80.Sh DESCRIPTION
81The
82.Fn vfs_getopt
83function sets
84.Fa buf
85to point to the value of the named mount option, and sets
86.Fa len
87to the length of the value if it is not
88.Dv NULL .
89The
90.Fa buf
91argument
92will point to the actual value, and does not need to be freed or released
93(and probably should not be modified).
94.Pp
95The
96.Fn vfs_getopts
97function
98returns the value of the specified option if it is a string (i.e.,
99.Dv NUL
100terminated).
101.Pp
102The
103.Fn vfs_flagopt
104function determines if an option exists.
105If the option does exist, and
106.Fa flags
107is not
108.Dv NULL ,
109.Fa flag
110is added to those already set in
111.Fa flags .
112If the option does not exist, and
113.Fa flags
114is not
115.Dv NULL ,
116.Fa flag
117is removed from those already set in
118.Fa flags .
119An example of typical usage is:
120.Bd -literal
121if (vfs_flagopt(mp->mnt_optnew, "wormlike", NULL, 0))
122	vfs_flagopt(mp->mnt_optnew, "appendok", &(mp->flags), F_APPENDOK);
123.Ed
124.Pp
125The
126.Fn vfs_scanopt
127function performs a
128.Xr vsscanf 3
129with the option's value, using the given format,
130into the specified variable arguments.
131The value must be a string (i.e.,
132.Dv NUL
133terminated).
134.Pp
135The
136.Fn vfs_copyopt
137function creates a copy of the option's value.
138The
139.Fa len
140argument must match the length of the option's value exactly
141(i.e., a larger buffer will still cause
142.Fn vfs_copyout
143to fail with
144.Er EINVAL ) .
145.Pp
146The
147.Fn vfs_filteropt
148function ensures that no unknown options were specified.
149A option is valid if its name matches one of the names in the
150list of legal names.
151An option may be prefixed with 'no', and still be considered valid.
152.Pp
153The
154.Fn vfs_setopt
155and
156.Fn vfs_setopt_part
157functions copy new data into the option's value.
158In
159.Fn vfs_setopt ,
160the
161.Fa len
162argument must match the length of the option's value exactly
163(i.e., a larger buffer will still cause
164.Fn vfs_copyout
165to fail with
166.Er EINVAL ) .
167.Pp
168The
169.Fn vfs_setopts
170function copies a new string into the option's value.
171The string, including
172.Dv NUL
173byte, must be no longer than the option's length.
174.Sh RETURN VALUES
175The
176.Fn vfs_getopt
177function returns 0 if the option was found; otherwise,
178.Er ENOENT
179is returned.
180.Pp
181The
182.Fn vfs_getops
183function returns the specified option if it is found, and is
184.Dv NUL
185terminated.
186If the option was found, but is not
187.Dv NUL
188terminated,
189.Fa error
190is set to
191.Er EINVAL
192and
193.Dv NULL
194is returned.
195If the option was not found,
196.Fa error
197is set to 0, and
198.Dv NULL
199is returned.
200.Pp
201The
202.Fn vfs_flagopt
203function returns 1 if the option was found, and 0 if it was not.
204.Pp
205The
206.Fn vfs_scanopt
207function returns 0 if the option was not found, or was not
208.Dv NUL
209terminated; otherwise, the return value of
210.Xr vsscanf 3
211is returned.
212If
213.Xr vsscanf 3
214returns 0, it will be returned unchanged; therefore, a return value of 0 does
215not always mean the option does not exist, or is not a valid string.
216.Pp
217The
218.Fn vfs_copyopt
219and
220.Fn vfs_setopt
221functions return 0 if the copy was successful,
222.Er EINVAL
223if the option was found but the lengths did not match, and
224.Er ENOENT
225if the option was not found.
226.Pp
227The
228.Fn vfs_filteropt
229function returns 0 if all of the options are legal; otherwise,
230.Er EINVAL
231is returned.
232.Pp
233The
234.Fn vfs_setopts
235function returns 0 if the copy was successful,
236.Er EINVAL
237if the option was found but the string was too long, and
238.Er ENOENT
239if the option was not found.
