Provide an fspick() system call that can be used to pick an existing mountpoint into an fs_context which can thereafter be used to reconfigure a superblock (equivalent of the superblock side of -o remount). This looks like: int fd = fspick(AT_FDCWD, "/mnt", FSPICK_CLOEXEC | FSPICK_NO_AUTOMOUNT); fsconfig(fd, FSCONFIG_SET_FLAG, "intr", NULL, 0); fsconfig(fd, FSCONFIG_SET_FLAG, "noac", NULL, 0); fsconfig(fd, FSCONFIG_CMD_RECONFIGURE, NULL, NULL, 0); At the point of fspick being called, the file descriptor referring to the filesystem context is in exactly the same state as the one that was created by fsopen() after fsmount() has been successfully called.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
