[Libguestfs] [PATCH 1/2] Add followsymlinks flag to is-file, is-dir, is-blockdev, is-chardev, is-fifo and is-socket APIs.

Richard W.M. Jones rjones at redhat.com
Fri Jun 14 10:06:23 UTC 2013


From: "Richard W.M. Jones" <rjones at redhat.com>

This adds an extra optional boolean 'followsymlinks' flag to those 6
is-* APIs.  If the flag is true, then symlinks are followed, ie. we
use stat instead of lstat in the test.

For the rationale behind this change, see:
