[PATCH 3/8] Add automount support

Sascha Hauer s.hauer at pengutronix.de
Sun Mar 18 10:26:39 EDT 2012


This patch adds an automount command which makes it possible
to execute a script when a certain directory is first accessed.
It's the commands responsibility to make this directory available
(bringing devices up and mounting it). This results in automount
support which makes sure that from the shell every file can
be accessed without having to care for device bringup. Bringing
up devices may be expensive (USB, dhcp). The automount support
makes it easy for the environment to bringup devices when they
are actually needed.

+	  automount allows it to automatically execute a script when a certain
+	  directory is accessed for the first time. The script should then make
