29.Sh NAME
30.Nm p2k
31.Nd puffs to kernel vfs translation library
32.Sh LIBRARY
33p2k Library (libp2k, \-lp2k)
34.Sh SYNOPSIS
35.In rump/p2k.h
36.Ft int
37.Fo p2k_run_fs
38.Fa "const char *vfsname" "const char *devpath" "const char *mountpath"
39.Fa "int mntflags" "void *arg" "size_t alen" "uint32_t puffs_flags"
40.Fc
41.Sh DESCRIPTION
42The
43.Nm
44library translates the puffs protocol to the kernel vfs protocol and
45back again.
46It can therefore be used to mount and run kernel file system code as
47a userspace daemon.
48.Pp
49Calling the library interface function mounts the file system and,
50if succesful, starts handling requests.
51The parameters are handled by
52.Fn ukfs_mount
53(see
54.Xr ukfs 3 ) ,
55with the exception that
56.Fa mountpath
57and
58.Fa puffs_flags
59are handled by
60.Xr puffs 3 .
61.Pp
62The following environment variables affect the behaviour of puffs.
63They are useful mostly for debugging purposes.
64The flags are environment variables because typically the command line
65arguments to
66.Nm
67utilities are parsed using versions not aware of possible puffs flags:
68for example, the
69.Xr rump_cd9660 8
70arguments are really parsed by
71.Xr mount_cd9660 8 .
72.Bl -tag -width "XXXP2K_NODETACH"
73.It Dv P2K_DEBUG
74Do not detach from tty and print information about each puffs operation.
75.It Dv P2K_NODETACH
76Do not detach from tty.
