NAME         top

       /proc/filesystems - supported filesystems

DESCRIPTION         top

       /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").
