NAME

       findfs - find a filesystem by label or UUID

SYNOPSIS

       findfs NAME=value

DESCRIPTION

       findfs will search the block devices in the system looking for a filesystem or partition
       with specified tag. The currently supported tags are:

       LABEL=<label>
           Specifies filesystem label.

       UUID=<uuid>
           Specifies filesystem UUID.

       PARTUUID=<uuid>
           Specifies partition UUID. This partition identifier is supported for example for GUID
           Partition Table (GPT) partition tables.

       PARTLABEL=<label>
           Specifies partition label (name). The partition labels are supported for example for
           GUID Partition Table (GPT) or MAC partition tables.

       If the filesystem or partition is found, the device name will be printed on stdout.

       The complete overview about filesystems and partitions you can get for example by

          lsblk --fs

          partx --show <disk>

          blkid

       -h, --help
           Display help text and exit.

       -V, --version
           Print version and exit.

EXIT STATUS

       0
           success

       1
           label or uuid cannot be found

       2
           usage error, wrong number of arguments or unknown option

ENVIRONMENT

       LIBBLKID_DEBUG=all
           enables libblkid debug output.
