<H2>SYNOPSIS</H2>
<B>findmnt</B>

<I>device</I>
[<B>--target</B>|<B>--mountpoint</B>]
<I>mountpoint</I>
<A NAME="lbAD">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
<B>findmnt</B>
will list all mounted filesystems or search for a filesystem. The
<B>findmnt</B>
command is able to search in
<I>/etc/fstab</I>,
<I>/etc/mtab</I>
or
<I>/proc/self/mountinfo</I>.
If
<I>device</I>
or
<I>mountpoint</I>
is not given, all filesystems are shown.
<P>
The device may be specified by device name, major:minor numbers,
filesystem label or UUID, or partition label or UUID. Note that
<B>findmnt</B>
follows
<B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?8+mount">mount</A></B>(8)
behavior where a device name may be interpreted
as a mountpoint (and vice versa) if the <B>--target</B>, <B>--mountpoint</B> or
<B>--source</B> options are not specified.
<P>
The command prints all mounted filesystems in the tree-like format by default.
<A NAME="lbAE">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>OPTIONS</H2>
<DL COMPACT>
<DT id="1"><B>-A</B>,<B> --all</B>
<DD>
Disable all built-in filters and print all filesystems.
<DT id="2"><B>-a</B>,<B> --ascii</B>
<DD>
Use ascii characters for tree formatting.
<DT id="3"><B>-b</B>,<B> --bytes</B>
<DD>
Print the SIZE, USED and AVAIL columns in bytes rather than in a human-readable format.
<DT id="4"><B>-C</B>,<B> --nocanonicalize</B>
<DD>
Do not canonicalize paths at all. This option affects the comparing of paths
and the evaluation of tags (LABEL, UUID, etc.).
<DT id="5"><B>-c</B>,<B> --canonicalize</B>
<DD>
Canonicalize all printed paths.
<DT id="6"><B>-D</B>,<B> --df</B>
<DD>
Imitate the output of
<B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?1+df">df</A></B>(1).
This option is equivalent to
<B>-o&nbsp;SOURCE,FSTYPE,SIZE,USED,AVAIL,USE%,TARGET</B>
but excludes all pseudo filesystems.
Use <B>--all</B> to print all filesystems.
<DT id="7"><B>-d</B>,<B> --direction </B><I>word</I>
<DD>
The search direction, either
<B>forward</B>
or
<B>backward</B>.
<DT id="8"><B>-e</B>,<B> --evaluate</B>
<DD>
Convert all tags (LABEL, UUID, PARTUUID or PARTLABEL) to the corresponding device names.
<DT id="9"><B>-F</B>,<B> --tab-file </B><I>path</I>
<DD>
Search in an alternative file. If used with <B>--fstab</B>, <B>--mtab</B>
or <B>--kernel</B>, then it overrides the default paths. If specified more
than once, then tree-like output is disabled (see the <B>--list</B> option).
<DT id="10"><B>-f</B>,<B> --first-only</B>
<DD>
Print the first matching filesystem only.
<DT id="11"><B>-h</B>,<B> --help</B>
<DD>
Display help text and exit.
<DT id="12"><B>-i</B>,<B> --invert</B>
<DD>
Invert the sense of matching.
<DT id="13"><B>-J</B>,<B> --json</B>
<DD>
Use JSON output format.
<DT id="14"><B>-k</B>,<B> --kernel</B>
<DD>
Search in
<I>/proc/self/mountinfo</I>.
The output is in the tree-like format. This is the default. The output
contains only mount options maintained by kernel (see also <B>--mtab)</B>.
<DT id="15"><B>-l</B>,<B> --list</B>
<DD>
Use the list output format. This output format is automatically enabled if the
output is restricted by the <B>-t</B>, <B>-O</B>, <B>-S</B> or <B>-T</B>
option and the option <B>--submounts</B> is not used or if more that one
source file (the option <B>-F</B>) is specified.
<DT id="16"><B>-M</B>,<B> --mountpoint </B><I>path</I>
<DD>
Explicitly define the mountpoint file or directory. See also <B>--target</B>.
<DT id="17"><B>-m</B>,<B> --mtab</B>
<DD>
Search in
<I>/etc/mtab</I>.
The output is in the list format by default (see <B>--tree</B>). The output may include user
space mount options.
<DT id="18"><B>-N</B>,<B> --task </B><I>tid</I>
<DD>
Use alternative namespace /proc/&lt;tid&gt;/mountinfo rather than the default
/proc/self/mountinfo. If the option is specified more than once, then
tree-like output is disabled (see the <B>--list</B> option). See also the
<B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?1+unshare">unshare</A></B>(1)
command.
<DT id="19"><B>-n</B>,<B> --noheadings</B>
<DD>
Do not print a header line.
<DT id="20"><B>-O</B>,<B> --options </B><I>list</I>
<DD>
Limit the set of printed filesystems. More than one option
may be specified in a comma-separated list. The
<B>-t</B>
and
<B>-O</B>
options are cumulative in effect. It is different from
<B>-t</B>
in that each option is matched exactly; a leading
<I>no</I>
at the beginning does not have global meaning. The &quot;no&quot; can used for
individual items in the list. The &quot;no&quot; prefix interpretation can be disabled
by &quot;+&quot; prefix.
<DT id="21"><B>-o</B>,<B> --output </B><I>list</I>
<DD>
Define output columns. See the <B>--help</B> output to get a list of the
currently supported columns. The
<B>TARGET</B>
column contains tree formatting if the
<B>--list</B>
or
<B>--raw</B>
options are not specified.
