3 9pserve \- announce and multiplex 9P service
11 On Plan 9, when a user-level file server mounts itself into a name space
14 the Plan 9 kernel multiplexes the potentially many processes
15 accessing the server into a single 9P conversation.
16 The user-level server need not concern itself with how many
17 processes are accessing it or with cleaning up after a process when it
21 takes the place of the Plan 9 kernel, multiplexing clients onto
22 a single server conversation and cleaning up after clients when
23 they hang up unexpectedly.
26 announces a 9P service on
28 and multiplexes any 9P clients connecting to
30 into a single conversation with a 9P server on
32 standard input and output.
33 When a client hangs up,
35 flushes any outstanding 9P transactions
36 and clunks any outstanding fids belonging to the client.
