NAME
mount_sysctlfs —
mount sysctl namespace
as a directory hierarchy
SYNOPSIS
mount_sysctlfs |
[-r]
[-o
mntopts] sysctlfs
mount_point |
DESCRIPTION
The
mount_sysctlfs program provides the
sysctl(8) hierarchy through the
file system namespace. It is possible to browse the tree, query node values
and modify them. By default, the node contents are interpreted as ASCII. If
the
-r flag is given, the server uses raw mode and displays
node contents as they are received from the kernel (binary).
SEE ALSO

puffs(4),

HISTORY
The
mount_sysctlfs utility first appeared in
NetBSD 5.0.
CAVEATS
Raw mode [
-r] does not currently
support node modification.
