It is responsible for creation of ggate devices and forwarding I/O requests between geom_gate.ko kernel module and ggated(8) network daemon. Avail- able commands: create Connect to given ggated(8) daemon and create a ggate provider related to the given remote file or device. attach Attach a worker process to an existing ggate provider (create a new connection to the ggated(8) daemon). destroy Destroy the given ggate provider. list List ggate providers. Available options: -f Forcibly destroy ggate provider (cancels all pending requests). -n Do not use TCP_NODELAY option on TCP sockets. -o ro | wo | rw Specify permission to use when opening the file or device: read-only (ro), write-only (wo), or read-write (rw). Default is rw. -p port Port to connect to on the remote host. Default is 3080. -q queue_size Number of pending I/O requests that can be queued before they will start to be canceled. Default is 1024. -R rcvbuf Size of receive buffer to use. Default is 131072 (128kB). -S sndbuf Size of send buffer to use. Default is 131072 (128kB). -s sectorsize Sector size for ggate provider. If not specified, it is taken from device, or set to 512 bytes for files. -t timeout Number of seconds to wait before an I/O request will be canceled. 0 means no timeout. Default is 30. -u unit Unit number to use. -v Do not fork, run in foreground and print debug informa- tions on standard output. host Remote host to connect to. path Path to a regular file or device.
