL ) .
130.Pp
131The
132.Fn vfs_filteropt
133function ensures that no unknown options were specified.
134A option is valid if its name matches one of the names in the
135list of legal names.
136An option may be prefixed with 'no', and still be considered valid.
137.Sh RETURN VALUES
138The
139.Fn vfs_getopt
140function returns 0 if the option was found; otherwise,
141.Er ENOENT
142is returned.
143.Pp
144The
145.Fn vfs_getops
146function returns the specified option if it is found, and is
147.Dv NUL
148terminated.
149If the option was found, but is not
150.Dv NUL
151terminated,
152.Fa error
153is set to
154.Er EINVAL
155and
156.Dv NULL
157is returned.
158If the option was not found,
159.Fa error
160is set to 0, and
161.Dv NULL
162is returned.
163.Pp
164The
165.Fn vfs_flagopt
166function returns 1 if the option was found, and 0 if it was not.
167.Pp
168The
169.Fn vfs_scanopt
170function returns 0 if the option was not found, or was not
171.Dv NUL
172terminated; otherwise, the return value of
173.Xr vsscanf 3
174is returned.
175If
176.Xr vsscanf 3
177returns 0, it will be returned unchanged; therefore, a return value of 0 does
178not always mean the option does not exist, or is not a valid string.
179.Pp
180The
181.Fn vfs_copyopt
182function returns 0 if the copy was successful,
183.Er EINVAL
184if the option was found but the lengths did not match, and
185.Er ENOENT
186if the option was not found.
187.Pp
188The
189.Fn vfs_filteropt
190function returns 0 if all of the options are legal; otherwise,
191.Er EINVAL
192is returned.
