System Mount Service

/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-mountfsd
systemd-mountfsd is a system service that dissects disk images,
and returns mount file descriptors for the file systems contained
therein to clients, via a Varlink IPC API.
The disk images provided must contain a raw file system image or
must follow the Discoverable Partitions Specification[1]. Before
mounting any file systems authenticity of the disk image is
established in one or a combination of the following ways:
1. If the disk image is located in a regular file in one of the
directories /var/lib/machines/, /var/lib/portables/,
/var/lib/extensions/, /var/lib/confexts/ or their
counterparts in the /etc/, /run/, /usr/lib/ it is assumed to
be trusted.
2. If the disk image contains a Verity enabled disk image, along
with a signature partition with a key in the kernel keyring
or in /etc/verity.d/ (and related directories) the disk image
is considered trusted.
This service provides one Varlink[2] service:
io.systemd.MountFileSystem which accepts a file descriptor to a
regular file or block device, and returns a number of file
descriptors referring to an fsmount() file descriptor the client
may then attach to a path of their choice.
The returned mounts are automatically allowlisted in the
per-user-namespace allowlist maintained by
systemd-nsresourced.service(8).
The file systems are automatically fsck'ed before mounting.
