[Libguestfs] [PATCH v6 4/5] New API: filesystem_walk

Matteo Cafasso noxdafox at gmail.com
Mon May 2 20:51:23 UTC 2016


Library's counterpart of the daemon's internal_filesystem_walk command.

It writes the daemon's command output on a temporary file and parses it,
deserialising the XDR formatted tsk_dirent structs.

It returns to the caller the list of tsk_dirent structs generated by the
internal_filesystem_walk command.

+All entries in the filesystem are returned, excluding C<.> and

+Filesystem reference number of the node. It migh be C<0>
+if the node has been deleted.
+
+=item 'tsk_type'
+
+Basic file type information.
+See below for a detailed list of values.
+
+=item 'tsk_size'
+
+File size in bytes. It migh be C<-1>
+if the node has been deleted.
+
+=item 'tsk_name'
+
+The file path relative to its directory.
+
+=item 'tsk_flags'
+
+Bitfield containing extra information regarding the entry.
+
+The first bit controls the allocation state of the entry.
+If set to C<1>, the file is allocated and visible within the filesystem.
+Otherwise, the file has been deleted.
+Under certain circumstances, the function C<download_inode>
+can be used to recover deleted files.
+
+The second bit reports whether the metadata structure of the file
+has been reallocated.
+Filesystem such as NTFS and Ext2 or greater, separate the file name
+from the metadata structure.
+The bit is set to C<1> when the file name is in an unallocated state
+and the metadata structure is in an allocated one.
+This generally implies the metadata has been reallocated to a new file.
+Therefore, information such as file type and file size
+might not correspond with the ones of the original deleted entry.