<P>
The default list of columns may be extended if <I>list</I> is
specified in the format <I>+list</I> (e.g. <B>findmnt -o +PROPAGATION</B>).
<DT id="22"><B>--output-all</B>
<DD>
Output almost all available columns. The columns that require
<B>--poll</B>
are not included.
<DT id="23"><B>-P</B>,<B> --pairs</B>
<DD>
Use key=&quot;value&quot; output format. All potentially unsafe characters are hex-escaped (\x&lt;code&gt;).
<DT id="24"><B>-p</B>,<B> --poll</B>[<I>=list</I>]
<DD>
Monitor changes in the /proc/self/mountinfo file. Supported actions are: mount,
umount, remount and move. More than one action may be specified in a
comma-separated list. All actions are monitored by default.
<P>
The time for which <B>--poll</B> will block can be restricted with the <B>--timeout</B>
or <B>--first-only</B> options.
<P>
The standard columns always use the new version of the information from the
mountinfo file, except the umount action which is based on the original
information cached by
<B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?8+findmnt">findmnt</A></B>(8).
The poll mode allows to use extra columns:
<DL COMPACT><DT id="25"><DD>
<DL COMPACT>
<DT id="26"><B>ACTION</B>
<DD>
mount, umount, move or remount action name; this column is enabled by default
<DT id="27"><B>OLD-TARGET</B>
<DD>
available for umount and move actions
<DT id="28"><B>OLD-OPTIONS</B>
<DD>
available for umount and remount actions
</DL>
</DL>
<DT id="29"><B>--pseudo</B>
<DD>
Print only pseudo filesystems.
<DT id="30"><B>-R</B>,<B> --submounts</B>
<DD>
Print recursively all submounts for the selected filesystems. The restrictions
defined by options <B>-t</B>, <B>-O</B>, <B>-S</B>, <B>-T</B> and
<B>--direction</B> are not applied to submounts. All submounts are always
printed in tree-like order. The option enables the tree-like output format by
default. This option has no effect for <B>--mtab</B> or <B>--fstab</B>.
<DT id="31"><B>-r</B>,<B> --raw</B>
<DD>
Use raw output format. All potentially unsafe characters are hex-escaped (\x&lt;code&gt;).
<DT id="32"><B>--real</B>
<DD>
Print only real filesystems.
<DT id="33"><B>-S</B>,<B> --source </B><I>spec</I>
<DD>
Explicitly define the mount source. Supported specifications are <I>device</I>,
<I>maj</I><B>:</B><I>min</I>, <B>LABEL=</B><I>label</I>, <B>UUID=</B><I>uuid</I>,
<B>PARTLABEL=</B><I>label</I> and <B>PARTUUID=</B><I>uuid</I>.
<DT id="34"><B>-s</B>,<B> --fstab</B>
<DD>
Search in
<I>/etc/fstab</I>.
The output is in the list format (see <B>--list</B>).
<DT id="35"><B>-T</B>,<B> --target </B><I>path</I>
<DD>
Define the mount target. If <I>path</I>
is not a mountpoint file or directory, then
<B>findmnt</B>
checks the <I>path</I> elements in reverse order to get the mountpoint (this feature is
supported only when searching in kernel files and unsupported for <B>--fstab</B>). It's
recommended to use the option <B>--mountpoint</B> when checks of <I>path</I> elements are
unwanted and <I>path</I> is a strictly specified mountpoint.
<DT id="36"><B>-t</B>,<B> --types </B><I>list</I>
<DD>
Limit the set of printed filesystems. More than one type may be
specified in a comma-separated list. The list of filesystem types can be
prefixed with
<B>no</B>
to specify the filesystem types on which no action should be taken. For
more details see
<B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?8+mount">mount</A></B>(8).
<DT id="37"><B>--tree</B>
<DD>
Enable tree-like output if possible. The options is silently ignored for
tables where is missing child-parent relation (e.g. fstab).
<DT id="38"><B>-U</B>,<B> --uniq</B>
<DD>
Ignore filesystems with duplicate mount targets, thus effectively skipping
over-mounted mount points.
<DT id="39"><B>-u</B>,<B> --notruncate</B>
<DD>
Do not truncate text in columns. The default is to not truncate the
<B>TARGET</B>,
<B>SOURCE</B>,
<B>UUID</B>,
<B>LABEL</B>,
<B>PARTUUID</B>,
<B>PARTLABEL</B>
columns. This option disables text truncation also in all other columns.
<DT id="40"><B>-v</B>,<B> --nofsroot</B>
<DD>
Do not print a [/dir] in the SOURCE column for bind mounts or btrfs subvolumes.
<DT id="41"><B>-w</B>,<B> --timeout </B><I>milliseconds</I>
<DD>
Specify an upper limit on the time for which <B>--poll</B> will block, in milliseconds.
<DT id="42"><B>-x</B>,<B> --verify</B>
<DD>
Check mount table content. The default is to verify
<I>/etc/fstab</I>
parsability and usability. It's possible to use this option also with <B>--tab-file</B>.
It's possible to specify source (device) or target (mountpoint) to filter mount table. The option
<B>--verbose</B> forces findmnt to print more details.
<DT id="43"><B>--verbose</B>
<DD>
Force findmnt to print more information (<B>--verify</B> only for now).
