Now that my patch to escape characters in /proc/mounts has been applied, I'll get back to what I was thinking about back in June. I would like to have a way to list Windows volume roots in Cygwin, and it seems to make sense to me to expose them via getmntent, /proc/mounts, etc. The way I see this working is probably to replace the available_drives mechanism for enumerating mounts in favor of using FindFirst/NextVolumeW and GetVolumePathNamesForVolumeNameW to enumerate cygdrive mount points.
Before I expend any effort actually trying to do this, I wanted to ask if this is desirable/acceptable to do, or if there's some "institutional knowledge" as to why that won't actually work. -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
