NAME
/proc/filesystems - supported filesystems
DESCRIPTION
/proc/filesystems
A text listing of the filesystems which are supported by
the kernel, namely filesystems which were compiled into
the kernel or whose kernel modules are currently loaded.
(See also filesystems(5).) If a filesystem is marked with
"nodev", this means that it does not require a block
device to be mounted (e.g., virtual filesystem, network
filesystem).
Incidentally, this file may be used by mount(8) when no
filesystem is specified and it didn't manage to determine
the filesystem type. Then filesystems contained in this
file are tried (excepted those that are marked with
"nodev").
