cdfs advanced mount options
When you add or modify a CDFS filesystem you can set advanced options
for this filesystem type.
The advanced options are divided into two groups, Extension and Supplemental.
The significance of the division will become apparent below when
descibing the different ways to apply the options.
The Filesystem Manager supports the following options:
Extension Related Options
Extensions to ISO-9660/High Sierra-
Enable/Disable the processing of all extensions to the ISO-9660/High-Sierra
specification (SUSP and non-SUSP alike).
By default cdfs mount enables the processing of all extensions
to the ISO-9660/High-Sierra specification.
NOTE:
After CDFS mounts an ISO-9660 CD-ROM or a CD-ROM image, only one of the
extensions (i.e. either RRIP, Joliet, or Pure ISO-9660) will be Active.
How an extension becomes the Active Extension is determined by:
-
the set of extensions enabled for processing at mount time (i.e.
set consisting of RRIP, Joliet, and Pure ISO-9660 (set by
disabling the processing of all extensions to ISO-9660)).
-
the set of extensions that exist on the CD-ROM media.
-
applying a set of rules as described in
mount_cdfs(1M)
to the set of enabled and existing extensions.
System Use Sharing Protocol-
Enable/disable the processing of all System Use Sharing Protocol
(SUSP) compliant extensions to the
ISO-9660/High-Sierra specification.
The SUSP defines a mechanism for which the System Use Area
(SUA) of a Directory Record (DREC) may be shared by multiple independent
organizations, such as the Rock Ridge Interchange Protocol (RRIP).
DRECs are elements of a CD-ROM Directory Hierarchy which is managed by
a Volume Descriptor (either the Primary Volume Descriptor (PVD) or
a Supplementary Volume Descriptor (SVD) if any exist).
By default cdfs mount enables the processing of SUSP.
NOTE:
The CDFS filesystem implementation only supports SUSP and compliant
SUSP extensions (i.e. RRIP) on DREC SUAs that are managed by the (PVD)
It does not support SUSP on DREC SUAs that is managed by any SVD such
as a SVD that is supporting Joliet extensions for example.
Rock Ridge Interchange Protocol-
Enable/disable the processing of all Rock Ridge Interchange
Protocol (RRIP) extensions to the
ISO-9660/High-Sierra specification.
The RRIP is a SUSP-compliant set of
extensions that provide POSIX file semantics.
By default, cdfs mount enables the processing of RRIP.
Joliet-
Enable/Disable the processing of the Joliet extensions to the
ISO-9660/High-Sierra specification.
Joliet utilizes the Supplementary Volume Descriptor (SVD) feature of
the ISO-9660/High-Sierra specification to manage a Directory
Hierarchy and by doing so eliminates several ISO-9660/High-Sierra
restrictions such as File/Directory Identifiers lengths,
character sets (Identifiers are recored within the Unicode
(i.e. ISO10646) character set), and Directory Hierarch depth.
By default, cdfs mount enables the processing of Joliet.
Supplemental Related Options
Filename Conversion-
There are three possible options for altering the diplay of filenames
recorded on a ISO-9660 CD-ROM media or image:
-
Do not alter the filename.
This option is mutually exclusive with the next two options.
-
Display filenames in lowercase and suppresses any trailing period
(.) characters.
-
Suppress the display of version numbers and separators (;).
The default is to do options 2 & 3.
If filenames have been recorded as POSIX filenames (i.e.
the RRIP extension) and RRIP is the Active Extension, option 2 and
3 have no effect.
If filenames have been recorded as Joliet filenames and Joliet is the
Active Extension, option 2 has no effect.
Grant Directory Search Permission to use who has-
Determines the search permissions for a directory (as
recorded on the CD-ROM or defined by the Default File
Permissions option): execute permissions only, or read
and execute.
Default File Permissions-
Sets the permissions for files recorded without permissions (as defined
in an extended attribute record, or XAR, the optional data structure
used within an ISO9660 format CD-ROM for recording file attributes).
Specify the mode in octal.
See
chmod(1)
The default permissions are set to 0444.
Default Directory Permissions-
Sets the permissions for directories recorded without permissions.
Specify the mode in octal.
See
chmod(1)
The default permissions are set to 0555.
Default User (Name or ID)-
Defines the default user for files and directories that are recorded
without ownership.
If you set this option, you must use a valid user name or
a valid user ID between 0 and 60002.
If you do not set this option, the files are recorded
with the user ID of the mount point for the filesystem.
Default Group (Name or ID)-
Defines the default group for files and directories
recorded without this information.
If you set this option, you must use a valid group name or
a valid group ID between 0 and 60002.
If you do not set this option, the files are recorded
with the group ID of the mount point for the filesystem.
User ID Mapping-
Maps the user ID recorded on the CD-ROM to a user ID on the system.
If you set this option, you must use a valid user name or
a valid user ID between 0 and 60002.
Group ID Mapping-
Maps the group ID recorded on the CD-ROM to a
group ID on the system.
If you set this option, you must use a valid group name or
a valid group ID between 0 and 60002.
Device ID Mapping-
Maps the device number recorded on the CD-ROM to a device number on the system.
If you specify this option, the device pathname must be a full pathname
from the root of the CD-ROM.
The major device number on the system must be a valid device number in the
range of 0 to 8191.
The minor device number on the system must be a valid device number in
the range of 0 to 262143.
NOTE:
The Filesystem Manager only supports device ID mapping options
for Rockridge filesystems.
