Description

This type is used for monitoring mounted devices and swap devices in use. On Linux, this is done by inspecting and monitoring the /proc/self/mountinfo and /proc/swaps files.

Functions

udisks_mount_get_dev ()

dev_t
udisks_mount_get_dev (UDisksMount *mount);

Gets the device number for mount .

Parameters

mount

A UDisksMount.

Returns

A dev_t.

udisks_mount_get_mount_type ()

UDisksMountType
udisks_mount_get_mount_type (UDisksMount *mount);

Gets the UDisksMountType for mount .

Parameters

mount

A UDisksMount.

Returns

A value from the UDisksMountType enumeration.

udisks_mount_get_mount_path ()

const gchar *
udisks_mount_get_mount_path (UDisksMount *mount);

Gets the mount path for a UDISKS_MOUNT_TYPE_FILESYSTEM-type mount.

It is a programming error to call this on any other type of UDisksMount.

Parameters

mount

A UDisksMount

Returns

A string owned by mount . Do not free.

udisks_mount_compare ()

gint
udisks_mount_compare (UDisksMount *mount,
                      UDisksMount *other_mount);

Comparison function for comparing two UDisksMount objects.

Parameters

mount	A UDisksMount
other_mount	Another UDisksMount.

Returns

Negative value if mount < other_mount ; zero if mount = other_mount ; positive value if mount > other_mount .

udisks_mount_monitor_new ()

UDisksMountMonitor *
udisks_mount_monitor_new (void);

Creates a new UDisksMountMonitor object.

Signals are emitted in the thread-default main loop that this function is called from.

Returns

A UDisksMountMonitor. Free with g_object_unref().

udisks_mount_monitor_get_mounts_for_dev ()

GList *
udisks_mount_monitor_get_mounts_for_dev
                               (UDisksMountMonitor *monitor,
                                dev_t dev);

Gets all UDisksMount objects for dev .

Parameters

monitor	A UDisksMountMonitor.
dev	A dev_t device number.

Returns

A GList of UDisksMount objects. The returned list must be freed with g_list_free() after each element has been freed with g_object_unref().

udisks_mount_monitor_is_dev_in_use ()

gboolean
udisks_mount_monitor_is_dev_in_use (UDisksMountMonitor *monitor,
                                    dev_t dev,
                                    UDisksMountType *out_type);

Checks if dev is in use (e.g. mounted or swap-area in-use).

Parameters

monitor	A UDisksMountMonitor.
dev	A dev_t device number.
out_type	Return location for mount type, if in use or `NULL`.	[out allow-none]

Returns

TRUE if in use, FALSE otherwise.

Types and Values
