27.Dt RUMP_SERVER 1
28.Os
29.Sh NAME
30.Nm rump_server ,
31.Nm rump_allserver
32.Nd rump kernel server
33.Sh SYNOPSIS
34.Nm
35.Op Fl s
36.Op Fl c Ar ncpu
37.Op Fl d Ar drivespec
38.Op Fl l Ar library
39.Op Fl m Ar module
40.Ar url
41.Sh DESCRIPTION
42The
43.Nm
44utility is used to provide a rump kernel service.
45Clients can use the system calls provided by
46.Nm
47via
48.Ar url .
49.Pp
50The difference between
51.Nm
52and
53.Nm rump_allserver
54is that
55.Nm
56offers only a minimalistic set of features,
57while
58.Nm rump_allserver
59provides all rump kernel components which were available when the
60system was built.
61At execution time it is possible to load components from the command
62line as described in the options section.
63.Bl -tag -width indent
64.It Fl c Ar ncpu
65Configure
66.Ar ncpu
67virtual CPUs on SMP-capable archs.
68By default, the number of CPUs equals the number of CPUs on the
69host.
70.It Fl d Ar drivespec
71The argument
72.Ar drivespec
73maps a host file a block device in the rump fs namespace.
74The string
75.Ar drivespec
76must be of comma-separated
77.Dq name=value
78format and must contain the following tokens:
79.Bl -tag -width hostpath1234
80.It Ar key
81Block device path in rump namespace.
82This must be specified according to the rules for a key in
83.Xr rump_etfs 3 .
84.It Ar hostpath
85Host file used for storage.
86If the file does not exist, it will be created.
87.It Ar size
88Size of the mapping.
89The host file will be truncated to the size indicated.
90Similar to
91.Xr dd 1 ,
92this argument accepts a suffix as the multiplier for the number.
93.El
94.It Fl l Ar library
95Call
96.Fn dlopen
97on library before initializing the rump kernel.
98In case
99.Ar library
100provides a kernel module, it will appear as a builtin module in the
101rump kernel.
102Any rump component present in
103.Ar library
104will also be initialized.
105.Pp
106The argument
107.Ar library
108can contain a full path or a filename, in which case the standard
109dynamic library search path will be used.
110Libraries are loaded in the order they are given.
111Dependencies are not autoloaded, and the order must be specified
112correctly.
113.It Fl m Ar module
114Load and link a kernel module after the rump kernel is initialized.
115For this to work, the rump kernel must include the vfs faction,
116since the module is loaded using kernel vfs code (see
117.Sx EXAMPLES ) .
118.It Fl s
119Do not detach from the terminal.
120By default,
121.Nm
122detaches from the terminal once the service is running on
123.Ar url .
124.El
125.Pp
126After use,
127.Nm
128can be made to exit using
129.Xr rump.halt 1 .
130.Sh EXAMPLES
131Start a server and load the tmpfs file system module, and halt the
132server immediately afterwards:
133.Bd -literal -offset indent
134$ rump_server -lrumpvfs -m /modules/tmpfs.kmod unix://sock
135$ env RUMP_SERVER=unix://sock rump.halt
136.Ed
137.Pp
138Start a server with the one gigabyte host file
139.Pa dk.img
140mapped as the block device
141.Pa /dev/dk
142in the rump kernel.
143.Bd -literal -offset indent
144$ rump_allserver -d key=/dev/dk,hostpath=dk.img,size=1g unix://sock
145.Ed
146.Pp
147Start a server which listens on INADDR_ANY port 3755
148.Bd -literal -offset indent
149$ rump_server tcp://0:3755/
