  .Dt FUSE_LOOP 3
  .Os
  .Sh NAME
  .Nm fuse_loop ,
  .Nm fuse_loop_mt
  .Nd wait for and process FUSE messages
  .Sh SYNOPSIS
  .In fuse.h
  .Ft int
  .Fn fuse_loop "struct fuse *fuse"
  .Ft int
  .Fn fuse_loop_mt "struct fuse *fuse"
  .Sh DESCRIPTION
  .Fn fuse_loop
  reads from the FUSE device and blocks, waiting for the
  kernel to send it fbuf messages.
  Each of these specifies a FUSE file system operation to execute.
  The callbacks to invoke are specified by calling
  .Xr fuse_new 3
  or
  .Xr fuse_setup 3
  prior to calling
  .Fn fuse_loop .
  .Pp
  .Fn fuse_loop
  will return when it reads the FBT_DESTROY message, which indicates that
  the file system is being unmounted.
  .Pp
  If FUSE signaler handlers have been installed and either SIGHUP, SIGINT
  or SIGTERM is received then
  .Fn fuse_loop
  will attempt to unmount the file system.
  See
  .Xr fuse_set_signal_handlers 3 .
  .Pp
  .Fn fuse_loop_mt
  is a multi-threaded variant that allows the file system to process
  multiple file system operations in parallel.
  This is not implemented on
  .Ox .
  .Sh RETURN VALUES
  .Fn fuse_loop
  will return 0 on success and -1 on failure.
  .Pp
  .Fn fuse_loop_mt
  always returns -1.
