## Description

This interface is used for org.freedesktop.UDisks2.Block devices that contain a mountable filesystem.

## Method Details

### The SetLabel() method

    SetLabel (IN  s     label,
              IN  a{sv} options);

Sets the filesystem label.

`IN s `label``: | The label to set.
`IN a{sv} `options``: | Options (currently unused except for standard options).

### The SetUUID() method

    SetUUID (IN  s     uuid,
             IN  a{sv} options);

Sets the filesystem UUID value.

`IN s `uuid``: | The UUID to set.
`IN a{sv} `options``: | Options (currently unused except for standard options).

Since 2.10.0

### The Mount() method

    Mount (IN  a{sv} options,
           OUT s     mount_path);

Mounts the filesystem.

The directory the filesystem will be mounted in is determined by looking at data related to the device or filesystem (such the filesystem UUID and label) and will be created automatically except if the device the filesystem resides on is referenced in the `/etc/fstab` file, see below. In either case, the directory the filesystem is mounted in, is returned in `mount_path` on success - it is usually a sub-directory of `/run/media/$USER` but note that any directory may be returned.

The filesystem type to use can be overridden with the `fstype` option and mount options (a comma-separated string) can be given in `options` option. Note that both the mount options and filesystem types are validated against a (small) whitelist to avoid unexpected privilege escalation. The filesystem type is by default determined by the "IdType" property. The `fstype` option doesn't typically need to be specified, primarily intended as an override in corner cases.

If the `as-user` option is set, the filesystem is mounted on behalf of the specified user instead of the calling one. This has usually an effect on the returned `mount_path` and it also allows that user to unmount the filesystem later. This option expects a user name, not a UID.

If the device in question is referenced in the `/etc/fstab` file, the mount command is called directly (as root) and the given options or filesystem type given in `options` are ignored.

If `x-udisks-auth` is specified as an option for the device in the `/etc/fstab` file, then the mount command is run as the calling user, without performing any authorization check mentioned above. If this fails because of insufficient permissions, an authorization check is performed (which typically results in the user having to authenticate as an administrator). If authorized, the mount command is then run as root.

The filesystem should be unmounted using the Unmount() method.

If the device is removed without being unmounted (e.g. the user yanking the device or pulling the media out) or unmounted in a way that bypasses the Unmount() method (e.g. unmounted by the super-user by using the umount(8) command directly), the device will be unmounted (if needed) and/or the mount point will be cleaned up.

`IN a{sv} `options``: | Options - known options (in addition to standard options) includes `fstype` (of type 's'), `as-user` (of type 's') and `options` (of type 's').
`OUT s `mount_path``: | The filesystem path where the device was mounted.

### The Unmount() method

    Unmount (IN  a{sv} options);

Unmount a mounted device.

If the device in question was mounted by the calling user via the Mount() method the filesystem is unmounted without any authorization checks. Otherwise, an authorization check is performed (which typically results in the user having to authenticate as an administrator). If authorized, the filesystem is unmounted.

If the mountpoint was previously created by udisks it is guaranteed it will be removed upon returning from this method call.

If the filesystem is busy, this operation fails with the error `org.freedesktop.UDisks2.Error.DeviceBusy` unless the `force` option is used.

`IN a{sv} `options``: | Options - known options (in addition to standard options) includes `force` (of type 'b').

### The Resize() method

    Resize (IN  t     size,
            IN  a{sv} options);

Resizes the filesystem.

Shrinking operations need to move data which causes this action to be slow. The filesystem-resize job for the object might expose progress.

`IN t `size``: | The target size in bytes, 0 for maximum.
`IN a{sv} `options``: | Options (currently unused except for standard options).

Since 2.7.2

### The Check() method

    Check (IN  a{sv} options,
           OUT b     consistent);

`options`: Options (currently unused except for standard options). `consistent`: Whether the filesystem is undamaged. `since`: 2.7.2

Checks the filesystem for consistency avoiding any modifications or repairs.

Mounted or unsupported filesystems will result in an error.

`IN a{sv} `options``: |
`OUT b `consistent``: |

### The Repair() method

    Repair (IN  a{sv} options,
            OUT b     repaired);

`options`: Options (currently unused except for standard options). `repaired`: Whether the filesystem could be successfully repaired. `since`: 2.7.2

Tries to repair the filesystem.

Mounted or unsupported filesystems will result in an error.

`IN a{sv} `options``: |
`OUT b `repaired``: |

### The TakeOwnership() method

    TakeOwnership (IN  a{sv} options);

`options`: Options (in addition to standard options) includes `recursive` (of type 'b'). `since`: 2.7.2

Changes ownership of the filesystem to the UID and GID of the calling user.

Filesystems that don't support ownership result in an error.

`IN a{sv} `options``: |

## Property Details

### The "MountPoints" property

    MountPoints  readable   aay

An array of filesystems paths for where the file system on the device is mounted. If the device is not mounted, this array is empty.

### The "Size" property

    Size  readable   t

The size of the filesystem. This is the amount of

bytes used on the block device representing an outer filesystem boundary. If this is smaller than org.freedesktop.Udisks2.Block.Size, then the filesystem can be made larger with Resize.

If the size is unknown, the property is zero. Currently limited to xfs and ext filesystems only.

Please note that reading value of this property typically causes some I/O to read the filesystem superblock. Unlike the rest of the properties this one is set to be retrieved on-demand and is not proactively cached by the daemon.
