Query related to mount point identification.
Hi, I am currently working on parsing the packets for NFS protocol. I want to know, in case of a file operation, how can we identify the mount point where the file is mounted? E.g. scenario is- Client has mounted the node already. You apply the NFS parser and start reading/writing to the file. Here, parser did not know if the node is mounted or not (as we enabled the parser after mounting the node. And I want to identify that at the arrival of first packet). So is there any way to identify that based on the file name (or inode may be)? I am looking at the fstat() system call, but unable to find anything useful. Any pointers will be highly appreciated. -- Thanks, Nilesh -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with unsubscribe kernelnewbies to ecar...@nl.linux.org Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
