24 Linux File Systems: liboskit_linux_fs.a

     

The Linux filesystem library consists of the Linux virtual and real filesystem code along with glue code to export the OSKit filesystem interface (See Chapter 7).

The header file <oskit/fs/linux_filesystems.h> determines which of the real Linux real filesystems, e.g. ext2, iso9660, are compiled into liboskit_linux_fs.a. All the filesystems listed in that file will compile, but only ext2, msdos, vfat, and iso9660 have been tested.

The Linux filesystem library provides two additional interfaces:

fs_linux_init
Initialize the Linux fs library.
fs_linux_mount
Mount a filesystem via the Linux fs library
