Since: 2.66

                  guint64 *time_read);

Gets a GUnixMountEntry for a given file path. If time_read is set, it will be filled with a unix timestamp for checking if the mounts have changed since with g_unix_mounts_changed_since().

If more mounts have the same mount path, the last matching mount is returned.

g_unix_mount_monitor_get ()

GUnixMountMonitor *
g_unix_mount_monitor_get (void);

Gets the GUnixMountMonitor for the current thread-default main context.

The mount monitor can be used to monitor for changes to the list of mounted filesystems as well as the list of mount points (ie: fstab entries).

You must only call g_object_unref() on the return value from under the same main context as you called this function.

Since: 2.44

g_unix_mount_monitor_new ()

GUnixMountMonitor *
g_unix_mount_monitor_new (void);

Deprecated alias for g_unix_mount_monitor_get().

This function was never a true constructor, which is why it was renamed.

g_unix_mount_monitor_set_rate_limit ()

void
g_unix_mount_monitor_set_rate_limit (GUnixMountMonitor *mount_monitor,
                                     int limit_msec);

This function does nothing.

Before 2.44, this was a partially-effective way of controlling the rate at which events would be reported under some uncommon circumstances. Since mount_monitor is a singleton, it also meant that calling this function would have side effects for other users of the monitor.

Since: 2.18

g_unix_is_mount_path_system_internal ()

gboolean
g_unix_is_mount_path_system_internal (const char *mount_path);

Determines if mount_path is considered an implementation of the OS. This is primarily used for hiding mountable and mounted volumes that only are used in the OS and has little to no relevance to the casual user.

g_unix_is_system_fs_type ()

gboolean
g_unix_is_system_fs_type (const char *fs_type);

Determines if fs_type is considered a type of file system which is only used in implementation of the OS. This is primarily used for hiding mounted volumes that are intended as APIs for programs to read, and system administrators at a shell; rather than something that should, for example, appear in a GUI. For example, the Linux /proc filesystem.

The list of file system types considered ‘system’ ones may change over time.

Since: 2.56

g_unix_is_system_device_path ()

gboolean
g_unix_is_system_device_path (const char *device_path);

Determines if device_path is considered a block device path which is only used in implementation of the OS. This is primarily used for hiding mounted volumes that are intended as APIs for programs to read, and system administrators at a shell; rather than something that should, for example, appear in a GUI. For example, the Linux /proc filesystem.

The list of device paths considered ‘system’ ones may change over time.

Since: 2.56
