NAME
     /proc/filesystems - supported filesystems

DESCRIPTION
     /proc/filesystems
	    A text listing of the filesystems which are supported by the kernel,
	    namely filesystems which were compiled into the kernel or whose ker-
	    nel	 modules are currently loaded.	(See also filesystems(5).)  If a
	    filesystem is marked with "nodev", this means that it does	not  re-
	    quire  a  block device to be mounted (e.g., virtual filesystem, net-
	    work 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").
