"dev", and if you want to enable suid-binaries, pass "suid".

"ro" (equivalent to passing the "-ro" option) and "noexec" may also be

interesting. For a complete list see the section

`FILESYSTEM-INDEPENDENT MOUNT OPTIONS` in mount(8).

`FILESYSTEM-INDEPENDENT MOUNT OPTIONS` in mount(8). On MacOS, "local",

"noapplexattr", "noappledouble" may be interesting.

Note that unlike "-o", "-ko" is a regular option and must be passed BEFORE
|
||||
the directories. Example:
|
||||
|
||||
gocryptfs -ko noexec /tmp/foo /tmp/bar
|

|

#### -longnames
|

Store names longer than 176 bytes in extra files (default true)

|

"-o COMMA-SEPARATED-OPTIONS" at the end of the command line.
|

For example, "-o q,zerokey" is equivalent to passing "-q -zerokey".
|
||||
|
||||
Note that you can only use options that are understood by gocryptfs
|
||||
with "-o". If you want to pass special flags to the kernel, you should
|
||||
use "-ko" (*k*ernel *o*ption). This is different in libfuse-based
|
||||
filesystems, that automatically pass any "-o" options they do not
|
||||
understand along to the kernel.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
gocryptfs /tmp/foo /tmp/bar -o q,zerokey
|
||||
|
||||
#### -openssl bool/"auto"
|
||||
Use OpenSSL instead of built-in Go crypto (default "auto"). Using
|
||||
built-in crypto is 4x slower unless your CPU has AES instructions and
|
||||
you are using Go 1.6+. In mode "auto", gocrypts chooses the faster
|
||||
option.

Read password from the specified file. This is a shortcut for

specifying '-extpass="/bin/cat -- FILE"'.
